Bangkok is called the Venice of the East thanks to its network of canals and history as a trading hub, but in reality it is like no other city on Earth. Get lost in the suburb-sized Chatuchak market, visit the stunning gold-trimmed Royal Palace, and see a muay thai match at Lumphini Stadium.
But Bangkok is just the gateway to everything this country has to offer. In the north among the mountains and elephant jungles you will find the burgeoning technology hub of Chiang Mai a stone's throw from the fortified Old City.
In the south you will find the unique limestone formations of Khao Sok National Park and the city of Phuket, with its own dining and entertainment experiences while acting as a hub for visiting Thailand's beautiful tropical islands. Koh Phi Phi has some of the best scuba diving and snorkelling in the world, and if you're looking to learn there is a plethora of excellent dive courses run by professional from all over the world. On the other side of the peninsula you will find Koh Samui, the centre of a small archipelago in the Gulf of Thailand with stunning resorts and ferries running to more secluded islands.
