Taste of Thailand

Bangkok

Secrets of Central Thailand

Over a memorable few days, you’ll dive into chapters of Thailand’s long history, from its ancient civilisation in the UNESCO city of Ayutthaya to the atrocities that unfolded in Kanchanaburi, while also learning plenty about Thailand of the here and now. Feel the rhythm of the fragrant and colourful markets and meet rice farmers to hear about their daily lives. A visit to the waterfalls at Erawan National Park means you can also see one of the scenic highlights of the nation. During this adventure, you'll stay at Cross River Kwai.

Bangkok & Phuket

There’s plenty to pack into a few days in Bangkok, from a cruise down the Chao Phraya River to exploring Wat Pho and the Grand Palace. The food scene here is incredible, so a night market tour or cooking class is a must. Phuket is Thailand’s ultimate beach resort playground – an emerald island of golden sands and neon-lit night-time revelry. It’s also the gateway to the Andaman Sea, where colourful long-tail boats bob in the sunshine and towering limestone karsts rise out of the water.

Bangkok

River Kwai Highlights

Take three days to get to know Thailand's Kanchanaburi region. Your time is spent getting to know the area’s sombre history, visiting historic landmarks like the Thailand-Burma Railway Centre, War Cemetery, and the Bridge over the River Kwai to gain a deep understanding of the atrocities that happened here, culminating on a trip on the Death Railway itself.

Bangkok

Ayutthaya on 2 Wheels

The hundreds of temple ruins in Ayutthaya hint at its wealthy past when it thrived for centuries as the Siamese capital. You’ll arrive by train from Bangkok and spend the day on a cycling tour, visiting the most famous temples in the city and pausing to enjoy Ayutthaya as it is today when you stop at a local market and riverside restaurant.

Bangkok

Bangkok & Hua Hin

Some arrive daunted by its chaos, but most leave thrilled by its vibrancy, tradition and culture – it's the classic city and beach combo where you can stay among skyscrapers before relaxing on the golden sands. And of the beaches, Hua Hin is more accessible than some as it's on the north-western shores of the Gulf of Thailand, around three hours by road from Bangkok.

Bangkok

Bangkok, Chiang Mai & Koh Samui

There's three sides to this Thailand tale: two city stays and some beach bliss on a sun-kissed isle. Following a few frenetic days in Bangkok eating, temple hopping and market exploring, head north to Chiang Mai a sacred city surrounded by rolling hills. Then it's time to do tone down the adventure and just chill on Koh Samui's sandy shores.
