Bangkok, 7 April, 2017 – The Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) will be hosting cultural and rustic trips for delegates attending The World Travel and Tourism Global Summit 2017 and their partners. The trips will showcase some of the Unique Local Thai Experiences that can be enjoyed in and around Bangkok to industry leaders attending the summit on 26-27 April.

The Rustic Thailand and Bangkok Medley Tours will take place on 27 and 28 of April 2017 and will give world leaders in the tourism industry the chance to experience the cultural and historical attractions of Bangkok and a traditional way of life on the canals of Amphawa. This is in line with the TAT’s drive to promote local experiences and Thainess to visitors.

Mr. Yuthasak Supasorn, Governor of Tourism Authority of Thailand said, “Thailand has long been voted one of the world’s most popular destinations for tourism, so naturally we want to show off its attractions to the most influential people in the tourist industry. We will give VIPs the chance to enjoy uniquely Thai experiences such as visiting the breathtaking temples of Rattankosin via Tuk-Tuk or seeing a genuine floating market and exploring the charms of rustic Thailand – activities that showcase Thainess and a local way of life.”
