Bask on beautiful beaches
Thailand is famed the world over for its paradise beaches – and seeing them with your own eyes certainly won’t leave you disappointed. If you’re looking for a taste of luxury, head south to Koh Samui or if world class diving is your thing, make your way to the island of Koh Tao. For undiscovered delights, the islands of Ko Khut and Ko Chang are ideal, whilst Koh Phangan is the life and soul of the party. If you haven’t got time to head down to the south, just a couple of hours outside of Bangkok you’ll be greeted with the beauty of Koh Samet.
Indulge in delicious food
From stylish restaurants to delicious street food, Thailand is famed for its mouthwatering cuisine. The country’s signature dishes are the spicy green curry and the sweet pad Thai – and you’ll find plenty of opportunities to indulge. If you fancy trying your hand at creating a dish, Thai cooking classes are very popular and you’ll find them everywhere you look. You’ll be a pro in no time!
Discover Thailand’s culture
Thailand is a country overflowing with cultural heritage, dating back through the centuries. Ancient Wat temples and Khmer ruins dot the country, and the Grand Palace shimmers with prestige in Bangkok. Hill tribes still live in the greenery of the golden triangle and 95% of the population identify themselves as Buddhist, meaning that spiritual wellbeing and meditation play a huge role in everyday life.
