Thailand Family tours

Yes, there are many family-focused resorts in Thailand that are safe and well suited for families traveling with children.

These resorts often offer kids clubs where children can safely participate in supervised activities with trained staff and animation teams, allowing parents to relax and enjoy their time.

In addition, many family resorts offer dedicated family swimming pools and mini waterparks, making the stay more enjoyable for children.

One important factor we always verify when recommending family resorts is the smoking policy. Since cannabis was legalized in Thailand, smoking is allowed in certain designated areas. However, many family-focused resorts have strict non-smoking policies. At Royal Vacation, we carefully select family-friendly resorts that provide a comfortable and appropriate environment for families.

When traveling to Thailand with children, especially for the first time, we always recommend combining three main regions to cover the main highlights of the country:

Bangkok and surrounding areas

Bangkok is an essential destination for families visiting Thailand for the first time. We recommend staying at least 3 nights to explore the city comfortably.

Families can visit iconic temples, explore canals and floating markets, and enjoy attractions such as the Mahanakhon SkyWalk, Sea Life Aquarium, Madame Tussauds, and Siam Amazing Park waterpark.

Combining cultural visits with family-friendly attractions creates the perfect balance for a family holiday in Bangkok.

Northern Thailand: Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai

Northern Thailand offers unique cultural and wildlife experiences.

Chiang Rai is famous for its iconic temples, including the White Temple and Blue Temple, which are often very impressive for children due to their unusual designs.

Chiang Mai is one of the highlights of any Thailand family tour. Families can visit ethical elephant sanctuaries, where children can interact with elephants in a safe and responsible environment. This is often one of the most memorable experiences of the trip.

Southern Thailand: Beach destinations

Ending the tour at one of Thailand’s beach destinations is the perfect way for families to relax.

The best destination depends on the travel season:

• November to April: Phuket and Krabi offer the best weather conditions
• July and August: Koh Samui, Koh Phangan, and Koh Tao offer better weather during this period

Island trips and snorkeling excursions are highly recommended, as children enjoy exploring marine life in shallow, clear waters.

Yes, Thailand is one of the most family-friendly destinations in the world. The country offers excellent tourism infrastructure, many family-friendly attractions, theme parks, and activities suitable for all ages. Thailand is also considered a very safe destination, and families can travel comfortably throughout the country.

We recommend at least 10 days to explore the main highlights of Thailand. Ideally, 14 to 21 days allows families to explore multiple regions at a comfortable and relaxed pace.

Yes, Thailand is a very safe destination for families traveling with children. Like any destination, there are certain nightlife areas that are more adult-oriented, which we always help families avoid when planning their itinerary. Outside of these areas, Thailand offers a safe and welcoming environment for families.

Yes, Thai food is generally safe and clean. We recommend ordering non-spicy dishes for children and choosing milder food options if they are not used to strong herbs or spices. International food options are also widely available throughout Thailand.

Yes, Thailand’s beaches are generally safe for children under parental supervision. During the high season, many beaches offer calm and shallow waters, creating ideal conditions for families. We always recommend the best beach destinations based on travel season.

Yes, special requests can absolutely be arranged during our Thailand family tours.

At Royal Vacation, we regularly arrange specific requirements for children depending on each family’s needs. This may include child seats in vehicles, special meal requirements, baby cots, stroller arrangements, or selecting hotels with proper kids facilities.

If children have dietary restrictions or specific preferences, we also ensure that restaurants and hotels are properly informed in advance. Our goal is to ensure that every family member travels comfortably and safely, and we always adjust the arrangements based on the family’s specific situation.

Room arrangements depend mainly on the number of family members and the ages of the children.

Many hotels in Thailand offer dedicated family rooms that can accommodate 2 adults and 2 children comfortably in the same room. These rooms are designed specifically for families and often include additional beds or sofa beds.

If family rooms are not available, hotels usually allow:

• 2 adults and 1 child sharing the existing bedding
• or adding 1 extra bed in the room for additional comfort

Most hotels allow a maximum of 1 extra bed per room.

For larger families, many resorts offer family suites, connecting rooms, or 2-bedroom and 3-bedroom suites, which provide more space and privacy.

At Royal Vacation, we always recommend the most suitable room configuration based on the family size, children’s ages, and the hotel’s policies, ensuring comfort and convenience throughout the stay.
