Things most travel sites won't tell you.
On-the-ground details your designer wishes every guest knew before they landed.
Things to Look Out For
Andaman vs Gulf seasons
Thailand has two coasts on opposite monsoon clocks. The Andaman side. Phuket, Krabi, Phi Phi. Is at its best November to April; the Gulf side. Koh Samui, Koh Phangan. Runs later and takes its heaviest rain October to December. If the dates are fixed, pick the coast to match, not the other way round.
Temple dress, enforced
The Grand Palace and Wat Phra Kaew turn away anyone in shorts, short skirts, or bare shoulders, and the guards are strict about it. There's a hire counter, but the queue eats an hour. Carry a light scarf and long trousers in the day bag. Feet point away from any Buddha image when you sit.
The island-tour speedboats
Most Phi Phi and four-island trips run on shared speedboats packed to the rail. Fast, wet, and loud. If anyone in the party gets seasick or wants the bay before the fleet arrives, pay up for the private longtail or the early departure. Maya Bay closes to boats some mornings to let the reef recover; check the day before.

Plan Your Timing
When to Go
The broad window for most of Thailand is November to March. Dry, warm, and the coolest the country gets. April and May are the hot season, when Songkran's water fights break the heat in mid-April. The southwest monsoon brings the rains June to October, heaviest on the Andaman coast; the Gulf islands run a month or two behind and stay drier into the early monsoon. Bangkok and the temples are comfortable in the cool season and punishing in April.
