international tourists to

Thailand

increased by 7.27% despite the global

as tours to give visitors an insight into the traditions, cultures, wildlife and

landscape of these beautiful islands.

Phuket

is the most famous Thai isle. It is a mountainous island surrounded by

golden sand beaches that are lapped by the warm waters of the Andaman Sea.

Holidays in Phuket from Freedom Asia can include Thai cooking classes, a

sunset dinner onboard a traditional Thai boat and a cruise in a long tail boat to

Phang Nga Bay Marine Park. Phuket holidays offer exceptional value for money

with accommodation starting at just £32 per person, per night.

Koh Samui off the east coast of

Thailand

offers a more relaxed pace of life than

Phuket

. There are temples and waterfalls to discover inland and a

breathtakingly beautiful coast to explore. Koh Samui comes to life at night with

a range of restaurants, cafes, bars and clubs offering a welcoming blend of

Thai and international cultures. Accommodation in Koh Samui is available from

£44 per person, per night.

After the 2004 tsunami Koh Phi Phi has rebuilt itself to be even more beautiful

and tourist friendly. Freedom

Asia

has a selection of premium hotel

accommodation available on what is one of the most picturesque of all the Thai

islands; prices start at £99 per person, per night at the truly luxurious Zeavola

resort on the beachfront of Koh Phi Phi's northern tip.
