Why travellers choose Thailand
The value is hard to beat. Four-star beachfront hotels, excellent food and cheap internal flights mean a Thailand trip delivers noticeably more than the same budget spent almost anywhere else.
It offers three quite different holidays in one country: Bangkok's markets, temples and nightlife; the Andaman coast's limestone islands around Phuket and Krabi; and the cooler, quieter north around Chiang Mai.
The tourism infrastructure is mature. Transfers, island day trips, elephant sanctuaries and dive schools all operate to a reliable standard, which makes the trip easy for families and first-time travellers.
What not to miss in Thailand
- Grand Palace and Wat Pho — Bangkok's essential half-day — the Emerald Buddha and the reclining Buddha. Dress code is enforced strictly.
- Phi Phi Islands — Maya Bay, Pileh Lagoon and snorkelling stops, reached by speedboat from Phuket or Krabi.
- James Bond Island and Phang Nga Bay — Sea canoeing among limestone karsts — calmer and less crowded than the Phi Phi run.
- Chiang Mai — Doi Suthep temple, ethical elephant sanctuaries and the Sunday walking market.
- Floating and railway markets — Damnoen Saduak and Maeklong, a half-day out of Bangkok and genuinely photogenic.
- Coral Island, Pattaya — An easy beach day within reach of Bangkok if you are short on time for the south.
When to travel
November to February is the cool dry season and the best all-round window. March to May is hot, with April bringing Songkran — chaotic, wet and enormously good fun if you know what you are signing up for. June to October is the monsoon: rain arrives in short intense bursts, prices fall sharply and the islands are quiet. The Andaman coast and the Gulf coast have offset rainy seasons, so there is almost always a good beach option.
Entry and paperwork
Thailand's entry rules for Indian passport holders have shifted repeatedly in recent years between visa-free entry, visa-on-arrival and e-visa. We confirm the current position for your passport at the time of booking rather than relying on published guidance that may be out of date. Six months' passport validity and proof of onward travel are consistently required.
