Where should you travel in Thailand?

Bangkok – A city that is hard to put your thumb on, you can do everything from visiting ancient architecture to the largest open-air market in the world.

Phuket – One of the best places in Thailand to visit for families. It’s known as the gateway to the southern beaches of Thailand.

Ko Samui – The second largest island of Thailand and one that you can directly fly into, is the perfect place to relax thanks to its luxury hotels and white sandy beaches.

Khao Yai National Park – If you are looking for the best access to Thailand’s wildlife, look no further than Kao Yai National Park—just a 2-hour drive from Bangkok.

Chiang Mai – Chiang Mai, the capital of the Northern Territory, is the perfect escape for any foodie.

When should you visit Thailand?

Unsure of the best time of year to visit Thailand? The dry season is your best bet if you are hoping for ideal Thai weather. The dry season starts in November and lasts until the spring. Not only is it the mildest, weather-wise, but the winter also sees some of Thailand’s most significant cultural festivals, like Loy Krathong.

Thailand Travel Tips

• Cash is the most popular payment method in Thailand, but ATM fees are high, so withdraw as much as possible in one transaction
• Uber is not available in Thailand, but they do offer a similar ride-sharing app—GrabTaxi
• Respect Thailand’s etiquette; you should never point your feet toward someone or touch their head
• Follow table manners; the fork never goes into the mouth and is only used to push food onto the spoon
