An escorted tour is an excellent way to discover Thailand, particularly if you're visiting for the first time. With an organised itinerary and planned transport, accommodation and sightseeing, you can experience more of the country without having to arrange every detail yourself.
- Discover more in one holiday: Visit several destinations and experience the contrasts between Thailand's cities, countryside and coastline.
- Enjoy cultural experiences: Learn about Thai history, traditions, temples, food and everyday life.
- Travel with expert guidance: Depending on the tour, benefit from an experienced tour manager and knowledgeable local guides.
- Enjoy a planned itinerary: Many arrangements are organised in advance, helping make travelling between destinations easier.
- Meet like-minded travellers: Share the experience with others who enjoy discovering new places and cultures.
The Best Places to Visit on a Thailand Tour
Thailand has a wonderful mix of historic landmarks, vibrant cities, beautiful countryside and tropical coastlines. Depending on your chosen itinerary, you may have the opportunity to discover some of these highlights.
Bangkok – Temples, Palaces and City Life
Thailand's lively capital is a fascinating introduction to the country. Discover ornate Buddhist temples, bustling markets, traditional neighbourhoods and impressive royal landmarks. Highlights can include the Grand Palace, Wat Pho and the Temple of the Emerald Buddha, alongside opportunities to sample authentic Thai cuisine.
Chiang Mai – Northern Thailand and Tradition
Surrounded by mountains and lush countryside, Chiang Mai is known for its historic temples, traditional markets and distinctive northern Thai culture. It can be a wonderful place to learn more about local traditions, enjoy regional food and explore a different side of Thailand.
Chiang Rai – Temples and Scenic Landscapes
In northern Thailand, Chiang Rai is known for its striking temples, including the famous White Temple, and its location among beautiful rural landscapes. Some itineraries explore this region as part of a wider journey through northern Thailand.
Ayutthaya – Thailand's Ancient Capital
Explore the atmospheric ruins of a former Siamese capital, with historic temples, impressive Buddha statues and the remains of magnificent buildings. Ayutthaya offers a fascinating insight into Thailand's past and may feature on tours travelling north from Bangkok.
Kanchanaburi – History and Natural Beauty
Kanchanaburi is associated with the history of the Second World War and the Burma Railway. Visitors may learn about the area's important historical sites while enjoying its riverside setting and surrounding countryside.
Sukhothai – Historic Temples and Ruins
The historic park at Sukhothai contains the remains of an early Thai kingdom, including ancient temples, monuments and Buddha images. It is an appealing destination for travellers interested in history, architecture and Thailand's cultural heritage.
The River Kwai – Scenery and History
The River Kwai region combines important wartime history with green landscapes, rivers and rural scenery. Depending on your tour, you may be able to visit historical memorials and enjoy the quieter surroundings away from the major cities.
Thailand's Tropical Beaches and Islands
Thailand is also famous for its beautiful beaches, turquoise waters and tropical islands. Depending on your itinerary, you may be able to add a relaxing beach stay to your touring holiday, or arrange extra time in a coastal destination before returning home.
Not every escorted tour visits all these destinations. We can help you compare available itineraries and find one that includes the places and experiences that interest you most.
Tailor-Made Thailand Holidays
If you would prefer to choose your own destinations, hotels and length of stay, a tailor-made Thailand holiday could be the ideal option. We can help you explore the possibilities and build a trip around your interests, preferred travel dates and budget.
Your holiday could include time in Bangkok, a visit to northern Thailand, a stay in a beach resort or a combination of cultural experiences and relaxation. You can also consider adding guided excursions or private transfers to make travelling between destinations easier.
A tailor-made holiday offers greater flexibility than a fixed escorted itinerary, allowing you to decide how long to spend in each place and what kind of experiences matter most to you.
Multi-Centre Thailand Holidays
With so much to see and experience, Thailand is an excellent destination for a multi-centre holiday. Rather than staying in one place, you can combine two or more destinations to experience different aspects of the country.
- Bangkok and the beach: Discover the capital's temples, markets and food before relaxing at a tropical beach resort.
- Bangkok and northern Thailand: Combine the excitement of the capital with the temples, culture and scenery of Chiang Mai or Chiang Rai.
- Culture and relaxation: Explore historic sites and traditional towns before enjoying a few restful days by the sea.
- Thailand and neighbouring countries: Depending on your travel plans, consider a wider Southeast Asia itinerary combining Thailand with another destination.
We can help you explore suitable flights, accommodation and transfers to bring your multi-centre holiday together. Options and travel times depend on the destinations you choose.
