Editor’s Take
Most trip reviews tend to focus on some or all of these 5 key areas, not all of which may be relevant to you: the tour guide, travel company, service level, country or countries traveled in, and the trip itinerary. Remember, just because you see a 1 star review doesn’t necessarily mean that person disliked the country.
Reviews of tours in Thailand are between 4 and 5 stars. Travelers to Thailand cover a very wide range, from young adventurous backpackers, to older and seasoned travelers seeking a more slow paced cultural tour.
It is common for Thailand tours to cover more than one country, so bear in mind that many reviews for Thailand tours also include the experience in the surrounding Southeast Asia region. Reviewers often point to how being on a tour helped them relax and enjoy, without having to stress about the language, where to eat, and where to stay.
Having a local guide is hugely beneficial for traveling in a country like Thailand, particularly considering the language barrier and the food. Thailand is very popular for street food, however it is helpful to have a local guide to recommend the best (and safest by western standards) options.
Traveling in Thailand is an experience for the senses - for some a treat. For others, acclimating to the intense sounds and smells prevalent in Thailand’s famous markets takes a little more getting used to.
If these cultural experiences cause too much of an assault on the senses it may contribute to a negative experience, so if you consider yourself an adventurous traveler take these negative reviews with a grain of salt. What was affronting to them will probably not be a big issue for you.
Accommodations in Thailand can vary widely - it will depend on your tour price point and style. A majority of Thailand tours are in the basic realm - commonly attended by the 18-30 crowd - expect very minimal amenities.
