It's a challenge to fit everything you want to do in Thailand into your holiday. There are so many options for a holiday in this stunning Asian country that you'll never have enough time to get them all done To help you out, I've put together this short list of suggestions. You'll certainly be able to fit a couple of these five activities in on a standard two week holiday.
1. Explore the countryside
Even if you're spending your holiday in Bangkok, it's worth spending some time in the countryside too. You'll be surprised how close the country is to the city, making it easy to spend a day away from the hustle and bustle of Bangkok. You can explore along the canals, called "klong" in Thai, and gaze at the beautiful Thai landscape. There are many orchids in the wild for avid photographers and you can even visit an agricultural cooperative to learn more about traditional Thai farming.
2. Learn traditional Thai massage
If you're heading to Thailand on a romantic holiday or even for your honeymoon, learning traditional Thai massage could be the perfect way to amp up your romantic time together. You can practice your new skills on each other even after the lesson is over. Thai massage is usually done with the participants fully clothed and no oil is involved. The masseuse typically uses all part of his or her body knuckles, elbows, knees, and even feet to massage you in a variety of different almost yoga-like positions. It's different but will still provide you the same relaxed, happy feeling you'd get after an ordinary massage.
3. Ride an elephant
Surely riding an elephant will be a new experience for you, and it's one that you can't have many other places If you love animals, consider heading to Anantara for a one to three day mahout training camp. You'll learn from the experts on how to drive, feed, and bathe the elephants. You might even be surprised to find yourself developing a bond with your individual elephant as you get acquainted with his or her personality. You'll find yourself sorry to leave your new friend and you'll have a great story and pictures to display back home.
4. Visit a winery
It may surprise you to learn that Thailand produces quality wine, but you can certainly use it to your advantage on a holiday there. You can visit one of Thailand's famous wineries, like the GranMonte, and sample some of their best wine. This is a perfect romantic experience for couples to enjoy together. The GranMonte even has its own quality restaurant for a meal out after you've finished touring the vineyard.
5. Take a cruise down the Chao Praya River
Looking for some relaxation You might want to seek out a short cruise. The cruise can provide you with the ultimate in luxury while you're exploring nearby Thai culture. For example, on your sail down the Chao Praya River you'll visit traditional temples and feed fish to make merit at them. You'll also visit a variety of museums and you might even find yourself visiting a palace or having a go at traditional Thai handicrafts.
