Planning a trip somewhere can be exciting, but it can also feel overwhelming. Maybe you’re trying to piece together different people’s preferred places to visit, or you’re trying to go somewhere off the beaten path, or maybe ‘s just difficult to piece everything together from abroad. After all, there are so many islands, cities, activities and travel options in Thailand, so it’s only natural that creating a perfect itinerary will take some time, coordination, and perhaps some local insight.
At GDO Thailand, we help travelers design personalized travel packages that reflect their interests, preferences, and travel styles. This way, your holiday can feel effortless from the moment you arrive. We do not operate any tours ourselves, but we work closely with a trusted network of local partners across the country. We’re here to guide you, make informed recommendations, and help coordinate and book the experiences and attractions you wish to go to. The result is a smoother and more enjoyable trip that’s tailored to your requirements.
Why choose a customized travel package?
Thailand has something for almost every time of traveler, but existing itineraries are catered to the majority, and will not necessarily cover all the places you want to go. A customized travel package ensures your trip is built entirely around your schedule, interests, and group size. Depending on group size and where you wish to go, the cost can even be only marginally higher than a standard tour package.
Here’s why it’s worth choosing a customized travel package when you visit Thailand:
1. Travel at your own pace
Whether you want to see as many places as you can in 1-2 days or want to fully immerse yourself into different attractions and experiences, a customized travel package will let you travel at your own pace. This also means you don’t have to be ready to leave your hotel at 7 am if not absolutely necessary (or unless you want to).
2. Visit places that actually interest you
Many tour packages group together several destinations, whether due to similarity or distance between attractions. This means that you might go on a full day tour visiting 3-4 places only having wanted to visit 1-2 of those. A customized travel package allows you to visit places that actually interest you, eat at places that locals might eat at, visit places that the kids might also enjoy, or just avoid the busy tourist areas. It all depends on what you’re looking for.
3. Avoid common travel mistakes
Standard itineraries that you can book for 1-2 days may also mean you’re paying above-market rates, that you end up visiting places at peak times so you’re able to fully immerse yourself in the attraction or experience, or maybe even end up at hotels in inconvenient areas that may not allow you to go for your own side excursions afterwards.
