AGRO-TOURISM   &  RURAL VILLAGE  LIFE  TOURISM


  The Tourism Authority of Thailand has for  many years embraced the concept of  sustainable tourism that has been gaining  ground all over the world. More recently, it  has taken things a step further with the  promotion of a new related category,  agro- tourism. Agro-tourism covers a wide  range of agriculture-related activities about  which visitors learn and can try out for
 
themselves. Rice farming, flower growing, vegetable and herb cultivation and livestock farming are just a few examples. Exposure is usually gained in leisurely fashion, such as by joining picturesque canal tours or strolling through shady fruit orchards (and tasting the fruits right from the trees) and working rice farms. Also supporting the agro-tourism are all the agricultural research and study centres scattered throughout the country. Visitors are allowed to tour the centres, watch the demonstrations or take part in the hands-on activities

Opportunities to take agro-tours are offered the length and breadth of Thailand, from northern hilltribe areas to the fruit orchards of Rayong, Chanthaburi and Trat, and all they way down to sea fishing villages in the deep south.

Rural Village Life Tourism
The Rural Village Life tourism is another key concept of sustainable tourism TAT is promoting. Being developed are hands-on study themed holidays and tours such as Rice Culture , Mangrove Rehabilitation, Herbal Medicine and "Thai Buddhist Culture. Taking part in the holidays or tours, visitors would become involved in authentic, ordinary daily life and stay at village guesthouses and homestays. The inner meaning as well as the outward manifestation of the culture would be part of the total experience.

Meanwhile, the income derived from the tourism-related activities will channel directly to people in the target areas as well as help promoting good understanding between local communities and tourists in the long run.
