It’s Time for Thailand

Ah, Thailand! Holidays in Thailand offer a dynamic mix of old and new, unrivalled beauty, rich culture, and tranquillity. No matter whether you want to soak up the sun on an idyllic island, explore the captivating culture and history, or sample the finest regional cuisine, Thailand is the place for you.

Beach Please

Thailand is lined with some of the world’s most gorgeous beaches. The waters off Krabi are studded with dozens of islands where you’ll find pristine beaches, half-hidden coves, and some of Thailand’s best marine life. Or head to a secluded beach on the north-west coast of Koh Phangan and snorkel in waters so clear they will take your breath away. Koh Samui also provides everything you need for an exotic island getaway: sugar white sand, swaying palm trees and sun-soaked resorts.

A Deep Dive into the History & Culture

Abundant in sacred temples and ancient ruins, Thailand is the ideal place for a history and culture lover. Koh Samui’s old Buddhist temples tell the story of Thailand’s ancient history. In Bangkok, a must-see is Ayutthaya, once an ancient city whose beautiful ruins still stand. You can still view its many Buddha statues and temples. The culture here is also fascinating; head to the riverbanks of Bangkok to experience the city’s vibrant floating markets.

Take a Walk on the Wild Side

Thailand is home to more than 285 extraordinary mammal species, many of which can be found roaming the ancient forest of Khao Sok National Park. To really immerse yourself in the wild, stay at the fabulous Elephant Hills Tented Camps, Thailand’s first luxury tented jungle camps. They perfectly blend together a luxury Thai tropical jungle short stay, with an elephant park experience. The elephants you find here have been rescued from captive environments and their best interests are at the heart of the camp.

Thai Specialities

Thai food is one of the most popular cuisines in the world, thanks to its spicy chillies and fresh ingredients. From the favourite Pad Thai to fragrant red and green curries, Thai food is bursting with flavour. The most popular food in Thailand is the iconic street food. Around every corner you will come across the much-loved som tam; this classic street food dish is made from papaya mixed with shrimp paste, peanuts, tomatoes, and green beans.

Top Thailand Tips

The official language of Thailand is Thai, and the currency is the Thai Baht. The best time to go to Thailand is during their dry season which is typically between the months of November and April. If you want to avoid the crowds, then travel to Thailand between May and October, but be prepared for some showers. The time in Thailand is GMT +7.
