Discover the magical land of Thailand

There are very few places that look like a scene straight out of a Hollywood movie or a fantasy novel. One such magical getaway that conjures up a dream-like destination in front of your eyes is the luscious landscape of Thailand.

Known as the ‘Land of Smiles’, the mesmerizing country lures travelers with its pristine beaches, magnificent palaces and historical sites. The white powdery sand, shade of palm trees, hammocks under the sun, delectable seafood, tropical drinks and warm hospitality all add to create a wonderland for tourists. No doubt, it is thronged by foreign travelers in huge numbers every year.  

Topping the bucket list of every discerning tourist, this region gives wings to your imagination. Thus, we bring you an array of exciting holiday packages for Thailand that leave you gratified to the core. 

Come fall in love with Pattaya

You are bound to fall in love with Pattaya, as every element of this enchanting location creates everlasting happiness. The sun rises and sets, but the revelry never ceases to exist. Its unspoiled  beaches are worth admiring and the turquoise water is ideal for swimming. If you are enthusiastic about water sports, then Jomtien Beach is the place to be. However, if you seek solitude, head to Nakula or Wong Amat Beach. Dotted with a chain of swanky hotels, ritzy shopping malls, teeming market places, sumptuous restaurants and leisure activities, the 4-km crescent-shaped Pattaya Beach is a tropical paradise.  

You have not enjoyed Pattaya completely unless you explore its coral reefs. Grab our Romantic Getaway or Bangkok and Pattaya 4 Nights, which will take you on a memorable tour of the Coral Islands or Koh Larn. You can also marvel at the world’s biggest gem gallery during the city tour of Pattaya.

Diversity is Bangkok’s forte

The only problem with this bustling, vibrant and vivacious city is that it is hard to describe it in words. But, if you wish to know the true meaning of diversity, you must come here. Gleaming temples such as Grand Palace and Wat Arun, fascinating skyscrapers, delectable and hygienic street food, and romantic rooftop restaurants are just a few highlights of the capital. An easy and comfortable ride, the tuk-tuks pierce through the crowd in the night markets and Chinatown to present you with souvenirs and items that cannot be missed. There are many luxury malls and  boats laden with fresh fruits and vegetables in the floating markets.

Phuket is more than an island

Phuket is the largest island in Thailand. Though, it is just 48-km long and 21-km wide, the number of attractions it houses are astounding. The limestone karsts at the Phang Nga Bay can captivate any onlooker. You can take time to spend a few moments at the James Bond Island or Koh Panyee, two of the most notable locations in this bay.

You will be taken to the idyllic Phi-Phi Islands through our Phuket Fiesta with Bangkok  deals. You can laze on the beaches, marvel at the woods and take pleasure in exhilarating sports like snorkelling and scuba diving. 

Krabi is splendid

Krabi is competing with other popular destinations such as Phuket and Pattaya in grabbing the top spot among the attractions of Thailand. Thanks to its own airport, many international tourists land here every year to enjoy not just the rustic environment and serenity, but also the beach bungalows and five-star mega-resorts. Located on the south of Ao Nang Beach, you can reach here and explore the caves and lagoons hidden inside the cliffs, but only through a boat.

Opt for a Krabi city tour to gain more information on the island or the Island Hopping tour that takes you to four different islands - Ko Poda, Ko Gai (Chicken Island), Parang Beach and Ko Tub, with Dpauls Exotic Thailand 6 Nights package.

There’s a lot more to do in Thailand than you can imagine. This is the reason we have crafted customized holiday packages for the beautiful and welcoming country.
