Thailand Tour Packages from India | Starting ₹21,000 Per Person
Planning a Thailand trip from India? You're closer than you think. Bangkok is just 3 to 4 hours by air from Delhi, Mumbai, or Bangalore. Travalot's Thailand tour packages from India start from ₹21,000 per person for 3 nights, covering your hotel stays, airport transfers, and top sightseeing experiences. Whether you want a 5-night budget getaway, a 7-night family holiday, or a 10-night honeymoon with beachfront stays in Krabi and Phuket, we put it together so you don't have to.
What makes Thailand trip packages such a natural fit for Indian travellers? The spice levels in Thai food feel like home. The travel time is shorter than most Indian domestic flights. And from November to April, the weather is the kind that makes you forget the date. Temples, islands, street markets, and rooftop bars; Thailand doesn't ask you to choose.
At Travalot, we've curated Thailand packages that cover the country's best: the buzz of Bangkok, the beaches of Phuket and Krabi, the calm of Chiang Mai, and the party-meets-paradise energy of Pattaya and Koh Samui. Every itinerary is built around what actually matters on a trip: good accommodation, smooth transfers, and no wasted days.

Best Destinations to Explore on Your Thailand Trip
The Thailand tour package has various destinations that regularly top every traveller's list, and each one feels completely different from the others. Here's what each is really like.
1. Bangkok:
If there's one city in Southeast Asia that genuinely has everything, it's Bangkok. In the morning, you're standing barefoot in the Grand Palace, watching saffron-robed monks move through temple courtyards. By evening, you're 77 floors up at the Mahanakhon Skywalk with the city glittering in every direction. After midnight, Khao San Road is still going strong.
Bangkok is Thailand's cultural and commercial capital, home to nearly 12 million people and an equal number of street food stalls, night markets, rooftop bars, and golden temples. For first-time visitors from India, it's often the city that resets your idea of what a city can be.
Top places to visit in Bangkok: Grand Palace, Wat Phra Kaew (Temple of the Emerald Buddha), Mahanakhon Skywalk, Safari World, Chatuchak Weekend Market, Chao Phraya River dinner cruise
Best time to visit Bangkok: November to February (cool and dry, ideal for sightseeing)
2. Pattaya:
Pattaya has reinvented itself over the past decade. Yes, the nightlife is still legendary. Walking Street and the beach road clubs draw a crowd until dawn. But today's Pattaya is just as interesting in daylight. The Sanctuary of Truth is one of the most remarkable wooden structures in Asia, an entirely hand-carved temple still under construction since 1981. Coral Island offers excellent snorkelling. Nong Nooch Tropical Garden, spread across 600 acres, is genuinely spectacular for families. For Indian travellers, Pattaya is often the first stop on a Bangkok–Pattaya–Phuket circuit, and it's a good one.
Top places to visit in Pattaya: Sanctuary of Truth, Coral Island, Nong Nooch Tropical Garden, Art in Paradise, Mini Siam
Best time to visit Pattaya: November to February
3. Phuket:
Phuket is Thailand's largest island, connected to the mainland by a bridge, so you don't need a boat to get here. What you do need is a plan, because Phuket is big enough that picking the right beach matters. Patong is vibrant and social while Kata and Karon are quieter, with cleaner water. Freedom Beach, accessible only by boat, is the kind of postcard beach you won't forget.
Beyond the beaches, Phuket has a genuinely interesting Old Town with Sino-Portuguese architecture, excellent seafood restaurants, the Big Buddha watching over the island from 45 metres, and the Simon Cabaret Show, a world-famous cabaret performance that sells out weeks in advance.
Top places to visit in Phuket: Patong Beach, Kata Beach, Karon Beach, Big Buddha, Phuket Old Town, Bangla Road, Simon Cabaret Show
Best time to visit Phuket: December to March (Andaman Sea is calm, water visibility is excellent)
4. Phi Phi Islands:
The Phi Phi Islands are 45 minutes by speedboat from Phuket, and the journey itself is worth it, arriving into the bay with limestone cliffs rising on both sides is one of those travel moments you remember for years.
Phi Phi Don is the inhabited island, with guesthouses, restaurants, and a beach strip that gets lively after dark. Phi Phi Leh, the smaller, uninhabited island, is where Maya Bay sits, the beach made famous by the film *The Beach*. The water here is shallow enough to walk, and the coral just offshore is excellent for snorkelling. Dive operators on the island run PADI courses and guided dive trips to Shark Point and Anemone Reef, where you have a genuine chance of seeing reef sharks and sea turtles.
Top places to visit in Phi Phi Islands: Maya Bay, Monkey Beach, Bamboo Island, Viking Cave, Ko Mai Phai (Bamboo Island)
Best time to visit Phi Phi Islands: November to April
5. Krabi:
Krabi's landscape is something the rest of the destinations in Thailand tour packages simply don't have, tall, sheer limestone karsts rising from turquoise water, with jungle right to the edge. Railay Beach, only reachable by longtail boat because the cliffs block road access, is one of the most photographed beaches in the world. Rock climbers come from across the globe for the routes here, ranging from beginner-friendly to expert-only.
For Indian travellers, Krabi pairs exceptionally well with Phuket on a combined itinerary, the two are about 2.5 hours apart by road, and the contrast is perfect: Phuket for buzz and beaches, Krabi for landscapes and water sports.
Top places to visit in Krabi: Railay Beach, Hong Island, Koh Poda, the Four Islands, Emerald Pool, Tiger Cave Temple (Wat Tham Suea)
Best time to visit Krabi: November to March
6. Chiang Mai:
Every Thailand package that focuses only on Bangkok and the beaches misses something important: Chiang Mai, the ancient capital of the former Lanna Kingdom in northern Thailand. The pace here is completely different. The Old City is surrounded by a moat and crumbling ramparts, with over 300 temples inside its walls, including Wat Chedi Luang, built in the 14th century, and Wat Phra Singh, one of the most sacred temples in northern Thailand.
Chiang Mai is also where you'll find Thailand's most ethical elephant sanctuaries, the Elephant Nature Park in particular, where rescued elephants roam freely and visitors spend the day feeding and bathing them rather than riding them. Cooking classes here go deeper than Bangkok's tourist versions. And in November, Chiang Mai hosts the Yi Peng Lantern Festival, where tens of thousands of paper lanterns are released into the night sky simultaneously.
Top places to visit in Chiang Mai: Wat Chedi Luang, Wat Phra Singh, Doi Suthep Temple, Night Bazaar, Chang Puak Gate Night Market, Elephant Nature Park
Best time to visit Chiang Mai: November to February (and November specifically if you want Yi Peng)
7. Koh Samui:
Koh Samui sits in the Gulf of Thailand, about 30 minutes by flight from Bangkok or accessible by ferry from the mainland. Unlike Phuket's Andaman Sea beaches, Koh Samui's best beaches, Chaweng and Lamai, peak between December and February, when the Gulf of Thailand is calm. The island has a distinctly upscale character compared to most Thai islands, with a strong lineup of luxury resorts and spa retreats.
The Secret Buddha Garden, tucked into the hills above Nathon, is one of the most unusual attractions in Thailand's holiday package, offering a private garden of over 60 hand-sculpted mythological statues built over decades by a local fruit farmer. Worth every minute of the bumpy road up.
Top places to visit in Koh Samui: Chaweng Beach, Lamai Beach, Wat Plai Laem, Ang Thong Marine Park, Secret Buddha Garden
Best time to visit Koh Samui: December to February

