A short guide about Train Journeys to Thailand
Thailand lies in the heart of Southeast Asia, making it a natural gateway to Indochina, Myanmar and Southern China. Its shape and geography divide into four natural regions : the mountains and forests of the North; the vast rice fields of the Central Plains; the semi-arid farm lands of the Northeast plateau; and the tropical islands and long coastline of the peninsula South.
You will find it all in the 'Land of Smiles' from idyllic, unspoilt beaches with turquoise seas and pure white sands, to bustling cities sporting exotic markets and a vibrant colourful nightlife. It is easy to see why Thailand has become one of the most popular tourist destinations for the adventurous and young at heart.
To those willing to do a little exploring - a rich tapestry of past eras, turbulent, often bloody history has left Thailand scattered with ruins, forgotten temples and deserted cities.
Thailand tours cater for lovers of luxurious accommodation and those looking for the more rustic splendour of cheap and comfortable beaches and islands. A variety of activities including Snorkelling, diving and a host of watersports will delights you around the Islands, while inland enthusiasts can trek into the mountains or cycle across the flat river areas of the northeast.
