The Department of Tourism presents a new travel experience to meet the needs of Muslim travellers by launching new Thai travel routes that are truly Muslim-friendly. This project focuses on six target provinces nationwide, aiming for visitors to experience the beauty of Thailand from a different perspective. This journey brings together natural abundance, historical narratives, local culture, and community lifestyles, whilst emphasising Halal food services that help build confidence throughout the holiday.
Six Destinations for Carefree Travel
The six target provinces for tourism promotion include Chiang Mai, Kanchanaburi, Chonburi, Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya, Nakhon Si Thammarat, and Yala. Each location possesses beauty and unique characteristics ready to offer valuable experiences to travellers.

Pattaya: More Than the Sea, A Family Destination
A significant highlight of this project is Pattaya City in Chonburi province, presented under the concept of being a space of happiness for everyone in the family in accordance with the PATTAYA FAMILY WONDERVERSE campaign. Pattaya from this new perspective is not just about beaches, the sea, or the vibrant entertainment of a big city, but also offers green spaces for everyone to relax. There are arts and creative learning centres waiting to be discovered. Furthermore, there are local restaurants and friendly community members always ready to warmly welcome all tourists.
Travelling families can enjoy a wide variety of activities without concern, as Pattaya City provides services that understand the diversity of visitors in all forms. An interesting point is the provision of standardised Halal food and services that pay attention to every detail. These elements transform Pattaya into another world ready to offer invaluable experiences. It is a space that helps strengthen family relationships and proves that this tourist city has much more to discover than just the sea.
The Institute for Small and Medium Enterprises Development (ISMED), which is the source of this information, helps emphasise the potential of various areas in accommodating tourist groups with specific requirements. Elevating service standards and the adaptation of operators in the target areas will help create a lasting impression and attract this group of tourists to continuously return to Thailand in the future. Cooperation from all sectors will be the key to ensuring the tourism industry grows sustainably.
This press release is of great interest to hoteliers, restaurateurs, and tour operators looking for opportunities to expand their market and attract Muslim tourists. This information can be used as a guideline to develop services and prepare facilities to meet their needs. Moreover, it is beneficial for general travellers and event organisers seeking a new retreat or event venue that caters to everyone in the family.
