Perfect Pad Thai

View
Essential Thailand

Street stall-hopping is the tastiest (and cheapest) way to eat. Start with pad thai, then nutella pancakes and finish at the cocktail cart for a pina colada.

Elephant riding

Classic Thailand

I thought I'd done it all, then I rode an elephant through the jungle. These beasts aren't just big, they're enormous, and the view from on top is incredible.

Snorkelling

Thailand Beaches

Ko Tao's underwater worlds burst with colour. Snorkel or scuba along reefs teeming with every kind fish or get the adrenaline pumping at Shark Island.

Hilltribe trek

Tribal Thailand

Get off the beaten track with a trek through Thailand's remote northern hills. Stay overnight in simple huts with local families and experience hilltribe life.

Temple-hopping

View
Best of Thailand

There are 300 temples crammed into Chiang Mai, and they're all worth visiting. My favourite is Doi Suthep. Climb the dragon staircase for stunning views over the town.

Khao Sok

View
Thailand Sunsets

Sleep surrounded by hectares of thick jungle, waterfalls, limestone cliffs and even an island-studded lake. In the morning, wake up to the sound of exotic birdcalls.

Floating Markets

Thailand Discovery

Swap Bangkok's busy streets for its maze of canals. Float along the waterways and join locals as they bargain for fresh produce, flowers and clothes.

Erawan Waterfalls
