BEFORE TRAVELLING

UNDERSTANDING THAILAND BEFORE THE TRAVEL . Thailand is popularly known as the "land of smiles", while the country's tourist board lures visitors with the slogan "Amazing Thailand."

Visitors to this Southeast Asian country are stuck by the friendliness of its people and by the great variety of its attractions : it's islands and beaches, mountains and jungles , exotic culture and temples, and celebrated cuisine.

HEALTH. The standard of healthcare in large populated areas such as Bangkok and other major cities is quite good so you don't need to worry for your holidays in Thailand or scare to travel around the country . Rural areas and smaller towns may not have adequate facilities however. Most major hotels will have a doctor on call since there is no official emergency service contact numbers throughout Thailand. Costs of treatment and repatriation can get quite steep so ensure that you have adequate travel insurance before departing for Thailand. The tap water is not safe to drink, and should be boiled before use. The use of bottled water is recommended. Dairy products should be avoided as most are un-pasteurized . Pasteurized milk can be bought in larger cities but always check the label before consumption. Raw fruits and vegetables should be washed and peeled before consumption. Caution should be observed when purchasing food from street vendors.
