Trip Preparation

Do I need a visa?
‍
Many nationalities can enjoy visa-free entry to Thailand for up to 30 days. Check your specific passport requirements as rules change frequently. We recommend verifying the latest visa information with your local Thai embassy or consulate.

‍Remember to check your specific passport requirements as rules change frequently.
‍
‍
What about health precautions?
We suggest scheduling a quick chat with your doctor or visiting a travel clinic about a month before your trip. Thailand is generally low risk, but it's wise to ensure your routine vaccinations are up-to-date. Your doctor can provide personalized advice based on your health history and the regions you'll visit.
‍
Is travel insurance necessary?
Absolutely! Not only is insurance smart, but we require all travelers to show proof of coverage at the start of the tour. Make sure your policy covers Thailand and is valid for your entire trip duration. Getting this sorted early means one less thing to worry about.
‍
‍What should I pack?
Bangkok's climate is consistently warm and humid year-round. Pack light, breathable clothing and comfortable walking shoes for temple visits. A small day bag is essential for daily excursions. Modest attire (covered shoulders and knees) is required for temple visits. Limit your luggage to 20kgβ€”you'll appreciate traveling lighter!
‍
‍Hotels provide towels, but a quick-dry microfiber towel is handy for beaches and swimming.

‍
How should I handle money?
We recommend bringing around $500-1000 for a 4-days trip to cover meals, shopping, and activities not included in the tour. Having a mix of payment options works best:
- Get some Thai baht at the airport upon arrival
- Bring a travel/currency card as your primary option
- Keep your regular bank card as backup
- ATMs are readily available throughout Bangkok.

‍How will I connect with my group?
About two weeks before departure, you'll receive a link to join a private WhatsApp group with your fellow travelers and guide. It's the perfect way to break the ice before meeting in person and coordinate any last-minute details.

Your Arrival in Thailand

When should I arrive on Day 1?
We recommend arriving in Bangkok during the morning or early afternoon of Day 1. This gives you time to check in, relax, and join the evening activities at Benchakitti Park and Terminal 21.
‍
Will I get an airport pickup?
Absolutely! Our friendly tour guide will be waiting for you at the arrival gate with a sign bearing your name. We'll handle your transfer directly to the hotel, so you can start experiencing Thailand right away.
‍
What's the plan for Day 1?
‍
Day 1 is packed with exciting experiences:
- Airport pickup with a traditional Thai welcome
- Hotel check-in and brief orientation
- Evening visit to Benchakitti Park with its elevated forest walkways
- Dinner at the uniquely themed Terminal 21 mall

Optional exploration of the vibrant Asok areaThe day is well-balanced with guided activities and time to soak in the atmosphere of Bangkok.

Absolutely! Your tour operator will assist with airport transfers on the final day. Your Thailand tour specialist can help arrange transportation to the airport or advise on extending your stay in Bangkok or other destinations.
‍
‍When should I book my return flight?
We recommend booking afternoon or evening flights on the final day. Your morning will include a visit to Wat Yan Nawa (Boat Temple) en route to the airport. The drive from central Bangkok to Suvarnabhumi Airport takes about 45-60 minutes depending on traffic.
‍
‍Can I extend my stay?
Yes! Many guests choose to extend their Thailand experience. While extension packages aren't included in this itinerary, we're happy to recommend additional destinations like Chiang Mai, Phuket, or Koh Samui, or help arrange extra nights at your Bangkok hotel.
