General Notes:
• The itinerary mixes culture, nature, and relaxation, which should appeal to a variety of interests.
• Given the nature of some of the activities (e.g., Tiger Cave Temple), it might be worth reminding participants to bring cover for shoulders and knees, comfortable shoes, sunscreen, and hats.
• The Geminids meteor shower is a once-in-a-year event, so be sure to make the most of the opportunity to stargaze!
• Consider taking a few moments during the boat rides to appreciate the calmness of the water, as the floating accommodation experience in particular seems peaceful.
