Thailand has long been one of the most
popular destinations in the Far East for
European travellers - thanks partly to it
probably the best value for money.

The exotic, colourful culture and perfect
beaches, are only part of it. Breathtaking
& bewildering historic monuments abound,
and inland - especially to the north - the
landscape is captivating and picturesque.

The bustling capital, Bangkok, is a city that
never sleeps, and seems determined to get
- and give - the ultimate excitement out of
every moment. Whether its 24-hour street
markets, ultra modern shopping centres,
historic temples, or cutting edge nightlife,
you’ll find it in Bangkok.

The people, too, are both charming and
endearing, and you’ll leave feeling you’ve
been a welcome guest, and not just a
paying tourist.

There are plenty of excellent hotels, fine
restaurants, and modern sports and leisure
facilities. For most, though, a lazy day on
one of the many splendid beaches, and a
dip in the warm sea, is Thailand’s real gem.
