Thailand package holidays are a great choice for everybody and anybody, you can spend your time lying on the sandy beaches on the Phi Phi Islands. After a day of relaxing, head to Haad Rin, which is home to the Full Moon Party; it happens either on the night of, the night before, or the night after every full moon. It carries on until the sun rises the next day and is mostly attended by tourists. It originated from locals giving thanks to about 20-30 travellers but as the years have passed, the party has gained fame and now draws in 5,000-30,000 every full moon. Will you be one of them?
If you still have enough energy on the next day of your cheap Thailand package holiday, then take a trip to the Grand Palace in Bangkok and witness some of the most spectacular Buddhist architecture in the world. You can also spend the day in Doi Inthanon National Park nicknamed “the roof of Thailand” and gaze at the stunning Himalayan Mountains and explore its beautiful waterfalls. It’s important to note though that due to its high altitude, the park has high humidity and cold weather all year around with temperatures averaging daily at around 10-12°C, so make sure you take some warm clothes before setting off!
If you’d like to spend the majority of your holiday exploring the waters surrounding the country, then a Thailand package deal is definitely a great choice! Discover the floating markets in Bangkok, where traders made deals from boats and will be selling anything from fish to fresh food! If that doesn’t float your boat, then hire your own and kayak around the 5,000 mile stretch of shoreline that surrounds Thailand. There are also multiple snorkelling sites on beaches that are easily accessible so you can spend some time admiring Thailand’s aquatic life.
If you prefer to delve deeper into the culture of the country on your package holiday to Thailand, then visit the Hill Tribe villages in the North of Thailand. There are many tour operators that have great relationships with villages and will happily show you around, you can interact with locals but please note if you want to give children sweets or goodies, it’s best to come armed with fruit for the village, as this is more costly for them than sweets. If you want to explore true Thailand, then backpacking in Kanchanaburi province would be a fantastic choice, it has a dark past that is paid homage to through great memorials and museums. If you want to see some history firsthand then carry on along this trail to the bridge over the River Kwai, which is a haunting relic from WWII constructed by prisoners of war.
If you prefer to shop, then you can until you drop in the bustling markets of Bangkok, which sell a wide variety of items, such as local handicrafts, wooden carvings, silverware, silks, pottery and furniture. Make sure you visit the Chatuchak Weekend Market and Sampeng Market for all of your shopping needs and incredible street food!
