Your Local Guide

Nicha Explorations logo

Nicha Exploration was established in 2022 by Bo Srivalwat with a passion to make vacationing to Southeast Asia, her home region, special to everyone. Bo was born and raised in Thailand. Growing up, she found joy and peace through traveling and exploring different cultures and activities.

During her time at business school, Bo also led the Thailand Cultural Trek for the Wharton Southeast Asia Club, utilizing her expertise as a local, as well as her understanding about traveling as an active traveler herself. She was overwhelmed by the positive feedback she received from the trek members and decided to start Nicha Exploration. With local expertise and the love of their country and culture, the Nicha team crafts vacation experiences that provide not only ultimate leisure but also personal growth and unique experiences for travelers.

Fantastic experience

I had a fantastic time traveling with the Nicha team to Vietnam and Thailand. They planned a series of thoughtful, authentic, and fun excursions for us. The tour guides were informative, kind, and engaging. Highly recommend traveling with them if you’re interested in exploring a new place in a fun and authentic way. As an MBA grad, founder Bo knows how to strike the right balance of high quality stays, enjoyable cultural and educational outings, delicious meals, and energetic nights out.

High quality of services

From planning, execution to finish of the retreat, I have been fully supported by Bo from Nicha Exploration. All of my opinions were heard and adjustments were made accordingly. Bo did really great on meeting expectations from me and every participants. Her responses were always prompt. There is literally nothing I can complain about Nicha Exploration's services.
