Travel to Thailand

Thailand is a captivating destination filled with ancient history, stunning temples, and tropical landscapes. Here’s a quick guide to help you make the most of your trip:

Travel Tips

  • Dress Modestly: When visiting temples, wear clothing that covers your shoulders and knees out of respect for local customs.
  • Safety First: Keep an eye on your belongings, especially in crowded areas. Avoid walking alone at night in unfamiliar places.
  • Try Local Cuisine: Don’t miss sampling dishes like Pad Thai, Tom Yum, Green Curry, and Mango Sticky Rice. Visit local markets and street food stalls for an authentic experience.
  • Getting Around: Tuk-tuks and motorbikes are popular for short trips. For longer journeys, consider hiring a car with a driver or taking a bus.
  • Visa Requirements: To enter Thailand, most nationalities can obtain a tourist visa upon arrival or apply for an e-visa online. The requirements vary depending on nationality, so check the latest details before you travel.
  • E-Arrival Card: If you're flying into Thailand, complete an e-Arrival Card (ED-Card) online within seven days of your arrival.
  • Health Precautions: Stay up to date on vaccinations, including those for hepatitis A, hepatitis B, and typhoid fever. Avoid swimming in freshwater lakes or rivers due to the risk of waterborne diseases.
  • Beat the Crowds: To avoid large crowds at popular sites like the Grand Palace and Wat Pho, plan your visit early in the morning. For a quieter experience, take a midday break and explore less crowded spots during peak hours.
  • Sunrise at Wat Pho: Many visitors recommend starting your first day with a sunrise tour of Wat Pho. The ticket lines are usually shorter early in the morning, and the sight of the sun rising behind the temple is unforgettable.
