Thais have a deep affection for children, which is embedded in their culture
Although it takes the best part of twelve hours to reach Bangkok, your patience will be rewarded as the Thais have a deep affection for children which is embedded in their culture.
The Thai people are very public in their affection for youngsters so be prepared for lots of attention from the locals who will want to interact with your children and show their affection. You might even find yourself being beckoned to the front of queues such is their respect of the family unit. Crime is very low in Thai cities and you will feel safe wherever you choose to travel.
A great transportation infrastructure means the length and breadth of the country is easily accessible and malaria free in almost all regions. If you wish to avoid internal flights the train is a wonderfully relaxing and fun way to travel.
Although the peak season runs from November to the end of March, you can travel to Thailand any time of the year and benefit from the various microclimates which means it is possible to escape the heat of the south if you so desire.
In Bangkok, a cycle ride will let children see a greener more traditional side of Bangkok while a tour of the city using a combination of sky train and tuk tuk(a local motorised form of transportation) is a thrilling way to explore. In the north there are elephant rides and hill tribes to be discovered, while in the south, where the sun shines virtually all year around, there are a fantastic selection of beach properties for all budgets. Swimming off most beaches is safe and the sea is wonderfully temperate.
