FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions)
1. Is the program suitable for all ages?
The program is suitable for anyone who wants to take a break from life and return to an even better one.
The program is especially rewarding for people with life experience (ages 35-95), who will best be able to appreciate this unique opportunity.
2. Is it possible to reserve a package shorter than 3 months?
Most packages are based on a 3-month stay, but in some cases shorter packages (45 – 60 days) can be arranged.
The concept is to take a break and give yourself the time to enjoy activities and acquaintances that cannot be accomplished on short trips and vacations (either organized or independent). If you wish to participate in courses, activities, get to know the culture and the people in a way that only locals can, and immerse yourself fully in a truly
different atmosphere, we recommend a stay of 3 months.
3. When is it possible and recommended to go?
Most program experiences can be enjoyed year round. However, different regions of Thailand have different climates. We will recommend the best time for your customized program based on the specific interests, activities and experiences you would like to include in your program.
4. How long in advance should I start planning my program?
We recommend that you start planning at least two months before the date of your visit. The earlier you start making plans, the more likely we will be able to book the best activities and accommodations.
Some activities (such as courses and volunteer activities) start at fixed times, so there is less flexibility to schedule them. Other activities can be scheduled almost every day. After you complete the form you find on the website and tell us about your preferences, we will suggest the optimal months for your stay.
5. Is it possible to change the program during my stay in Thailand?
During your stay, you will be accompanied by a personal escort/guide who will assist you with all your needs and help you make changes or reschedule your pre-arranged activities and schedule.
Please remember that some activities take place at fixed times and places, and cancellation or rescheduling is subject to a cancellation or changing fee
6. Is it possible to stay in Thailand after the end of my program?
Yes. Many of our clients do so. We can assist in arranging the visa required to extend your stay.
7. Who will I be in contact with me during my stay in Thailand?
Your personal escort/guide is always available to assist you, schedule visits, order and purchase services and products, and will do everything to make your wishes come true. During your stay, our local offices in Thailand are also available 24/7 to help with anything else you might need.
8. Are there medical limitations in going to Thailand?
Basically – no. Thailand is one of the best countries in the world for foreigners to stay, travel, vacation, and experience life. The country enjoys excellent (mainly private) health services. If you have any medical conditions or restrictions, please let us know in advance so that we can make the proper arrangements (food, medicines, information about
doctors who specialize in specific fields and hospitals in case of emergency, etc.).
9. Is it safe to live and travel in Thailand?
Thailand is one of the most popular tourist destinations and one of safest countries in the world for foreigners.
All accommodations are located in safe properties and neighborhoods.
10. Is it possible to request a guide who speaks languages other than English?
we will do our best to arrange a guide/assistant for you who speaks other languages, subject to availability.
11. Can my family or friends visit me/us during my/our stay in Thailand?
In most cases, family and friends can stay with you in your accommodations for up to two weeks during your program.
Hosting family members or friends in your apartment for a longer period requires approval and depends
on the nature of the accommodation (in a villa, apartment hotel, hotel room, etc.). Let us know in advance if you intend to invite family members or friends to stay with you.
12. How do I best create my personal plan?
You will complete our questionnaire and indicate your interests and preferred activities. Our experienced team will personally develop a plan for you, and where relevant we will give you several options to choose from.
You will also be able to consult directly with our team about your program.
13. Who will wait for me at the airport when I arrive?
You will be met at the airport in Thailand by our company representative, and your personal escort/guide will often be waiting for you at the airport, too.
14. What happens if I unexpectedly have to cancel my trip or cut my trip short before my program ends?
A cancellation before or during the program is subject to cancellation fees, according to terms of the packages that you will receive before finalizing your reservation. We recommend that you take out adequate insurance that covers travel, health, luggage, and cancellation fees.
15. Do I need a visa to enter and stay in Thailand?.
Citizens of many countries need no visa to enter and stay in Thailand as tourists for 30-90 days. If you need a visa, we will guide you on how to obtain a visa for the period of your stay if you need one, and we can also help you extend your visa if you decide to stay in Thailand after your program ends.
16. Do you help book flights?
Our company is not in the business of booking international flights, but we can refer you to agents and websites where you can get excellent deals.
17. Will my accommodations in Thailand have an internet connection / WIFI?
Your accommodations, especially in the large cities, will almost always have internet connectivity, but more isolated locations sometimes have communication limitations.
We will soon be launching a communications system that you will be able to use to make personal 3D (holographic) calls, which will also allow you to keep in touch your loved ones in a unique way.
18. Can I order special foods (kosher, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, etc.)?
19. When will I receive my program itinerary, and the cost of the program?
A few days after your complete our questionnaire.
