One of the great things about Thailand for the traveller is the variety of places to visit. From the urban chaos of Bangkok, to the beautiful mountains of the north, to the amazing beaches and islands of the coast Thailand offers the visitor a wide range of alternatives when choosing a vacation.

Most visitors arrive first in Bangkok. Despite the heat, traffic, pollution and crowds Bangkok has a lot to offer in the way of tourist attractions. The old town around the Royal Palace is the cultural heart of Thailand and is full of temples markets and traditional shop house architecture. The centre of Bangkok with its towering skyscrapers, gleaming department stores and luxury hotels is not only the business district but also the main entertainment area. Bangkok is a truly cosmopolitan city fueled by an unparalleled energy.

The north of Thailand is very different. Ancient and beautiful towns dotted with the golden roofs of ancient temples lie in the valleys and plains flanked by tree lined mountains populated, not only by northern Thais, but also by ethnic minorities with their own languages, dress and traditions. Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai are the two most visited towns and both serve as a good base to explore this beautiful and remote part of Asia.

At the other end of the country along the miles and miles of coastline you can find some of the best beaches in the world. There are choices for all tastes and budgets. Phuket is sophisticated and developed with not only great beaches but also a plethora of opportunities for sailing, diving, golf and fishing. Whether you want peace and quiet or music and action, in Phuket it’s always only a short distance away. Nearby Krabi is perfect for a family holiday with beautiful white sand and dramatic limestone scenery.

In the Gulf of Thailand Koh Samui provides a world class alternative with a wider range of cheaper accommodation. Nearby Koh Phangan is still comparatively basic and budget travelers enjoy the peace and quiet of what, at times, resembles paradise. Further away, near Cambodia, Koh Chang is also very quiet. If you want a beach resort with attitude, then head to Pattaya. Some love it, some hate it but it is never short of energy.

Throughout Thailand one is never far away from history and its legacy. The ancient capitals of Sukothai and Ayuthaya are both remnants of a glorious past. Through Isaan there are hundreds of examples of the power of the Khmer empire of Angkor. Both Phanam Rung in Buriram and Phimai in Korat are as good examples of Angkorian architecture as one can find.

West of Bangkok is Kanchanaburi and the famous, if tragic, Bridge over the River Kwai. Built by slave labour and allied prisoners during the Japanese occupation of World War II, it is a somber reminder of recent history and the suffering of war. Around Kanchanaburi there is also beautiful mountain countryside and waterfalls.

Whether you are a history enthusiast, a water baby, a party animal or just in need of peace and quiet the odds are in your favour that somewhere in Thailand you can find what you want.

A tour of the city of Cape Town in South Africa will never be really complete if you fail to have a winelands tour the city is quite famous for. Traveling in Africa will truly be an unforgettable experience, particularly its city that has become the most popular spot for tourists, the Cape Town.

Cape Town is a favorite choice of many tourists for a lot of reason one of them being the Cape wine route these tourists would love to take to be able to enjoy the magical viticulture art the city boasts of. There are a lot of breathtaking wine estates in the city that you will really have a hard time choosing. Each one has its own qualities that tourists will surely love and come back for. You will not only learn about different ad new varieties of grapes but you will also get to see how a brandy is made.

A bland and not so attractive signpost will be your frontline to these winelands. What is beyond these signs however will have you realize that the only thing ugly about them is the signpost itself. What you will be seeing next are the usual great looking gateways filled with glorious looking roses and Canna Lilies. These stretches of beds of flowers are usually in different vivid colors that will surely please you. You have mountains soaring high and mighty as backdrop for these flower beds.

You will find that the estate houses in these wineyards are still the traditional H-shaped Cape Dutch style homes. Some are already turned into museums for the tourists to appreciate. There are many of these winelands in Cape Town and one of the most popular is the UitKyk (pronounced as “Eight Cake”). You will find it in one of Stellenbosch’s main roads. Its manor house alone is already worth your visit but it will serve you good to prepare for a picnic under the tree in this handsome place. You will be able to enjoy its view while you get a free taste of the wine they produce. This is a very popular spot because it is not as populated by tourists as the other vineyards. With the others, you are most likely to be visiting with a busload of other tourists, making the trip less peaceful.

There are many other winelands worth your visit such as Boschendal in Franschhoek, Vergelegan in Somerset West and Cape Town’s Groote Constantia. These are the biggest and most popular wine routes in this area. For the modern ones, you may prefer to visit Eikendal which is located just outside Somerset West. There is also Dornier Wines also in Somerset West. For a mix of both the old and the new, there is Spier located in Stellenbosch. These are just few of what Cape Town can offer in terms of wineyards. To make sure you get to visit all that is worth visiting, you may opt to get the services of a Cape Town travel consultant. They will be the one to make sure that you will leave no stone unturned during your visit.
