Thailand
Phuket, Krabi, Pattaya and Bangkok - islands, shows and golden temples.
InternationalWhy travellers love it
Thailand strings together four great playgrounds - Phuket, Krabi, Pattaya and Bangkok - each with its own flavour of tropical magic. Speedboats skim out to the turquoise bays of Phi Phi Island and through the dramatic karsts of Phang Nga Bay to James Bond Island, while Krabi's classic Four Islands tour unfolds at the slower pace of a traditional longtail boat.
Evenings sparkle as brightly as the days: the spectacular Fantasea Show in Phuket, the glittering Alcazar Show in Pattaya and a dinner cruise on Bangkok's Chao Phraya River. In between, Coral Island serves up speedboat rides, parasailing and glass-bottom boat views, and the landscaped gardens of Nong Nooch Village offer a gentler interlude.
Bangkok closes the journey with animal encounters at Safari World & Marine Park and quiet moments before the Golden Buddha and Reclining Buddha - the serene counterpoint to Thailand's non-stop fun.
