Brilliant Bangkok

Bangkok is a dynamic setting for students to explore how history, religion, food, and contemporary city life meet. This six-day school trip begins in Thailand’s capital, where students connect with peers at Wellington Bangkok, visit significant cultural sites, and explore Thai identity through museum learning, market visits, and street food.

The journey then moves beyond the city to Saraburi Province and Khao Yai National Park. Through locally guided cultural activities, craft workshops, and forest-based learning, students consider how traditions, community life, and biodiversity are connected. Along the way, shared reflection helps students turn new experiences into lasting on-the-ground insights.
