Thailand Adventure

Trip code: THAD
Thai Adventure

Thailand is one of our most popular destinations. Discover this country's diverse treasures; travel through stunning rainforests and jungles, home to traditional hill tribe villages in the north; to its vibrant capital city of Bangkok and on to tropical islands of the south.



Country Information

The Kingdom of Thailand, with a population of 65 million people, is located in the heart of Southeast Asia and shares borders with Cambodia, Laos, Malaysia and Myanmar.  It is an area of outstanding natural beauty complemented by impressive architecture, including striking temples. The country is also well known for its appetising food and the people renowned for their friendly manner.

Time
Thailand is 7 hours ahead of GMT.

Thai people are very informal and at the same time very creative and care free.  So be aware that plans can change without clear reason and be prepared to be flexible.

Getting there

You will need to arrange flights to Bangkok for the start date of your programme. Upon arrival you will be met by a programme co-ordinator and transferred to a hotel in central Bangkok.

Climate

In general it is hot all year round. On average the temperature is around 90 degrees Fahrenheit. Humidity is high all the time.

Due to the monsoon climate, there is a rainy season lasting from the end of July to the end of October. March is the hottest month of the year. If you are going during the monsoon, don’t worry there is plenty of sun in between the showers.
