The Best Trips for Using Unique Methods of Transport
Content and CRM Executive
Getting from A to B can be a bit boring, but that doesn’t have to be the case. Riding some vehicles can become an experience on its own, while unique regional methods of transport help immerse you in local culture. These are the best trips you can take to experience the weirdest, wackiest and coolest methods of transport around.
Tuk Tuk food tour – Thailand, Cambodia and Vietnam
Cynics will say it’s a cliche – you do you – but you can’t really come to Thailand without hopping onboard one of these cosy carriages and being swept around the chaotic streets of Bangkok. It’s an adorable form of traditional transport but it’s actually really handy for getting around quickly, thanks to its uncanny ability to squeeze down the narrowest of side streets. Our Thailand, Cambodia and Vietnam trip starts in the Thai capital and, on our first night, we’ll take a Tuk Tuk tour with a difference. We’ll use them to whiz around the city’s finest foodie establishments, from street vendors to markets and authentic local restaurants, our nifty little vehicles will get you from A to B without ever allowing its passengers to get hangry. It’s a really special way of taking in the sensory overload of this crazy, crazy city.

Hot air balloons across Cappadocia – Majestic Turkey
A classic image of Cappadocia, the surreal semi-arid region in central Turkey, will almost always include a flurry of colourful hot-air balloons floating above the region’s otherworldly rock formations. Having already explored Istanbul and Ankara, our Majestic Turkey trip rolls up to Cappadocia on day five. You’ll spend three nights here, during which you’ll explore unique cave dwellings, take a pottery workshop and discover an ancient underground city. However, Cappadocia is best seen with a bird’s eye view, so you’ll also get the chance to hop into a basket and fire your way high into the sky on an utterly mesmerising hot-air balloon ride. It’s the manifestation of your childhood dreams and an experience quite literally like no other. We understand if fear of heights prevents you, but can you really come to Cappadocia and not go for a ride?
