Thailand is blessed with a myriad of riches: ancient ruins, dense rainforests, buzzing cities, fascinating Buddhist culture and an internationally renowned party scene. One minute you can be amidst the neon, noise and street life of an urban jungle, the next finding enlightenment at a tranquil temple.

Known as the land of smiles, Thailand has a culture of hospitality that charms visitors. Bangkok is an exuberant, colourful city that never sleeps; a place to party, discover incredible food, shop in the markets and find unexpected moments of peace. In the south, the beaches and islands are a sun-seeker's paradise. As close to an earthly paradise as you're likely to find, they offer great opportunities for scuba diving and water sports. The jungles of the north are home to incredible wildlife. Thai cuisine is world-renowned, and whether you're eating at a high-end restaurant or a street stall it's a treat for even the most jaded tastebuds.
