Bangkok

Bangkok, Thailand's vibrant and fascinating capital city, is just a one hour flight from Samui's sunny shores. Regular flights operate daily which means you can just step onto a plane in Samui after breakfast and arrive in Bangkok before lunch.

While you could spend weeks exploring Bangkok's temples, markets and attractions, a few days will allow a glimpse into this amazing city. Despite the gleaming hi-rise, sophisticated restaurants, contemporary hotels and modern transport systems, Bangkok remains essentially an Asian city. Noisy, frantic, always in motion, both day and night and where every minute is an experience.
