Day 1 – Bangkok Departure
Your journey begins in Bangkok as you step into the world of timeless luxury aboard The Blue Jasmine. Settle into your elegant cabin, enjoy a welcome cocktail in the Panorama Lounge, and watch the cityscape give way to lush countryside as the train glides northward.

Day 2 – Ayutthaya: The Lost Capital
Wake to breakfast on board before arriving in Ayutthaya, the ancient capital of Siam. A serene riverside lunch by lotus ponds sets the tone, followed by a private tuk-tuk ride through grand temple ruins, Buddha statues entwined with banyan roots, and timeless UNESCO World Heritage treasures. Return to the train for a fine dinner as the landscape drifts by.

Day 3 – Uthai Thani: Spirit of the River
Disembark for Uthai Thani, a lesser-known gem rich with spiritual resonance. Visit gilded temples, join locals in traditional almsgiving, and absorb the tranquil rhythm of riverside life. In the evening, check into a converted heritage hotel, blending modern comfort with authentic Thai character.

Day 4 – Cultural Workshops & Riverside Charm
Immerse yourself in Thailand’s living traditions. Learn pottery from local artisans, weave silk with master craftswomen, and visit workshops where goldsmiths preserve centuries-old techniques. Dinner tonight is a floating affair, enjoyed aboard a traditional rice barge drifting along a scenic river.

Day 5 – Sukhothai: Dawn of a Kingdom
Arrive in Sukhothai, the cradle of Thai civilization. Cycle or stroll through its UNESCO-listed Historical Park, where serene Buddha images, lotus-filled ponds, and evocative ruins tell the story of Thailand’s first capital. A hands-on pottery session connects you to the city’s artisanal roots before returning to a heritage hotel for the night.

Day 6 – Chiang Mai: Mountains & Elephants
Journey north to Chiang Mai, embraced by forested hills. Spend the day at an ethical elephant sanctuary, observing these gentle giants in a responsible setting. As evening falls, savor a farm-to-table dinner at a hidden mountaintop retreat, accompanied by classical music beneath the stars.

Day 7 – Chiang Mai: Market Life & Temples
Discover Chiang Mai’s vibrant old city. Wander bustling markets, visit glittering Lanna temples, and perhaps take part in a private meditation session with monks. In the afternoon, enjoy leisure time before cocktails in the Panorama Lounge and another evening of exceptional dining.

Day 8 – Scenic Return South
Reboard The Blue Jasmine for a leisurely southbound journey. This day is devoted to relaxation—unwind in the lounge with a book, share stories over fine wines, or simply gaze out of the window as Thailand’s countryside rolls past. A chef-curated farewell dinner is served onboard.
