Mamoun Hmidan, Chief Business Officer at Wego, commented: “Thailand has long been a top destination for MENA travelers, and today, it’s more than just a beach getaway. From holistic healing retreats in Chiang Mai to island-hopping in Krabi and food trails in Bangkok, Thailand is evolving into a destination that caters to explorers, families, and luxury seekers alike. Through this partnership, we aim to share untold stories of Thailand that resonate with the aspirations of today’s travelers, those looking for culture, comfort, and connection.”

Our ‘5 Must-Do Experiences’—Must Taste, Must Try, Must Buy, Must Seek, and Must See—invite travelers to explore Thailand in deeper, more meaningful ways.”
