Once as a Jeep Hopper, Pattani (3D2N)
About the trip
History & Culture
WWII jeeps are common vehicles for many people in the village. These jeeps were left behind by the US military after the war. When they left, the Thai army took them into their possession and opened for auction. Nowadays, almost everywhere in the community you will see villagers driving these jeeps around doing daily like going to market or going to their gardens. We invite you to take part in ‘Once as a Jeep Hopper’ to hop onto one of these jeeps and explore the community.