Railay is technically a peninsula, but the limestone cliffs behind it make road access impossible, the only way in is by longtail boat from Ao Nang, a 15-minute ride. Once you're there, you have four beaches, a lagoon accessible only by scrambling through a jungle cave, excellent rock climbing routes across all skill levels, and sea kayaking into the surrounding karst formations. Day trippers usually come from Krabi or Phuket; staying overnight gives you the beach almost entirely to yourself after 5 PM.

Best Time for Thailand Trip
Thailand is a year-round destination, but the experience varies significantly by season. Here's what to expect in each.
Peak Season: November to April
This is when most Thailand tour packages from India get booked, and for good reason. The skies are clear, humidity is low, and temperatures sit between 25°C and 32°C across most of the country. Beach conditions are excellent on both the Andaman (Phuket, Krabi) and Gulf (Koh Samui, Koh Phangan) coasts, with good visibility for snorkelling and diving. November is particularly special if you can align with the Yi Peng Lantern Festival in Chiang Mai. February to April can see prices rise around long weekends and Indian school holidays, book 2 to 3 months ahead.
Shoulder Season: May and October
The transition months on either side of the monsoon. Prices drop noticeably, crowds thin out, and the country is still very much open for travel. May is when Thailand's famous Songkran Water Festival wraps up (mid-April), and tourism is quieter. October is the tail end of monsoon; Chiang Mai's mountains are lush and gorgeous. The northern Andaman coast (Phuket, Krabi) begins recovering in late October.
Wet Season: June to September
The southwest monsoon brings rain to the western coast, Phuket and Krabi can have rough seas from May through September, with some boat services suspended. That said, Bangkok, Pattaya, and Chiang Mai remain fully open and accessible. Hotels and flights are significantly cheaper, and the country's waterfalls, rice paddies, and jungle landscapes are at their most dramatic. If you don't mind occasional afternoon downpours, the wet season offers genuinely excellent value.
How To Reach Thailand from India?
By Air:
The Practical Choice. Direct flights connect multiple Indian cities to Bangkok (Suvarnabhumi Airport, BKK) and to Phuket (HKT) and Krabi (KBZ) airports on the Andaman coast.
Flight times:
- Delhi to Bangkok: 4 hours
- Mumbai to Bangkok: 4 hours
- Bangalore to Bangkok: 3.5 hours
- Kolkata to Bangkok: 3 hours
- Bangalore to Phuket: 3.5 hours (now expanded with new direct frequencies for 2026)
Airlines operating direct India–Thailand routes include IndiGo, Air India, Thai Airways, Air Asia, and SpiceJet. Round-trip economy fares typically range from ₹12,000 to ₹25,000, depending on season and booking lead time.
Thailand Visa Requirements for Indian Travellers: Updated 2026
60-Day Visa-Free Entry for Indian Passport Holders
As of 2026, Indian citizens can enter Thailand visa-free for up to 60 days for tourism and short business visits. This replaced the earlier 30-day Visa on Arrival arrangement and is currently valid indefinitely until further notice by the Thai government.
What does this means for you?
No visa sticker, no fees, no embassy appointment required for stays up to 60 days
A one-time 30-day extension is available from a local Thai immigration office (fee: approximately ₹1,500 / THB 1,900), allowing a total stay of up to 90 days
The change has been confirmed by the Royal Thai Embassy in New Delhi

