Best time for Honeymoon Tours in Thailand

It has been said that there are only three seasons in Thailand: hot season, hotter season, and hottest season, but it is just a joke as there's no distinguished weather in Thailand expect the hot weather. Normally, there are three seasons in Central & Northern Thailand: hot season, cool season, and wet season, and there are only two monsoon seasons in Southern Thailand.

If you are planning a Honeymoon tour to Thailand, you may need to know the weather details as follow:

Central & Northern Thailand (Main cities: Bangkok, Chiang Mai, Chiang Rai)

• Hot season (March-May): This is the hottest period in Thailand, but it is not a big problem for you to plan a honeymoon tour. No matter walking in the stores, sitting in the restaurant, or transportation, the air conditions are always kept on high. You won't feel too hot when you shuttle between these locations, you may even want to wear a sweater to keep you warm in the air-conditioned places. 13th April will be the traditional Thai New year (or Songkran Festival, or Water Splashing Festival), it may be a good idea to plan your honeymoon tour in April.

• Wet season (May-October): This season coincides with Thailand's off-season for tourism because of the 85% rainfall. But don't worry about the rainy days, because it is usually just a few hours of heavy downpouring and not all-day raining. For honeymoon couples who consider reducing the budget and prefer a less crowded tourism spot, you may like to visit Thailand during this season. 

• Cool season (November-February): This season coincides with Thailand's peak tourist season. The weather in central & northern Thailand will be relatively cooler than usual, especially in northern Thailand. Local Thai people always like to visit the northern part to enjoy the rare cool weather. Many tourists will also choose to visit Thailand in this season, and it will also be the most expensive period during a year. If you want a budget honeymoon tour, you may consider avoiding these four months.

Southern Thailand (Main Cities: Phuket, Krabi, Koh Samui)

The weather in Southern Thailand is hot all year round, and there are two kinds of weather only, rain or no rain.  Here we can divide the monsoons or rainy seasons into two parts Southwest and Northeast.

• Southwest (April - October): Phuket, Krabi, Koh Lanta, Khao Lak, Koh Phi Phi are the most popular destinations in this region. It will usually start raining from mid-April to October. The wettest months are May, September, and October, but the island would rarely get continuous days of heavy rainfall. Normally, if you plan a honeymoon trip to southwest Thailand, it is not a big problem traveling in monsoons season, but sometimes boat cruise may be stopped when waves are too big.

• Northeast (September - December): Koh Samui, Koh Phangan, and Koh Tao are a triad of popular islands off the coast of Surat Thani in the Gulf of Thailand. The monsoon season doesn’t hit Koh Samui until later in the year, with the rains arriving from September to December with peaks in November and trailing off during the start of the new year. But, like the Andaman Coast destinations, it remains hot and mostly humid throughout the year.
