Why go on a honeymoon to Thailand?

Thailand is a popular destination for honeymoons – and for good reason.

With its paradisiacal beaches, unique culture, and world-famous cuisine, a tour to Thailand offers unforgettable and romantic experiences. The country’s diversity and friendly locals also create a warm and ideal atmosphere for your honeymoon.

Where should you go?

Thailand boasts countless locations perfect for a honeymoon.

However, some places may be more ideal than others – depending on what you envision your honeymoon to include.

Dreaming of intimacy and relaxation? Seeking adventure? Or do you feel most fulfilled when you truly immerse yourself in a country’s culture?

For the romantics

Is there anything more romantic than a paradise beach with azure seas, swaying palms, and soft sands?

Thailand offers a multitude of picturesque beaches on its many islands, allowing you to prioritise intimacy and relaxation on your honeymoon.

Visit Thailand’s largest islands, Phuket and Koh Samui, if you want to combine some of the country’s best beaches with charming towns. Here, you can explore the quaint streets of Phuket Old Town or Fisherman’s Village on Koh Samui, strolling hand in hand through these delightful areas.

If you wish to truly unwind and embrace the laid-back island life, opt for some of the smaller islands such as Koh Mook, Koh Ngai, or Koh Lanta, where you can enjoy more seclusion and a more traditional, local experience than on the more popular islands.

For the adventurous

Dream of embarking on adventures and sharing new, exciting experiences together on your honeymoon?

Explore the jungles of Khao Sok National Park in southern Thailand. Expect ancient rainforests, wild animals, and boat safaris on the emerald green Cheow Lan Lake waiting to enchant you.

You can also explore the lush Khao Yai National Park in central Thailand, where you can witness beautiful waterfalls and fascinating wildlife, including monkeys and elephants.

If you’re keen to venture off the beaten path, head to Northern Thailand and explore the famous Mae Hong Son loop. This route, with its numerous hairpin bends, guides you through mountain passes, lush forests, verdant rice fields, and tranquil rivers.

For the culturally curious

If you want culture and insight into Thailand’s history to be part of your honeymoon, then the central and northern parts of Thailand are particularly worth considering.

In Northern Thailand, you’ll find the country’s second-largest city, Chiang Mai, brimming with culture, history, and stunning nature. For instance, visit the Wat Inthakhin Sadue Mueang Temple, renowned for its 700-year-old white Buddha statue. Or cycle past the ancient Tha Phae Gate, where you can learn more about Chiang Mai’s history.

Further south, delve into Thailand’s fascinating history in the former capitals of Ayutthaya or Sukhothai. In Ayutthaya, you can explore historic temple ruins and the UNESCO world heritage Ayutthaya Historical Park, while in Sukhothai, you can cycle among stupas, temple, and royal palace ruins in the Sukhothai Historical Park.

Tip: If you’re keen to experience more Southeast Asian culture, consider combining your trip to Thailand with a visit to Cambodia, Laos, or Vietnam.

For the city slickers

Dreaming of a lively honeymoon in a bustling metropolis? Thailand’s capital, Bangkok, has everything you’re dreaming of.

There are historic districts with cultural experiences such as the Grand Palace or Wat Phra Kaew temple, modern skyscrapers, charming streets with street food and shopping, and so much more.

Bangkok is also the perfect place to sample the many delicious Thai dishes that are celebrated worldwide. With everything from fine Michelin-starred restaurants to small local street food vendors, there’s something for every palate in Thailand’s capital. Try the iconic Pad Thai, spicy Tom Yum soup, or the many delectable curry dishes, for instance.

Tip: If you’re dreaming of enhancing your honeymoon with a fine dining experience at a Michelin restaurant, Thailand is an incredibly affordable place to do so. Just remember to book your table well in advance.
