Thailand has been one of the most popular travel destinations in Asia for decades. Despite natural disasters and politically turbulent times, the country has consistently recorded growing tourist numbers. It's no wonder, as Thailand offers everything that globetrotters and tourists could wish for: countless beautiful beaches, stunning islands, remote mountain landscapes, romantic rivers, graceful temples, and the irresistible charm of its inhabitants, whose innate joy of life quickly rubs off on visitors.

This compact travel guide describes all the interesting places in Thailand, even those off the main tourist routes, and guarantees good and quick orientation thanks to its structure. Each chapter begins with a double page that presents the contents alongside an overview map of the region, highlights, and page references. Color-coded page number boxes corresponding to the chapters make navigation within the book easier. Enhanced map graphics further contribute to simplified and targeted use.

Of course, the guide includes tried-and-true practical tips on travel questions from A to Z. The expanded introduction features overview pages with descriptions of all regions, a yearly overview of festivals and events, suggested itineraries, and the author's personal top tips. Many special pieces of information, such as travel advice, transportation options like tuk-tuks, and activities like rafting, trekking tours, and excursions in national parks, serve as helpful planning aids. Detailed excursions into history, land, and people distinguish this current travel guide, as well as a small Thai language guide.
