Discover Thailand

Why visit Thailand?
Thailand welcomes you with golden temples, emerald seas, and a relaxed rhythm that unfolds at your own pace. From lively cities to quiet islands, you can shape your trip around culture, nature, or simple downtime.
What to expect
You will find the buzz of Bangkok, the creative charm of Chiang Mai, and the beach life of Phuket and Krabi. Inland mountains, tropical islands, and river valleys give you very different landscapes within a single journey.
Plan your trip
You can combine several regions in one visit, using Bangkok as your starting point and Phuket as a coastal base. Thailand also works well as a gateway to neighbouring countries in South-east Asia, thanks to strong air links and easy regional connections.

Experience Thailand's way of life

Getting around
Bangkok is your main gateway, with domestic flights linking quickly to Phuket and other cities across Thailand. Within cities, you can rely on Skytrain, metro, taxis, ride-hailing, and local buses, while islands are served by ferries and speedboats.
Local life & culture
In Bangkok, traditional riverside communities sit alongside sleek skyscrapers and creative districts. In the south, island life is defined by the sea, boat-fishing traditions, and a slower daily rhythm that feels noticeably different from the capital.
Where to unwind
Phuket and the surrounding islands offer plenty of beachfront resorts, hilltop viewpoints, and quiet bays for sunrise or sunset walks. In and around Bangkok, you can escape to riverside parks, canal-side cafés, and nearby countryside for a change of pace.

A taste of Thailand

National dishes & specialties
Thailand is known for dishes such as pad thai, green and red curries, and fragrant tom yum soups. Bangkok gathers flavours from across the country, while Phuket highlights fresh seafood and southern-style curries with bolder spice.
Casual & modern dining hubs
In Bangkok, you can eat at humble street stalls, contemporary cafés, and design-led restaurants often within a short walk of major stations. Phuket's beach areas mix simple open-air eateries, seafood grills, and modern restaurants aimed at travellers.
Signature & scenic dining
Riverside dining in Bangkok brings views of bridges and illuminated landmarks after dark. In Phuket, hilltop and cliff-side venues let you pair a relaxed meal with wide views of the coastline and offshore islands.

Retail therapy in Thailand

Malls & lifestyle hubs
Bangkok's central districts host large malls that bring together international labels, local designers, and dining in air-conditioned comfort. In Phuket, you will find modern retail centres near the main resort areas, convenient for a break from the heat.
Markets & local crafts
Across Bangkok, various markets offer fashion, homeware, and gifts, from weekend bazaars to smaller neighbourhood spots. In Phuket, town markets and small boutiques showcase textiles, handicrafts, and island-inspired pieces to take home.
Evening retail scene
Bangkok's key shopping streets and some markets come alive after sunset, when the air cools and lights reflect off the city skyline. In Phuket, night-time walking streets pair stalls with live music and food, creating a relaxed place to browse.

Best time to visit Thailand

Cool and dry season (peak season)
From November to February, much of Thailand enjoys lower humidity and comfortable temperatures around 24–30°C (75–86°F). This is the most popular time for city sightseeing and beach holidays.
Hot season (shoulder season)
From March to May, temperatures in Bangkok and other lowland areas can climb to 35–38°C (95–100°F), with strong sun and higher humidity. Coastal breezes in Phuket often make the heat feel more manageable.
Rainy season (low season)
From June to October, showers become more frequent, usually arriving as short, intense bursts with warm conditions around 26–32°C (79–90°F). You will still see sunny spells, and the landscape turns lush and green.