Frequently Asked Questions for Thailand

The best way to get a tourist sim card in Thailand is through the kiosks which are there at the airport. You will need to show your passport and there you can select a prepaid plan according to your needs.
To travel to Thailand, you will need a passport with a validity of six months, a Visa, a return ticket, hotel bookings, bank statement and some passport sized photos. Apart from these documents it is also suggested to have travel insurance, and any health documents for a smoother Thailand trip.
If you are planning a trip to Thailand, you should consider Travalot to book your Thailand tour package as it is one of the best travel companies in India. They specialize in customising itineraries tailored as per your requirements yet ensuring the best price in market with no compromise in service quality, your Thailand trip with Travalot will be a hassle free experience.
For a first-time visitor, a Thailand package from India should be 6 to 7 nights, which is the sweet spot, enough to see Bangkok (2 nights), Pattaya or Krabi (2 nights), and Phuket (2 nights) without feeling rushed. If you want to include Chiang Mai or Koh Samui, extend to 9 to 10 nights.
A complete 6-night Thailand trip costs, including return flights, hotel, breakfast, transfers, and core sightseeing, typically starts around ₹35,000–₹55,000 per person for a 3-star package and ₹70,000–₹1,20,000 for 4-star and above. Solo travellers typically pay a small single supplement; couples and groups get better per-person pricing.
Thailand is consistently rated among Asia's safest destinations for tourists. The country receives over 35 million international visitors annually, with infrastructure, tourist police, and hospital services specifically built around traveller needs. Solo female travellers regularly cite Thailand, particularly Bangkok, Chiang Mai, and the main islands, as safe and welcoming. Standard precautions apply as in any tourist destination.
Thailand uses the Thai Baht (THB). As of 2026, 1 THB is ₹2.40–2.60. You can exchange Indian Rupees at Bangkok's Suvarnabhumi Airport upon arrival, at money changers in the city (typically better rates than the airport), or withdraw THB from ATMs with your international debit/credit card. Carrying ₹15,000–20,000 worth of THB as cash for the first day or two is a sensible starting point; most hotels and restaurants accept cards.
Thai cuisine naturally uses a lot of vegetables, tofu, and rice noodles, but traditional Thai cooking also uses fish sauce and shrimp paste in many dishes that appear vegetarian. In tourist areas, vegetarian-friendly menus are clearly marked, and Indian restaurants are readily available in Bangkok, Phuket, and Pattaya. Inform Travalot of your dietary requirements and we'll factor this into your itinerary and hotel selection.
We strongly recommend it. Thailand's private hospitals are excellent but not inexpensive for uninsured travellers. A comprehensive travel insurance policy covering medical, trip cancellation, and baggage loss typically costs ₹500–2,000 for a 7-day trip. Travalot can arrange this as part of your package.
The best time to book Thailand packages from India for peak season travel is November–February, and it is recommended to book 2 to 3 months ahead to secure the best flight and hotel rates. For Yi Peng (November) or any travel during Indian school holiday periods (Diwali, December, April), book 3 to 4 months in advance, Chiang Mai hotels in particular sell out early for Yi Peng.
Phuket is larger, more developed, and more varied, beach resorts, nightlife, shopping, and family attractions all in one island. Krabi is more scenic, quieter, and famous for its dramatic limestone cliffs and rock-climbing. Many travellers combine both on the same trip: 3 nights in Phuket, 2 nights in Krabi.
Yes, Thailand is an upcoming destination for adventurous travellers, offering activities like white-water rafting in Chiang Mai, rock climbing in Krabi, scuba diving in Phuket and much more.
