AF Holidays were fantastic. The bus was always kept immaculate and the driver was very polite. Song our guide was very knowledge and well spoken. A guide can make or break a holiday and Song was excellent. He helped make our time in Thailand very interesting and enjoyable.

I had such a great time on this famil and am so glad I was chosen to go. I am already planning my next trip back to Thailand as I enjoyed it so much and think there is a lot more for me to see!

We were met by Mr Prasong Wandee ( better known to us as Song) from Absolutely Fantastic Holidays, he was fantastic, anticipating our every need, such as much needed chilled water and chilled paper towels every time we clambered back on board the bus after sightseeing or shopping in the Bangkok heat.

My first visit to Thailand was 13 years ago before I entered the travel industry.
As a backpacker, I had mixed experiences, so I was keen to revisit Thailand through different eyes. I have certainly been 'won over' by the generosity of our hosts, the elegance, service and amenities of the hotels, the professionalism of most tour operators and the beauty of the people and the countryside itself.
I found Bangkok, while still bustling, a cleaner and less congested city than I remembered. That impression was helped no doubt by the smooth transporting we experienced by our ground operator, 'Absolutely Fantastic Holidays' and the organisation of Mr Song. It was a very enjoyable and well organised famil, and as a result I feel inspired with new confidence to recommend Thailand as a holiday destination to my clients.

What I experienced on this trip was more than words or pictures could ever explain. Each day was an adventure and I value the knowledge and culture I have brought back with me. Talking about Thailand to my clients gives me pure joy and total excitement; I wish everyone could have the experience I gained on this famil.

Kop khun ka – a million times for a wonderful famil experience. On our last day in Hua Hin before leaving for the airport in Bangkok I walked along the beach and reflected on my time in Thailand. It is the Land of Smiles with great food, great shopping, beautiful beaches, hotel pools to die for and a destination to provide a truly memorable holiday for my clients. Thank you Tourism Thailand for the opportunity to experience the beautiful country – most appreciated.

Before I left I thought it was going to be horribly hot and dirty and, to be honest, a little third-world. After going, I can't recommend it enough - the rainy season was cool enough that I wasn't too uncomfortable, the shopping was great, the spa treatments were amazing and the people were so very friendly. Definitely much more than I expected and not a third world experience at all!
