Thailand Islands Tour Guide. The Best Islands in Thailand for Vacation, Honeymoon, Tourism, and Business Environment. Thailand and its Islands. Seven Thailand Islands for the best of tourism. Phuket Islands, Koh Chang Island, Ko Phi Phi Islands, Koh Lanta Islan, Koh Lipe Island, Koh Phangan Island, Koh Samui Islands. The attractions of Thailand are myriad ruined cities, ancient monasteries, Buddhist monks, colorful hill tribes, floating markets, rave parties, dense rainforests, exotic wildlife, tropical islands, golden beaches and pristine coral reefs. Then there's Bangkok, the most exuberant capital city in Southeast Asia, which would justify a trip to Thailand all by itself. The Thai people are famously hospitable, and Thailand was one of the first corners of Southeast Asia to really open up to outsiders helped by the 19th-century king of Siam Rama IV and his love of all things Western. It was Rama IV who launched Thailand on the path to modernisation, and also persuaded his people to swap chopsticks for knives and forks. This travel smorgasbord has attracted everyone from backpackers to billionaires, and visitors can find any level of comfort they desire, from hippy hostels to five-star palaces. If anything, Thailand has become more upmarket as a destination since its backpacker heyday, with air-conditioning everywhere and almost every hotel offering Thai massages and spa treatments. As well as relaxation and what could be more relaxing than a massage on the beach? Thailand is a place for adventure. The beaches and islands of the south call out to scuba divers, rock-climbers and water sports enthusiasts, while the dense jungles of the north are a natural playground for trekkers and wildlife spotters. Try bathing under a waterfall in an orchid-filled jungle clearing you won't forget it. Then there's the cuisine one of the world's finest, and certainly one of the spiciest. From fine restaurants to street stalls and night markets, Thailand always seems to have a fork in its hand. Above all else, though, Thailand is a place to feel at ease stroll along the sand, take tea with a monk, snorkel over a coral reef, and let the stresses of modern life slowly slip away.
