MEETING POINT ASIA/THAILAND Thailand is reflecting images of white sand beaches, cerulean waters, peaceful temples and lush mountain jungles. In Bangkok, a 21st-century playground, the scent of spicy street food fills the air and the Grand Palace recalls the country’s traditions. Outside the capital, the wonders of the countryside enchant, whether you are exploring Ayutthaya’s splendid ruins or diving in the waters of the idyllic southern coast. This is the “land of smiles”.

MEETING POINT
BAHRAIN Bahrain is ready for action. The storied location of the ancient Dilmun empire and home to the epicentre of the Gulf’s pearling past, Bahrain has a history to reflect on with pride. Boasting its own Formula 1 Grand Prix, a growing art and foodie scene heavily cross-pollinated by Manama’s huge expat population, and a wealth of activities enjoyed on the azure waters surrounding this collection of islands, Bahrain will appeal to travellers who seek an unpretentious, yet confident country bearing all the hallmarks of a modern, wealthy Gulf nation. This multi-layered and multicultural destination is often overlooked by tourists. Therefore, Meeting Point Bahrain was established to help develop the destination further and connect the rich heritage and the modern opulent offerings of the country, introducing all-inclusive hotel packages for the first time in the Kingdom.
