Luxury Thailand Tours, Private & Tailor-made

Idyllic islands, vibrant cities, beautiful countryside and some of the world's friendliest people

When I think back to Thailand I remember the food, the beaches and the smiles. Everyone should enjoy a cooking class in Thailand and this is one of my favourite memories. We headed out in the morning to a local market and picked up fresh vegetables, spices, fish and meat before going back to the kitchen to pound the lemongrass, galangal, chillies and kaffir lime leaves into a paste for the green curry. There are no food processors here and we were put to shame in how quickly our arms ached using a pestle and mortar. The smells, tastes and fun we had in the class will stay with me forever. The result was a real feast of a Thai green curry, a lamb massaman, a pad Thai and a papaya salad finished off with fresh mango, sticky coconut rice and coconut milk. Just the best.

Thailand is a country that ignites the senses with its rich culture, natural beauty and incredibly hospitable people. From the bustling metropolis of Bangkok to the pristine islands and rolling highlands, there is so much to discover.

Our in-depth, first-hand knowledge of Thailand means we can create bespoke itineraries that cater to your interests. Whether you want to dive headfirst into its intoxicating cities, experience the incredible cuisine or simply relax on white sandy beaches surrounded by the sparkling waters of the Andaman, Jacada Travel will help you discover your perfect Thailand.

Soak up the strong cultural heritage of the north in the towns of Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai where our expert local guides will show you around the temples and palaces. This is such a beautiful part of the country. We recommend hiking, cycling and hot air ballooning as a wonderful way to appreciate it. This is also a great place to learn about Thai cuisine with visits to the local markets: our guides will take you to stock up on fresh herbs and spices, and we’ll organise cooking classes so you can learn how to create fragrant, authentic dishes.

Then take your pick of the Thai islands. Powder soft sand and turquoise waters make these some of the world’s most beautiful and with so many to choose from, there is an island to suit everyone. And of course, there’s Bangkok – a natural start and end point for your trip and an incredibly vibrant city that really showcases the best of ancient and modern Thai culture.

When to Go

Thailand is characterised by the rainy, hot and cool seasons. The north is less humid and experiences the greatest range of temperatures with cold nights during the cool season. The temperatures are more consistent in southern Thailand but the Andaman coast is hit hardest during the rainy season.
