Thailand is the biggest exporter of orchids in the world. The farm you will visit is about 5 hectares and is completely devoted to growing orchids. One corner of the farm is designated for visitors and it showcases several types of orchids.
Next you will visit an orchard. The orchard grows pomelos, bananas, jack fruit and 3 types of mangos. Upon arriving at the orchard you will be greeted by the owners and served a sampling of the fruits from the orchard. This area is known as the best area for growing pomelos in Thailand.
Visit a place manufacturing local snacks (Khao Tung Hna Tung) made of ricecakes covered with sugar, pork hair (really dried pork meat rubbed into fine strands) and sesame seeds. The rice cakes are dried in a special hot house with a solar powered ventilation system. The hot house gets so hot on sunny days that the doors must be opened for several minutes before going in as temperatures reach 60 degrees inside. You can apply all the toppings yourselves to try different combinations.
After the tour is complete you will be taken back to your hotel safely.
