Thailand prides itself on world-class cuisine set in crystal-clear waters, exotic beaches and historic sites. Immerse yourself in the rich culture of ancient ruins and ornate temples or dance to the rhythms on the island of Koh Pha Ngan. Hike the evergreen trails of beautiful national parks teeming with wildlife or simply lounge in a sun-drenched hammock with a chilled mojito — the possibilities are endless. Take a last-minute holiday to Thailand…
For pleasant temperatures and very little rainfall, the period from December to April is the best time to visit Thailand. During this period, the climate is perfect for a variety of water sports; scuba diving and snorkelling are particularly spectacular, as the waters are crystal clear and temperatures reach 34°C.
Bargain seekers can look forward to the months of November, April, May and October. Although there is a little more rainfall in October, this in-between-season month is an excellent time to visit the country. To find the best deals possible, make sure you are flexible about departure dates and flights, and travel outside the summer school holidays or mid-term break.
