Rustic sea kayaking expedition combined with a stay in a 5 star resort...
Why should your students be the only ones to have an exciting Easter holiday? You've spent just as much time at school as them - more in fact, so why not reward yourself with a short break that's miles away, literally and possibly metaphorically, from school?
You'll get a change of scenery and culture and will hopefully go back to school bursting with enthusiasm for the new term. (On the first day, anyway!). KayakChang.com ( Hill Climb Activities sister company) offers a three day sea kayaking expedition around the Koh Chang Marine National Park in Thailand combined with a stay at the fantastic Amari Emerald Cove 5 star resort: www.amari.com/emeraldcove.
The expedition accommodation is in rustic Thai style bungalows. The price includes on expedition insurance, guided instruction, technical equipment, water, lunch, two nights of expedition accommodation and three nights in a 5 star resort. The expedition uses British instructors and equipment. KayakChang.com will give assistance with the booking of travel and accommodation to and from the Koh Chang.
