Fantastic news! Thailand has finally returned to its normal calm and welcoming state after several months of political unrest. As of the 1st June 2010 the all-important FCO (Foreign Commonwealth Office) advice changed, confirming that the country is now calm and that travel to Thailand, including the city of Bangkok, is no longer inadvisable. Thailand is heavily reliant on the tourism industry and many local businesses depend on tourists for their livelihood so this news comes at an important time.
That means we’re good to go! Our full Thailand program, including our hugely popular Thai Experience tour, are now all running normally with departures scheduled throughout the summer. Places for summer are starting to fill up fast, so if you’ve been putting off your plans for Thailand and need a little inspiration then check out the trips below!
