Stamp Collecting
Forget luxury cars, designer labels and jewels — for serious globetrotters, passport stamps are the ultimate status symbol.
On a good trip, the most ambitious travellers can hope to collect two or three. But when you stay at Four Seasons Tented Camp Golden Triangle, you can conquer travel’s Holy Grail: three countries in one day without even stepping on a plane!
Your border-hopping day starts at the luxury Resort, nestled in a dense bamboo jungle in the Golden Triangle — so named because it’s the spot where Thailand, Burma and Laos meet. First, you’ll enjoy a private boat ride to Don Xao, an island on the Lao side of the Mekong River, where you can shop the village’s traditional handicrafts and cool down with Beer Lao, the local brew.
Next, your boat takes you back into Thailand to the historic town of Chiang Saen, home to ancient temples and a bustling market best explored by tuk-tuk — a small, motorized rickshaw. Finally, you’ll take a drive through the scenic countryside to Thailand’s northernmost point, the border town of Mae Sai, where you can actually walk across the border into the town of Tachilek, Burma. There, you can tour the famous golden Shwedagon Pagoda and end your perfect day with treats at the local Chinese Market.
