Thailand - Optional Activity Package - USA Participant

ISV’s special price for the 2008 Thailand OAP is $260 USD.

The purpose of the Optional Activity Package (OAP) is to provide you with even more activities to enrich your experience in Thailand. We are able to receive excellent prices for these activities, much less expensive than what you could receive if you booked on your own. In addition, the booking will be taken care of for you by your ISV staff so all you have to do is show up and be ready for some adventure! Each year, more than 90% of all ISV participants enjoy the benefits of the Optional Activity Package. Please note that this OAP is offered in addition to the 5 included ISV Activities.
