Thailand is one of the top tourist destinations in Asia. The diversity of experiences and destinations you can enjoy in the country make it a favourite among travellers. One thing that Thailand is famous for, is its beaches. No wonder it is a top choice for honeymooners who want to escape to a tropical paradise.
But if you are seeking an alternative holiday, those adventure-filled getaways perhaps, then you will find numerous options, too. In fact, Thailand is brimming with opportunities if you want to partake in activities that will get your adrenaline pumping.
1. Skydiving
What better way to start off this list of adventure activities than with the king of them all–skydiving? Head to Pattaya as you will find plenty of operators that provide skydiving tours for those who dare. There is nothing that can beat the thrill of free-falling from more than 13,000 feet off the ground! If you are a true adventure-seeker, you cannot pass this opportunity. It is also a great way to indulge in the gorgeous views of Pattaya from up above. Strap on your gear and brace yourself for one thrilling ride!

2. Ziplining
From the sky, you can turn your eyes a bit downward to ziplining. This adventure-filled activity for your holiday in Thailand will take you through the canopies of a rainforest. There are many gorgeous rainforests all over Thailand, but the ones in Chiang Mai are top tourist favourites. During your zip line, you will be riding in a single-person swing that will let you soar above tops of trees. It is an exhilarating experience that allows you to enjoy the natural beauty of Thailand at the same time. Win-win!
3. Sea Kayaking
Since Thailand is known for its gorgeous beaches, you might as well take advantage of it by going on a sea kayaking adventure. There are many destinations to choose from if you want to experience kayaking in Thailand. Your options include Koh Samui, Phuket, or Krabi. Depending on the tour operator you’ve chosen, you will be taken to a multitude of kayaking locations ideal for your preferred type of adventure. They can even provide you with options depending on whether you are a beginner or an expert.
4. Snorkelling
Thailand is gifted with some of the richest marine life in the world. You can go on a snorkelling adventure to get up-close and personal with the sea creatures. You can also explore the reefs and see the beauty that is lurking underwater. Some of the best spots for snorkelling in Thailand are the Similan and Surin Marine National Islands.
5. Whitewater rafting
Whitewater rafting is a relatively new adventure activity offered to tourists in Thailand. Since it has been introduced, it has become a hit and is now one of the activities that adrenaline junkies seek out while in the country. The Phang Na province in the south has some of the most challenging rapids if you wish for an exhilarating rafting experience.
6. Jungle Trek
Last but not least, a good old jungle trek is another must-try that you need to add to your Thailand tour packages. The beautiful Thai wilderness is worth exploring if you can brave the rainforest and mountain ridges. So, hit up the unmarked trails and get your supplies ready for a long hike!
