Thailand


Best time to be there

November to March. April is often the hottest month of the year, and also the month of the celebratory 'Songkran' festivals. May to October is the rainy season, with short bursts of rainstorms refreshing the green paddy fields once more.

Thailand holidays

Thailand holidays bring you to a land of smiles, offering timeless serenity inextricably interwoven with Thai Buddhist heritage. The Thai mainland offers varied delights, from the remote island-like paradise of Krabi in the south to the former capital Chiang-Mai in the north.

Thailand holidays with Abercrombie & Kent can effortlessly combine the relaxed luxury of remote beaches with the rich vitality of the city.

The present day capital, and the starting point for many Thailand holidays, is Bangkok - a heady combination of congested noisy streets and the vitality of the canal networks of klongs with their floating markets. South from Bangkok is Phuket, a fast developing island of tropical plantations and mountain rainforest - a perfect setting for a luxury Thailand holiday. Like Phuket, the stunning island of Koh Samui is increasingly popular- but still a mercifully unspoiled retreat.

Holidays to Thailand can also offer exquisite architecture in Sukhothai, a river cruise from Chao Phraya to Ayutthaya (Thailand's ancient capital) or the dramatic rock formations in the enchanting Phang Nga Bay.

Pricing
At A&K all of our journeys are individually tailored to suit your needs and timescale. However, as a guide, a 13 day Thailand holiday will cost from 4,656 per person based on two adults sharing with flights from the UK and subject to availability.
