About Thailand
If you take one lasting memory from Thailand, it has to be the hospitality of its people. Their charm can be
seen everywhere - from the north's breathtaking hill villages and the pulsating metropolis of Bangkok, to the
powder-white shores of the south's remote beaches and world-class holiday and hotel resorts in Phuket.
Coloured by magnificent temples and flavoured by a world-renowned cuisine, Thailand really does have it all.
Our Travellers Guide
Beaches
Famous for inspiring Alex Garland’s novel,‘The Beach’, it won’t take you long to find your own idyllic retreat, with untouched sandy coves and endless beaches dotted around the coastlines and the south’s exotic islands out at sea.
Sports
Thailand's national marine parks, countless islands and coral reefs offer some of the best scuba diving and snorkelling in the gulf, whilst the south's mangroves are great for kayaking. For more extreme sports, striking limestone cliffs will challenge the most experienced rock climber, while wilderness trekking, combined with overnight stays in tribal villages, is the north's biggest draw. An absolute must-see is Thai boxing (Muay-Thai) the Lumpini Stadium Bangkok is the most famous boxing arena in the world.
Local tastes
Just as Thailand's landscapes change from north to south, so does its cuisine. In the north try Khao Sawy, a light curried noodle dish and Som tam, a spicy papaya salad. Down in southern Thailand, chilli is the order of the day. Novices should start with a Kaeng Leuang, a mild yellow curry made with the region's tasty green squash.
Evening flavour
When it comes to evening flavour, Thailand stands unrivalled. Bangkok, once only known for the seedy sights of Pat Pong, it’s now part of the world’s premier nightlife map. Down south, you’ll find a chilled vibe, with plenty of variety, from tranquil beach bars to the tourist bar strips of Phuket, Pattaya and Koh Samui.
Best buys
Beyond the fake designer tackle and replica antiques, you’ll find amazing arts and crafts and unique antiques. With intricate theatrical masks and puppets, delicately crafted bamboo goods, bewitching buddha heads and beautiful raw silk reclining cushions, you’ll need to pack less just to bring it all home.
Live the Experience
For the real 'Thailand Experience', visit Bangkok, where palaces back holy temples and street sellers barter beneath the shade of cloud-piercing skyscrapers. Deep in the north's mountains is a different world, where jungle villages lay hidden, and elephants and bamboo rafts are the only rush hour you'll see. Down south, you'll find an altogether different scene, where talc-white shores and multi-coloured marine life are by far its biggest draw.
