If you truly want the holiday of a lifetime and crave an exotic wonderland full of exciting people, amazing beaches, beautiful food and fascinating culture, then you need look no further than the exotic country of Thailand. It may sound like an adage, but Thailand truly is a dream destination in every sense of the phrase.
The bustling and steamy capital, Bangkok may very well be your first port of call and it does not disappoint. It may be a hedonist's playground, but there's also something here for the culture vultures too, from fascinating ruins to beautiful temples and historic architecture. It can be overwhelming at first, but keep your wits about you and after a day or so, the excitement of the place will be sure to grab you.
When planning your holiday, a time to avoid may be September. Monsoon season occurs about then so be wary of booking holidays around this time. Apart from that, the months from March to June can be very humid and hot so please come prepared in terms of clothing. In fact, a trip to the beach may very well be in order at this time.
Thai people are very welcoming to visiting tourists. They are also famously laid-back and tolerant. The food is also excellent and a far cry from the bland Thai curries which can be bought in a jar in your local supermarket. Street food is also tasty, filling and very reasonably priced and the atmosphere and smells on a Bangkok street at night are to be savoured.
Thailand's beaches are some of the most beautiful in the world and picture postcard views are afforded from them. Water sports are available in abundance with everything from scuba diving to jet-skiing to kayaking well catered for. A special treat for lovers of marine wildlife would be the special trips to the many remote reefs and islands scattered throughout the land. Indeed, 'James Bond Island' is even here, made famous from its appearance in 'The Man with the Golden Gun'. Although I doubt you'll catch a glimpse of Bond himself!
Last but not least, Thailand's nightlife is truly legendary and not for the faint-hearted. If that's the sort of thing you are after, then believe me, it's all here waiting for you. It really is as outrageous and off-the-wall as everyone says it is - and more so.
In summary, if you like lazing on a beautiful golden sandy beach, like sunshine, like fantastic tasty food and friendly locals then you could do worse that Thailand holidays. They really do take the breath away.
