SGA raw, intimate experience in lesser-known parts of Northern Thailand This has been my second adventure with Hinoki. What stood out for me on this trip was the privilege of experiencing Northern Thailand on a raw, intimate level in lesser-known parts of the country. Various local hosts and families welcomed us warmly into their homes, fed us like their own, and invited us to experience life in their villages. With these, I caught a glimpse of the fiercely independent and communal spirit of the hill tribe peoples, and their deep connection to nature. It remains clear to me that Hinoki deeply respects the local community, and takes into consideration what they value, and what they are willing to share with travellers, at their own pace. This trust has resulted in profound moments of generosity and spontaneity — and formed memories that will stay with me for a very long time. Looking forward to my next adventure with Hinoki!

GBNorthern Thailand Experience We loved traveling with Hinoki through northern Thailand! We came looking for a different kind of travel experience, one that we could never create on our own and that would expand our horizons... mission accomplished! The trip was curated beautifully and was nicely paced. Everything was well-thought out, unique and the coordination was seamless. The guides were amazing as were all the people involved in the trip who were so warm and welcoming. There were always fun surprises that turned into special moments and memories we'll have forever.
