Frequently Asked Questions
How does a custom tour with Thailand Fantastic work?
You can draw inspiration from our sample itineraries, or we can create a trip tailored 100% to you. We will work together to define every detail according to your wishes, your specific needs, your budget and your dates.
What happens after I contact you?
One of our English-speaking consultants will contact you within 24 hours of receiving your enquiry.
- Introductory call: we will get in touch to arrange a short call. This allows us to explore your travel idea and understand the character you would like to give your adventure.
- Receiving the proposal: you will receive a detailed quotation, free of charge and with no obligation.
What does the price of the trip include?
The price of the trip includes all the services, any domestic flights and the accommodation mentioned in the programme we have proposed to you (for example: overnight stays, transport, excursions and any other experience specified).
Do I need a visa to visit Thailand?
Entry requirements for Thailand depend on your nationality, so there is no single answer that applies to every traveler. As of August 2026, citizens of more than 90 countries can enter for tourism without a visa and are granted a 60-day stay on arrival, extendable once by a further 30 days at an immigration office. Travelers from other countries must apply for a visa before they set off.
Two requirements apply to almost everyone: a passport valid for at least 6 months from the date you enter the country, and the Thailand Digital Arrival Card, which you complete through the online form before you arrive.
Important: always check the rules currently in force for your own nationality with the Thai embassy or consulate in your country before you book, as regulations can change quickly. If you are unsure, ask us and we will point you in the right direction.
When is the best time to visit Thailand?
Thailand enjoys a tropical climate, but the seasons vary from one region to another:
| Period | Climate and recommended areas |
| November - February | Cool season (high season): the best time of year. Ideal for the North and the Andaman Sea (Phuket, Krabi). |
| March - May | Hot season: high temperatures. Excellent for the Gulf islands and for diving. |
| June - October | Rainy season: short showers. The Gulf islands (Koh Samui) are often less affected. |
What happens when I book the trip?
Once the final quotation has been confirmed, the procedure is as follows:
- Deposit: you will be asked for a deposit (30% or 50%), to be paid within 5 days in order to secure the services.
- Balance: the balance must be paid no later than 40 days before departure.
- Documents: no later than 3 weeks before departure, you will receive the complete itinerary with vouchers and confirmations.
Which payment methods do you accept?
You can choose between several options:
- Bank transfer: to a European bank account (in Euros) or directly to our Thai bank account.
- PayPal: payment by PayPal is also possible.
How can I buy cancellation and/or medical and baggage insurance?
Your Travel Consultant will recommend the best insurance partners for your needs. On request, we can book the policy on your behalf, with a small handling fee for managing the paperwork.
Do you also offer international flights?
We do not have our own flight ticketing service, but we are happy to help you look for the best deals. We can handle the booking for you, with a small handling fee.
What if I can no longer travel? (trip cancellation)
Please refer to our Terms and Conditions. If you have cancellation insurance, you will be refunded by the insurance company. Without insurance, the penalties set out in the contract will apply.
What if something unexpected happens during the trip?
Your peace of mind is our priority. Should anything go wrong, we will act promptly with our local partners to rearrange your itinerary, and you will have English-speaking assistance with you throughout the trip.
