Bangkok is sensory maximalism, million-dollar malls over canal shacks, monks on the Skytrain, and the best street food on earth on every corner. The royal old city holds Thailand’s holiest sites; the rest of the city holds its appetite.
Chiang Mai was the Lanna kingdom’s capital for centuries after its founding in 1296, and it still moves at temple pace: 300-odd wats, a moated square mile of old city, and a sacred mountain rising straight off the last street. It is also Thailand’s kitchen for northern food.
Thailand’s largest island funded itself on tin and rubber a century before tourists came, and the Sino-Portuguese shophouses of its old town remember it. Beyond them: the Andaman’s clearest water, limestone bays, and thirty-plus beaches.
Museums, parks, and neighborhoods are on the full Thailand itinerary, sequenced into a realistic day-by-day plan with transport between cities.
