Despite the recent global decline in international tourism, the number of visitors who travel to Thailand continues to increase; with Thailand tourism chiefs reporting visitor arrivals topping the thirteen million mark for 2005.

There are many reasons why a Thailand holiday appeals over other destinations, not least of which is the friendly, peace-loving nature of the Thai people. However, a significant part of the Thailand's tourism success lies in the convenience and diversity of Thailand tour opportunities. The country offers a wealth of exotic and culturally distinctive destinations spread throughout its 76 provinces, and those who travel to Thailand tour with the knowledge that - from the mountainous north to the sultry south - every experience on a Thailand holiday will be unique and fulfilling.

As the region's chief aviation hub, and served by over 80 international airlines, travel to Thailand is only rivalled by the ease and frequency of air travel around the country with most of the principle Thailand tourism destinations only an hour flight from Bangkok. Of course, no Thailand holiday would be complete without a visit to the country's splendid capital. Famed for its many shopping opportunities, fantastic cultural landmarks and vibrant nightlife, Bangkok is the jewel in the crown of any Thailand tour.
