THE Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) has introduced “Lifestyle Thailand”, a new smart phone application aimed at attracting the young generation with eight unique tourism experiences in the kingdom.
Juthaporn Rerngronasa, TAT deputy governor for International Marketing of Europe, Africa, the Middle East and the Americas, says the application highlights 20-50 per cent discounts in 300 selected accommodation, restaurants and tourist attractions that have been carefully selected for their unique characters and qualities that suit the lifestyles and demands of the target groups.
The main target groups are international and local tourists, particularly the savvy smart phone users who can now download the Lifestyle Thailand application free of charge on the App Store or Android Market, according to Juthaporn.
The “Lifestyle Thailand” mobile application features eight travel experiences, comprising Chic, Romantic, Breezy, Thainess, Adventure, Wellness, Easy n’ Slow and Family.
The Chic option is designed for trendy generation in search for shopping experiences, nightlife activities and personalized services such as personal fashion stylists, hands-free shopping, private limousines and jets.
The Romantic selection lists perfect destinations for couples. Beach and adventure lovers can check out the Breezy and Adventure collections, respectively. The health conscious tourists can opt for the Wellness range while devotees of Thai traditions can visit the Thainess section.
The Easy n’ Slow is a perfect fit for travellers looking for a quiet place amid the lush nature of Thailand while a wide range of family-orientated activities and locations are listed generously in the Family section.
The “Lifestyle Thailand” application will be updated on a monthly basis with information of selected tourism products – accommodation, restaurants and attractions – and things to do lists, as well as hot deals and discounts.
