Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai

Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai

If spending all day on the beach and all night in the clubs and bars of a beach resort is not your cup of tea, and hiking in glorious mountain scenery is, then you should consider visiting the North of Thailand. The picturesque and walled city of Chiang Mai boasts almost as many temples as Bangkok and is rich in history, tradition, handicrafts and delicious cuisine. In Chiang Rai, in the northern tip of Thailand, you can make an exhilarating tour of lush jungles, ancient mountain tribes and remote villages and you can even try elephant trekking! Breathtaking scenery and a colourful heritage combine to make an unforgettable Thai holiday experience.

Pattaya

Located a mere two hours by car from Bangkok, on the Gulf of Thailand is the famous beach resort of Pattaya. Pattaya draws tourists from all over the world along with Thai holiday makers, or those wanting to escape Bangkok for a weekend. Originally a small fishing town, today it is renowned for its sweeping beaches and an extremely lively nightlife. It also has a reputation for sex and sleaze and although the authorities are working hard to clean up this image, it is still not a holiday destination for the prudish!

Phuket

The largest island in Thailand basks in the Andaman sea in the South West of the country. It has rapidly become one of the most well known tourist resorts in Thailand, with sun worshippers and water sports enthusiasts, flocking to its spectacular beaches and beautiful waters. The main town of Patong has a similar reputation to Pattaya, but the smaller resorts are crammed with luxury hotels and resorts that cater for both family holidays and romantic getaways.

KohSamui

KohSamui is a mesmerising tropical Island lazing in the beautiful waters of the Gulf of Thailand and forms part of the southern Thai province of SuratThani. All types of holiday makers are attracted to the tropical weather, magnificent scenery, delicious seafood and a fantastic range of activities, including diving and snorkeling.

Krabi

Krabi is situated in southern Thailand along the Andaman Coast in an area of outstanding natural beauty. Krabis dramatic limestone hills, stunning coastline, charming fishing villages, picture perfect islands and an array of National Parks offer something for every tourist. It is deservedly famous for white sandy beaches and crystal clear waters, that are home to an abundance of sea life and flourishing coral reefs. Divers, climbers, sun seekers, families, couples, young an old can all find something to enjoy in Krabi!
