Culture, beaches, food, and romance

A Thailand honeymoon that is romantic without being predictable and indulgent without losing its sense of adventure.

This honeymoon is made for couples who want more than just a beach (though you’ll get that too). It’s about floating villas in the middle of a jungle lake, temples that still hum with centuries of ritual, sunset cocktails in the mountains, and the kind of meals you’ll still be talking about long after you’re home.

We’ve blended a little bit of everything we love about Thailand: the cultural heartbeat of Chiang Mai, the vibrant energy of Bangkok, the wild beauty of Khao Sok, and the slow, golden rhythm of Khao Lak’s beaches. It's a journey filled with thoughtful details, personal touches, and just the right balance between adventure and indulgence.

If you’re looking for a honeymoon that feels both effortless and extraordinary – something curated just for you – this one might be it.


Trip Itinerary

Day 1 Tuk-Tuk Tastes: Bangkok After Dark

Arrive in Bangkok, where you’ll be warmly welcomed by your guide at the airport and transferred to Ariyasomvilla, your tranquil boutique retreat in the heart of the city, where you'll stay for the next two nights. In the evening, dive straight into Bangkok’s vibrant street food scene with a Midnight Tuk-Tuk Food Tour. Ride through lively neighborhoods, sampling Northeastern Thai favorites like spicy papaya salad, crispy catfish, and pork meatballs. Enjoy crispy chicken noodles at a local spot, explore the colorful flower market, visit a peaceful nighttime temple, and cap off the evening with a drink at a local bar and a plate of the city’s best Pad Thai, before returning to your hotel.

Day 2 Sacred Wonders & Secret Waterways

Begin the day with a deep dive into the city's spiritual and cultural heritage on a guided Temple Trails & Prayers tour. Traveling like a local by public transport, you'll explore some of Bangkok’s most iconic sites. Witness the serene morning chanting at Wat Pho, home to the majestic 46-meter-long reclining Buddha. Continue to the Lak Mueang City Pillar, a spiritual symbol of Bangkok's founding, then marvel at the grandeur of the Grand Palace and the sacred Temple of the Emerald Buddha.

In the afternoon, embark on a Canals, Culture & Cocktails experience. Cruise along the Chao Phraya River to the glittering spires of Wat Arun, then switch to a traditional longtail boat to explore the quiet charm of Bangkok’s canals. Visit Baan Silapin (The Artist House) to experience a creative enclave nestled in a traditional teakwood home, and enjoy a relaxing coffee break amid its artistic ambiance.

February is a continuation of the pleasant weather experienced in January. The cool, dry conditions persist, creating a comfortable atmosphere for travellers.

August

Rainfall continues in August, but the east coast islands like Koh Samui and Koh Phangan tend to have better weather during this period.

On August 12th, Thailand celebrates the Queen's Birthday, a national holiday. It's a time when Thais show their love and respect for the monarchy.

Expand

September

September marks the transition as the rainy season starts to wane. The weather gradually improves, particularly towards the latter part of the month.

Mahidol Day on September 24th is another national holiday, commemorating the life and contributions of Prince Mahidol, the father of modern medicine and public health in Thailand.

October

October is a great time to visit as the rainy season recedes, and the weather becomes more comfortable. You'll notice a decrease in rainfall, and conditions become ideal for travel.

November offers pleasant weather with less humidity. It's an excellent time for outdoor exploration and activities.
