Thailand is one of those destinations where beaches, modern cities, shopping, food, culture, and entertainment can all be combined into one trip. For our 7-day Thailand trip, we decided to visit Pattaya first and Bangkok afterward.
This itinerary is particularly suitable for families who want a mixture of relaxation, sightseeing, shopping, local food, and city experiences without making the trip too rushed.
