We will guide you by the months that are most favorable for traveling to Thailand. Everything is to the point: the weather, prices for tours in 2019, features of the resorts.

The tourist season in Thailand continues all year round. Nevertheless, the question of where and when is the best time to go on vacation is always relevant. Today we will share information based on personal experience 3 trips (were in Phuket, Pattaya, Krabi and Bangkok) and of course reviews from travelers and bloggers:

  • When does the beach season in Thailand begin and end?
  • where the sea is warmer
  • How do travel prices differ depending on the changing seasons?
  • when to fly for cheap fruit
  • and is it possible in low season Is it better to relax than at high altitude?

For greater interest, we note that in 2019 a tour to Thailand for two can be found from 70,000 rubles for 10 days. Where to look for such profitable options? We'll talk about it in two sections below :)

Search for cheap tours on your own. Best services

You shouldn’t wait for a tasty offer from above and rely on third parties, you need to take matters into your own hands and look for trips yourself! It's not difficult and even more interesting :)

There are three cool sites that we (and tens of thousands of other travelers) have tested:

Cool because they compare prices for tours from all tour operators at once and give out the most profitable options. Simply put, it’s like Skyscanner, only for tours :) We research the desired destination on each service, study the schedule of tour prices by month, adjust the dates and requirements for the hotel and book what we like where it’s cheaper.

As our practice shows, Travelata and LevelTravel help out in case of early booking, and Onlinetours is generous with last-minute tours. But it can also happen the other way around, so it’s worth checking out all three (and checking what promotional codes apply).

The beginning and end of the holiday season in Thailand

Phuket Island (our trip 2018)

In general, in Thailand, the holiday season is an ambiguous concept. In December you bask in the sun in Phuket, while on Koh Samui the less fortunate count the “dry” days on their fingers. In April, you regretfully conclude that you didn’t have time for hot season at Andaman Sea, and in Pattaya - near the Gulf of Thailand - at this time they do not get out of the water.

We will look at the nuances of the climate at the resorts a little lower, but for now we will summarize:

By the way, do you use Telegram? We share about our trips, money spent and non-trivial life hacks on the channel @howtrip. Check it out :)

And although high season in Thailand it starts in late autumn and ends in spring, so you shouldn’t be categorical about traveling in the summer.

Please note that all prices quoted in this article are current at the time of publication and are indicative only.

If you are determined to spend your holiday in tourist season in Thailand then democratic dates fall at the end of November-beginning of December and March-April.

The “package” boom on the beaches subsides only when the rainy season in Thailand is in full swing. However, the planes continue to deliver vacationers who are either a little more sophisticated or driven by the low cost of the tour :)

During the rainy season in Thailand, tours actually cost more on a budget - prices for tours plummet from 45,000 rubles per person in January to 34,000 rubles in May. Same story with independent rest. Considering how long it takes to fly to Thailand, a ticket cannot be super-chip, but still on off-season dates prices tend to go down: from 20,000 rubles Moscow-Bangkok-Moscow (we recommend searching on Skyscanner and Aviasales).


Kayaking excursion in the mangrove forests (Krabi) - we really enjoyed it

Is it worth going in the off-season? Based own experience- we were in Phuket in April and May - we answer that yes, it’s definitely worth it! We recommend that you familiarize yourself with the TOP 10 best places in Thailand.

  • We were not drenched in rain (rather, we were refreshed a couple of times for 20 minutes each),
  • I wasn’t upset by the desire of the locals to make money off the white man (they willingly go to bargaining, because there is something to sell and someone who doesn’t :)
  • we did not suffer from a lack of fruit (the same yellow mango has been ripening since April) and an overabundance of people (having visited Thailand for the first time in the low season, we were stunned by the number of tourists in the high season!)
  • Moreover, last-minute tours were available at a time or two and for very pleasant sums (our 2 weeks cost 62,000 rubles for two)

When is the rainy season in Thailand? Peculiarities

The weather at different resorts during the rainy season in Thailand varies in the amount of precipitation between months, so even at this time a full-fledged beach holiday is available.

  • Phuket: The wet season arrives at the end of May and rains until mid-October. At sea arise big waves, and the few who spend time on the island in the summer are surfers
  • Pattaya: rainy months- September and October
  • Krabi: Tourists escape the downpours for June-September
  • Koh Samui: the island is watered from October to December

Why does the rainy season vary across regions? Everything is tied to monsoon winds, which bring changes in climatic periods. Due to their different locations (the first two are near the Andaman Sea, the second are in the Gulf of Thailand), the winds do not arrive on the same schedule.

By the way, are you still afraid of the big name - rainy season? Then we come to you with this fact: we peed more in January than in May! Approximately 9 days versus 3 (sample of 2 weeks 🙂). In addition, water usually pours from the sky for no more than half an hour during the day or for 1-2 hours after sunset. The rest of the time at Thai resorts definitely comfortable temperature, but high humidity.

  • On average, prices for tours to Phuket in 2019 season start from 73,000 rubles

Season in Pattaya

Koh Larn Island (near Pattaya)

The resort city is located in a bay on the coast of the Gulf of Thailand, less susceptible to monsoons, and therefore the tourist season does not subside here. In Thailand, Pattaya is a center of entertainment and excursion routes. Go-go bars, night discos, massage parlors and shows for adults are the first thing that attracts tourists here, but the beach season is also the longest here. Because of geographical location the best in the city dry summer, and short-term showers do not cause discomfort.

The season in Thailand in Pattaya lasts from November to mid-August. In summer it is relatively dry and still warm, making the resort suitable for traveling to Thailand from June to August.

Are you several people? Take a cheap transfer to Pattaya from Bangkok airport

Interestingly, there are times in Pattaya when everyone is cold - really cold! A couple of years ago the temperature in January (it seemed like the sunshine) dropped to +15°C! By the way, about the unpredictability of the weather :)

  • 10-day trips to Pattaya for two people cost from 70,000 rubles

Season on Koh Samui

On the islands of the Gulf of Thailand, which includes Samui (Thailand), the best season for holidays begins in January and lasts until the end of September. Since October swimming season may be considered closed due to heavy rains and storms. The amount of precipitation will noticeably begin to decrease in January, and in February Samui will turn into a flowering paradise. Spring on Samui means not only low prices, but also an abundance of exotic fruits. April is the mango season, and in May you can already try durian, mangosteen, rambutan and other exotics that are not available in our latitudes.
