Thailand Holiday Essentials

Thailand’s answer to Angkor Wat, Sukhothai is a stunning temple complex that was only rediscovered in the jungle a few decades ago

Famous as the home of World War II icons Bridge Over The River Kwai and Hellfire Pass, Kanchanaburi’s beautiful riverside resorts are a popular weekend retreat for Bangkokians

Only three hours from Bangkok, Koh Samet is a beautiful island in the Gulf of Thailand famous for its relaxing beaches and popular with Bangkokians for weekend escapes
- Ayutthaya
Thailand’s original capital that was destroyed by the Burmese, Ayutthaya is today home to bewitching ancient temple ruins
- Pattaya
Often dubbed Sin City, Pattaya also has a quieter side with upmarket beach resorts away from the crowds
- Hua Hin
Originally a tiny fishing village, the quaint beach town of Hua Hin has expanded rapidly to become a great weekend escape from Bangkok
- Koh Samui
One of Thailand’s most popular islands, Samui is heavily developed and crowded, although there are plenty of quiet spots still to be found
- Koh Phangan
Home of the infamous Full Moon Party on the island’s southern beaches, much of northern Koh Phangan is tranquil beaches and tropical forest that’s largely undiscovered by the party crowd
- Koh Tao
Once a haven only for scuba divers, the tiny island of Koh Tao has become a hideaway for those in the know who want to get away from the high-rises and crowds of Koh Samui. Once mainly for backpackers, now Koh Tao has several stunning villas and boutique hotels
- Krabi
Home to iconic Koh Phi Phi island and neighbouring Koh Lanta, Krabi province also has the stunning Railay Beach and the popular beach town of Ao Nang and Thai foodie heaven of Krabi Town itself
- Phuket
Thailand’s largest and most famous island, Phuket is frankly crowded, over-developed and expensive, but there’s still several beaches to enjoy some peace and quiet – plus the amazing and quite scary Phuket Vegetarian Festival
- Trang
Not as popular as neighbouring Krabi, Trang province has some lovely, quiet islands like Koh Mook and Koh Kradan, several hidden beaches on the mainland and a fun city to explore
- Ubon Ratchathani
Gateway to Issan, Thailand’s agricultural heartland, the Angkor-era temples of Phanom Rung and Phimai and the Temple Of A Million Beer Bottles, plus access into Laos to visit Pakse and the south
