Smiling Albino Adventure in Thailand receives #1 listing by Outpost Magazine
February 4, 2004

BANGKOK, THAILAND - Smiling Albino, the Canadian-run adventure travel company in Thailand, has just received top honours in a survey of Outpost Magazine’s 100 Best Adventures of 2004. Smiling Albino’s 12-day 'Siamese Dream' adventure was listed #1 in Outpost’s Global Travel Guide Jan/Feb 2004*. Outpost Magazine, published six times per year, is Canada's foremost adventure travel publication. Smiling Albino’s mention in the global survey was also showcased on Canada.com’s travel feature.

Smiling Albino was started in 2000 by Canadians Scott Coates and Daniel Fraser. Smiling Albino adventures range from single-day trips around Bangkok using every form of transportation imaginable to a 12-day, multi-sport, cross-country epic. New Smiling Albino offerings include exclusive cycling adventures, multi-sport programs in northern and southern Thailand, as well as unique volunteering and teaching based adventure packages. Smiling Albino is a premier choice for authentic, safe and enriching personalized adventures in Thailand.

With Smiling Albino, guests are truly hosted in Thailand. Smiling Albino’s attention to detail and service is second to none in the industry.

*Corrections to text from Outpost Magazine:
Smiling Albino’s ‘Siamese Dream’ adventure spends 5 days in Thailand’s northernmost province, Chiang Rai, not Chiang Mai. Smiling Albino’s northern adventures venture along both the Thai-Burma and Thai-Lao borders, not the Thai-Cambodia border.
