Dear Travelers,
March is a good time to be in Thailand as the country moves into its sunny summer season. The weather offers the perfect incentive to hit the beach and enjoy the great outdoors. From the sandy beaches of Ko Samui in the south to the hill trekking excitement of Chiang Mai in the north, Thailand has something for everyone. An added bonus is that hotel room rates tend to be slightly lower this month than in the previous four months, making the country a very affordable option for that short getaway holiday.
As we celebrate our 50th Anniversary, we promise to reveal even more new products and services, making Thailand an irresistible destination. An online Thailand specialist program and joint promotion opportunities are on the way. Feel free to contact us for more details.
Sincerely,

Chattan Kunjara Na Ayudhya
Director
