Thai Sun Escapes With Phuket

11 days

Thailand map Home of lush tropical islands, dazzling palm-fringed beaches, coral reefs teeming with colourful marine life, picturesque fishing villages, forested mountains and waterfalls, Thailand provides the perfect place to enjoy warm sunshine while combining the opportunity to experience a different culture. This naturally includes the local cuisine.

Your Thai Sun Escape starts with a short stay in the always exciting capital city, Bangkok which will give you a flavour of the country as a whole before you head off to Phuket, our resort of choice.

Bangkok, the Thai capital since 1782, is a national treasure house. Major attractions include Buddhist temples, palaces, floating markets, "Venice of the East" canal scenes, classical dancing performances, legendary night life, and numerous shops selling Thai silk, gemstones, bronze and pewter ware. No wonder Thais call this exotic city "The City of Angels."

Phuket is Thailand's largest island lying off the country's south-west coast connected to the mainland by a bridge. Imagine a combination of long white sandy beaches, an azure sea and a backdrop of forested hillsides to delight the senses. The area is surrounded by small exotic islands, some of which can be easily visited on excursions. Watersports abound and for the scuba diver or snorkeller, this is a haven waiting to be explored and, what's more, Phuket boasts the best seafood in Thailand.
