Thailand

Everyone knows about the stupendous beaches, the bustling cities, the extraordinary temples of Thailand. All the more reason to ask our experienced Consultants to show you a Thailand not everyone knows.

Many destinations inspire superlatives. A luxury, tailor-made holiday to Thailand demands an incredibly long and varied list of Must Do’s.

Talk to one of our Thailand experts and frequent visitors, Rob Kent – and you’ll find you simply must immerse yourself in the sea of humanity that is Bangkok. Surround yourself with fantastical temples and vivacious markets, take cultural tours, go shopping, explore the contrasting ancient and ultra-modern areas of the city, eat on the street or in world class restaurants.

Then you must visit the north of the country and take time to wander through beautiful forests, trek through jungles and call in on traditional hill tribe villages.

The next Must Do is a paradise beach. Thailand has quite a few to choose from; famous ones with palm-thatched beach bars and a sizzling nightlife. And the ones that are less well known, but more popular with solitary sun-worshippers who just want the quiet whispering of swaying palms and lapping waves.

You’ll like talking to Rob or one of our other experts; they’ll tailor-make an itinerary of Must Do’s and give you tips on bargaining in markets and finding superlative street food for just a few pence.
