In Thailand—once called Siam—independence, hospitality, and the traditional philosophy that "life is pleasure" weave a spell over every visitor. It's one of our top destinations—and with small groups, personal encounters, and unique cultural discoveries, our Discover Thailand is an Asian adventure par excellence.
Exploring Thailand from the cosmopolitan south to the remote northern hill tribes, you'll watch Buddhist monks receive alms at a dawn ceremony ... mount an elephant for an unforgettable ride through the jungle ... maybe even buy some fresh lemongrass in Bangkok's floating market. And get a special insider's perspective into Thai culture as you take part in a cooking class, dine in a local home, and ride on a traditional bamboo raft. Discover what makes Thailand so very Thai—and what captivates so many visitors.
