Alumni Reunion Trip: Thailand

by: Loop Abroad

5 (26)VerifiedSince 2009

This 10-day program is open to Loop Abroad alumni (students and staff) and their partners, family, and friends. We are so excited to show you our favorite people, places, foods, and activities in Chiang Mai, Thailand. We first offered this trip for our 15th anniversary, and it was such a hit that we’re doing it again! We offer this trip at a VERY discounted price, hoping it can be accessible for most people. You can stay and travel on your own after, or skip activities and do your own thing (at your own expense). You will still need to fill out enrollment forms, including the medical form that needs to be signed by a doctor. This program is for alumni of Loop Abroad or CELA Belize programs (in-person or virtual, students or staff, any location). Alumni enrolling in this trip may also bring their partner, friends, or family members. Please note that many activities are outdoors, in hot weather, and require participants to be able to walk moderate distances on their own. Some activities may not be accessible to young children. If you have questions about particular activities for your family, please ask!

Loop Abroad is amazing. I traveled with them for the first time in 2016 and had an incredible time. It was no question when the alumni trip was proposed. The Loop staff are caring, professional, and so much fun.

An amazing experience for someone that thought they would never get an opportunity to go to another country. I was able to bond with my daughter more and learn so much about Thailand. Food-culture-experience = amazing!

All of us alumni felt very special and loved in Thailand. We had a blast and I loved everyone I met. The art museum should definitely be part of all of the students' itineraries. The Thai staff are the absolute best!

Loop Abroad hit it out of the park (again!) with this alumni trip. We had the best time and everyone from the staff to the alumnis' family/friends were amazing. We made lifelong memories and had another unforgettable trip. I'm so happy I had this opportunity to join a program again.

I had been hearing about Thailand and Elephant Nature Park for years (because my wife had been previously.) I had high expectations, but this trip was better than anythying I could have expected. The trip leaders were amazing and we made friends from around the world. Best trip ever!

I loved meeting new people and growing our family one trip at a time. Every year I get to meet new and wonderful people. It warms my heart like nothing else. A trip you can do over and over again. You definitely should, too.

Thailand helped me expand my horizons in food beyond what I thought I could eat and I love it. The Elephant Nature Park and Sticky Waterfalls were my favorite places to visit. I can't wait for my next Loop program!

You have to experience it yourself

This alumni trip bas been such an amazing experience. I highly recommend Loop Abroad and the Thailand programs to everyone I meet that is considering studying abroad. Thailand and this trip have had an impact on me and my life in ways I can't explain. You'd have to experience it for yourself to understand.
