Let’s discover this beautiful Southeast Asian country exploring one after another some of the most beautiful stops to make on a group trip.
Chiang Mai
Let’s start with one of the classic but undoubtedly unmissable stops: located in northern Thailand, the city of Chiang Mai is a must for anyone wanting to explore this stunning country.
The city has an international airport and is relatively easy to reach; what makes it special, however, is its blend of historical beauty, local cuisine, markets, lakes, and temples.
Chiang Mai boasts a wonderful historic center with several temples such as Wat Phra Singh and Wat Chiang Man; just outside the city, there’s a unique elephant sanctuary, and between the Warorot Market and the Night Bazaar, there’s truly an abundance of opportunities to experience Thai life up close. This can be an excellent first stop for a group trip to Thailand!
Isan
This time, rather than focusing on a single city, we’ll concentrate on a region, that of Isan, sadly underrated by international tourism.
Although not very difficult to reach, this region is rarely included in itineraries, which is a great pity. Inside it, for example, is the stunning Khao Yai National Park, one of the most beautiful in the world, so much so that it is also listed among the UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
Besides its natural beauty, there are also some beautiful Khmer temples: a perfect example is the temples in the city of Nang Rong, within the historic park of Phanom Rung. Nothing to envy to the Cambodian temples of Angkor.
The Western Part of Phuket
Now let’s talk about Phuket, the largest Thai island and one of the most touristy overall.
Among the locations in Phuket the most famous is undoubtedly Patong, a city very welcoming to tourists with hotels, beaches, restaurants, entertainment, and much more.
.
Don’t be fooled by those offering potentially dangerous sports activities: unfortunately, the area is known for lacking quality or cutting-edge equipment, which over the years has led to several accidents.
Koh Phi Phi
The islands of Koh Phi Phi, in the heart of the Andaman Sea between the aforementioned Phuket and Koh Lanta are some of the most picturesque islands in the entire country.
Maya Bay beach, for example, is internationally famous for being the setting of The Beach, a film by Danny Boyle starring a Leonardo DiCaprio who became hugely popular right after Titanic.
The Koh Phi Phi islandshave much more to offer: this group of islands boasts stunning natural beauty. Powdery white sand, crystal-clear waters, lush nature: there are plenty of sports activities to enjoy, including wakeboarding, paddleboarding, snorkeling, and water skiing.
The nightlife is also notable, enlivening the evenings in the local towns: as a popular tourist destination also catering to Western tastes, the entire Koh Phi Phi Islands area has everything needed to satisfy those seeking fun and excitement on a trip to Thailand. This is a stop that absolutely cannot be missed for anyone looking for a group trip to Thailand!
The Historic Park of Sukhothai
Located in the northern region of Thailand, about 400 km from Bangkok and 300 from Chiang Mai, the area of Sukhothai is particularly known for its large historic park, which is also a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
The reasons are clear: the name Sukhothai is the same as theancient capital of the Siam kingdom, and today it is one of the most important tourist and historical sites in all of Thailand.
Film enthusiasts will surely recognize this name, and everyone else would do well to consider including this city in their travel itinerary. The city hosts several museums: there is a railway museum dedicated to the living conditions of prisoner laborers, an American-style military cemetery for the Allied forces, a museum dedicated to World War II and the Jeath War Museum.
