Thailand holidays

The Land of Smiles as it is known across the globe is one of the best tourist destinations on the planet. It has been marketed as 'Amazing Thailand', and amazing is one of many words you could use to describe the exhilarating experience that awaits any visitor to Thailand. Tourism plays a massive role in the Thai economy and for this reason you can expect the very best facilities and services wherever you go. There are many great places to travel to in Thailand, and each place presents its own unique charm in a way that is very different to the majority of holiday destinations in the west.

Bangkok is the first port of call for many visitors to Thailand. It has developed at a tremendous pace over recent years and it now rivals any Western city when it comes to eating out, hotels and entertainment. With the rapid modernisation of the Thai capital prices have crept up, although if you hunt around there are still plenty of bargains to be found in this immense city. The popular tourist town of Pattaya is a short two hour journey by taxi or bus from Bangkok.

The South of Thailand is also a tremendously popular region among tourists. Phuket, in particular, attracts a huge amount of visitors. The long, white beaches that adorn the island's coastline and smaller idyllic islands that dot the ocean, such as the James Bond Island, provide the perfect setting to enjoy an unforgettable holiday.
