Full description
This is a 12-hour experience from Bangkok, built around Kanchanaburi War Cemetery, Burma Railway and Kanchanaburi. It is run by SST Global Tour, an operator we book with directly rather than through a reseller, which is why we can hold your place with them before we treat your booking as final.
Onsen bathing has a fixed etiquette: undress completely in the changing room, wash and rinse thoroughly at the seated showers before entering, keep the small towel out of the water, no swimwear, and no diving or swimming. Baths are separated by sex except in a few mixed rural ones. Tattoos are still refused at many public baths and larger resorts, though private baths, kashikiri, and an increasing number of tattoo-friendly onsen get round it; ask when booking. Water is typically 40 to 43°C, so ten minutes in and a rest is the rhythm. A ryokan stay includes a kaiseki dinner and futon bedding laid out while you eat.
The price covers Travel insurance for all participants, Private transportation with professional driver, Entrance fee to Rock Valley Hot Spring & Spa, Ticket for the Death Railway Train ride and Pickup and drop-off at your Bangkok hotel. It does not cover Meals and personal expenses, Optional activities not mentioned in the itinerary, Gratuities for driver and Additional spa treatments or services at Rock Valley, so budget for those separately. Everything included is listed in full on this page; if something is not on that list, assume it is not in the price.
Bangkok. We need at least one day's notice, and we confirm the date with SST Global Tour before treating your booking as final. If they cannot take your date we tell you and refund you rather than leave you waiting.

Traveler Reviews
Really enjoyable day, would recommend allowing as much time as possible to go in the fascinating Death railway museum before the train journey. Our driver and guide Mr Nut was very knowledgeable helpful and professional. A really great day out.
Picked up promptly at 07.00 from our hotel. M was a very pleasant and friendly chap. He was a careful driver in a good and comfortable Mitsubishi SUV. Drive to the cemetery at Kanchababuri took 2.5hrs with convenience stop. Commonwealth war graves cared for cemetery was beautifully maintained. Half an hour stop was sufficient, although I would have liked to visit the nearby museum as well. Short drive to the station and train journey. Pleasant 1.5 hour trip through the Thai countryside watching largely agricultural scenery pass by. Lunch stop in way to hot springs. While I was a bit sceptical
Keng was a fantastic guide. We had a great time. It’s a long day so be prepared but well worth it. Bit of history and time to relax
Nope was a brilliant guide. he put us at ease straight away. He was a fantastic driver, kept us informed we had a fantastic day.
Our guide San was amazing and very funny!! Fab time… well organised.. brilliant tour.. thank you!! We were very lucky as the hot spring was very quiet after lunch .. so had a very pleasant and relaxing experience. San took some great pictures of us!!
The whole day was magnificent ..Our driver/ guide Pongsan was absolutely fantastic. He is really the best driver/ guide anybody could wish for
Super fin - mr Moo talte måske ikke meget engelsk… men han gjorde et godt forsøg og gjorde alt hvad han kunne for vi fik en god dag… og det lykkes… en dejlig tur med både oplevelser og varme kilder
Activité très émouvante. Il faut avoir visité le musée avant pour bien s’imprégner de la tragédie. Notre chauffeur et guide a été aux petits soins. Il sait exactement où nous amener pour profiter des meilleurs spots où peu de touristes s’aventurent. Et la gentillesse avec. À recommander
la guide kat etait parfaite Nous avons tout aimé (le pont ,le train ) Nous avons adoré les sources chaudes nous etions seules a faire le differents bassins dans un environnement a couper le souffle Nous avons moins apprecié le memorial car nous nous sentions pas concerné ni tres a l aise mais cela reste qu un avis personnel on aurait prefere la visite d un temple
War eher teuer für Autofahrt ,Stop am Friedhof, Brücke am Kwai und 1 Stunde Fahrt 3.Klasse mit dem Highlight des Viaducts auf den letzten 500 Metern. Mittagessen war ok aber auch nicht schlecht . Thermalbad haben wir uns erspart weil es bei 35 grad im Schatten völlig ungesund währe
très bonne journée, avec détente dans les bains chauds locaux pour ce détendre en fin de journée
PongSan, notre guide, a été très professionnel et agréable. Il nous a donné plein d’explications et a pris sont temps avec nous. Au top Super activité, les sources chaude sont bien et le voyage en train est agréable.
