Thailand - FAQs

FAQs

What is the weather like?

The dry season is November to April when the weather is dry and sunny. The rainy season is between May and October. The heavier monsoon weather is only for a short period of time however, and for most of the rainy season there are short bursts of showers and the sun comes out again. It is warm all year round and never gets cold. It's a good idea to bring a raincoat with you however, even in the dry season, isolated showers are not unheard of.

What do I need to bring?
