Welcome to the capital of the land of smiles
Leave the backpack at home, because Bangkok is no longer the domain of gap-year students. Thanks to affordable packages and some serious upgrades in the hotel market, it’s now a booming destination for families and couples too. A city of spicy street food, skyscrapers, ancient temples, thronging traffic and hidden markets, Bangkok blends the old and the new, traditional and modern, East and West. It’s a place where the next surprise is just around the corner, and you never know where you’ll end up.

The best time to visit Bangkok is November to February - it’s the cool, dry season, perfect for exploring temples, shopping, and dining alfresco.
UK travellers don’t need a visa for stays of up to 30 days in Thailand. Just ensure your passport is valid for at least 6 months from your arrival!
Bangkok uses the Thai Baht (THB). You’ll find plenty of ATMs and exchange services to keep you covered for shopping, street food, and sightseeing!
The flight from the UK to Bangkok takes about 11 hours, so pack a good book and get ready for an adventure!
For couples, Sathorn and Thon Buri offer a romantic vibe with luxury hotels, rooftop bars, and riverside views. Perfect for a blend of relaxation and excitement!
If you're after peace and quiet, avoid the Khao San Road area. It’s known for being super lively and bustling, which might be a bit much for a relaxing stay.
