Thailand
Limestone cliffs, white powdery beaches,
tranquil broad bays and tropical inland
forests combined with world class hotels
and sophisticated restaurants give
Thailand the justly deserved sobriquet
of the Pearl of the Andaman. Rejuvenate
in a seaside bungalow, spending day
after sunny day on the beach in nearperfect
tranquillity. Shop for apparel
and artefacts at malls and quaint
flea markets. And discover a serene
underwater paradise.
City Information
Bangkok
Locally known as Krung Thep
or the City of Angels, this truly is a vibrant
city, with its heavenly flavours, sights and
experiences that seduce all who visit. Bangkok
balances its exuberant modern development
with a reverent celebration of traditional Thai
culture - most evident in the glorious wats
and the extraordinary food. Bangkok has long
been a hub for travellers, offering a winning
combination of reasonable prices and excellent
tourist amenities.
Pattaya
Over time, Pattaya has grown into
Thailand’s most developed resort town. It has
Thailand’s best concentration of water sports,
dive schools and golf courses and there is a
buzzing nightlife as well as quality family
pursuits to be enjoyed here. The resorts tend to
be self-contained islands of pampered luxury.
Phuket
One of Thailand’s best known
holiday destinations, Phuket’s greatest
attractions are its beaches, fabulous swathes of
golden sand which can compete with the best
around the world. There are some sensational
coral reefs, home to tropical fish of various
kinds, which provide excellent snorkeling and
diving opportunities. Phuket Town has some
fascinating temples and Chinese colonial
buildings worth exploring.
Krabi
One of Thailand’s most attractive
destinations, Krabi Province in southern
Thailand is an ideal getaway teeming with
clean white beaches, fascinating coral reefs,
large and small islands and verdant forests
with caves and waterfalls.
Koh Samui
The beaches of Koh Samui
are amongst the most pristine you will ever
see and the island has managed to retain its
rural charm. Two popular activities here are
snorkeling and diving in the coral reefs off the
coast of Samui itself. Much of the interior of
the island is covered in rainforest, interspersed
with rubber plantations and a number of
waterfalls, which provide a superb contrast to
the coastal areas and are worthy of exploration.
In contrast to its unspoiled natural beauty, the
island’s nightlife is well developed to cater to
visitors’ tastes.
Four Island Snorkeling by Speed Boat in Krabi
Tab Island is an exotic tropical island, ideal
for easy snorkeling and exploring on foot.
When the tide is low, you can walk along the
sandy causeway that joins the neighbouring
island. Poda Island is a small island - no more
than a kilometre in diameter - with a coral
reef about 20 metres from the beach.
Visit Chicken Island for more snorkeling
and take home souvenir photos of the local
landmark, a limestone rock in the shape
of a chicken’s head and neck. Hadd Tham
Phra Nang Beach peninsula is said to have a
decorative spirit house and more swimming
off its famous beach.
Phi Phi Island
The island is located just 48 kilometres to
the east of Phuket, off the western coastline
of southern Thailand in the Andaman Sea. It
is renowned across the world for its natural
scenic beauty, with silver beaches fringed
with palm trees, towering limestone cliffs and
hills full of lush greenery. Offshore, a bank of
coral reefs provide a glimpse of marine life
whilst spots such as the historic Viking Cave
add a fascinating dimension to exploration.
You can swim and snorkel in crystal clear
water, full of coral reefs and marine life.
Phang Nga Bay, James Bond Island & Koh Pannyi
Board the boat from the mainland located
across Phuket Island to the unique, massive
vertical limestone islands in the famous
Phang Nga Bay. James Bond Island and
Koh Pannyi are two of the more famous
spots in this bay. By far the best means of
enjoying the spectacular scenery, with only
brief encounters with the tourist crowds
is to take one of the boat trips from the
northern end of Phuket. A leisurely day trip
cruising through the dramatic limestone
islands, occasionally stopping to enjoy quiet
beaches, is far more rewarding than the
standard bus-boat tour.
Ang Thong National Marine Park
The park comprises about 40 islands
northwest of Koh Samui which cover an area
of 250 square kilometres in total. Major
park islands include Mea Koh which has a
beautiful beach and an emerald saltwater
lake, Sam Sao with an exciting coral reef and
huge rock arch, Thale Nai, Wua Talap and
Phai-Luak.
Siam Niramit Show
It’s an evening of traditional Thai music,
graceful dancing, special effects that
will take your breath away, gorgeous
costumes; and through it all, an exploration
of Thailand’s rich and varied culture and
history. Siam Niramit is set on a 10-acre site
and, in addition to the theatre, comprises a
quaint Thai village set on a canal, bringing
to life the traditional lifestyles, arts and
crafts of the four regions of Thailand.
