TAT Pushed the Workation Trend and Continues with the Workation Paradise Throughout Thailand

The TAT Thailand Project is encouraging working & outing from anywhere to stimulate the domestic tourism market.
The Ministry of Tourism and Sports by Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) turned a new page of tourism by presenting a new style of tourism experience that suits the new normal age through a project named “Workation Paradise Throughout Thailand”, in order to encourage working & outing from anywhere. Workation Thailand’s core message is giving a chance to agencies or organizations to change their workplaces to anywhere— working and holding a meeting in a different environment. The change will provide the accommodation sector a chance to improve their services to support tourists’ freedom working style in choosing their desired workplaces. Together, we will open to a new experience, create inspiration, and fulfill happiness by traveling.

The Workation Paradise Throughout Thailand Project builds on a workation style of tourism based on the new normal tourism. It is the answer to tourism during the covid-19 situation that encourages tourists in Thailand to go on a trip on weekdays. It helps stimulate Thailand tourism market and encourages tourism entrepreneurs to adapt and improve their businesses, especially the accommodation businesses that will step into a new dimension of service; in order to meet nowadays’ demand of working and outing at the same time. This presentation of products and services will increase the opportunity to generate income in the tourism industry and improve Thailand tourism businesses to sustainably move forward, by cooperating with allies in the tourism industry to create various packages that best suit working and outing freely. The packages are available through an online channel on the website www.tourismthailand.org/workationthailand to conveniently access the products and services.

The packages are divided into 4 types as follow:

Resort & Hotel Special Deal (weekdays accommodation and meeting place)
CSR Outing / theme traveling
Gastronomy / Luxury
Special Deal / special interest trips

Not only that, but the Workation Paradise Throughout Thailand Project also joins hands with TRUE HEALTH to provide special deals to tourists who get special deals from the website. Get a chance to see a doctor for free on the Mor Dee application.

Moreover, the project also holds “The Best Workation Place” event which invites tourists to go workation and take a picture or video and post it on social media (Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, Twitter) with #WorkationThailand and #WorkationParadise hashtags. Get a chance to win prizes worth 1,000,000 baht in total and go on a workation trip.
