2Thailand — Wellness and tropical bliss

Thailand’s ability to reinvent itself keeps it at the top of every traveler’s list. In 2026, destinations like Chiang Mai, Koh Samui, and Phuket are leading the wellness travel boom, offering eco-retreats, yoga sanctuaries, and holistic resorts surrounded by nature.

The country’s street food remains legendary — from Bangkok’s night markets to beachside seafood stalls — while cultural landmarks like Ayutthaya and Chiang Rai add historical depth. Affordable, welcoming, and endlessly diverse, Thailand continues to embody the art of tropical living.
