Licence & insurance
The paperwork that separates an operator from a reseller. All of it verifiable, none of it hidden behind a badge graphic.
Tourism Authority of Thailand
TAT Licence No. 11/09876, held by Travel Thailand Tour Co., Ltd. It is a licence to operate tours, not a certificate of quality — but without it a company is trading illegally, and a surprising number of sites selling Thailand tours do not have one. You can check ours on tourismthailand.org under the tour agent directory.
Insurance
Every vehicle we operate carries compulsory Thai passenger insurance plus commercial cover we buy ourselves — the legal minimum in Thailand is low, and we do not rely on it. Guides carry public liability. Activities with a higher risk profile (boat days, trekking) are covered by the operator running them, and we ask for their certificate annually.
This is not your travel insurance. You still need your own policy covering medical treatment, repatriation and cancellation — it is compulsory for every guest, and we ask for the policy number before departure.
Memberships
ATTA (Association of Thai Travel Agents) since 2011. IATA accredited for airline ticketing, which is why we can issue domestic flights directly rather than sending you to a booking site.
What a licence actually guarantees
That the company exists, is registered in Thailand, has met the capital requirement, and can be complained about to a regulator. That is worth more than it sounds when something goes wrong.
How do I verify the licence?
Search the tour agent directory on tourismthailand.org for Travel Thailand Tour, or ask us for a photo of the certificate — we will send it.
Are your drivers licensed?
Yes, with public transport licences and annual medical checks. They are employees, not contractors.
What happens if a supplier is uninsured?
We do not use them. It is the first thing we check when adding a boat or a trekking operator.
Tell us the trip you have in mind.
Dates, people and the one thing that must happen — we come back with a route and a real cost.
