Top Corporate Retreat Activities in Bangkok

Some Retreat Activities to Consider in Bangkok

From a delicious food tour to a sunset cruise on the river, a visit to an elephant sanctuary, or a vibrant full moon party - there is no end to the corporate retreat activities in Bangkok!

Full Moon Party

Synonymous with Thailand, the Full Moon Party has become world-renowned, making it the perfect theme for your retreat's final bash. As the sun sets the party starts! A night filled with music, neon paints, dancing, fire shows, jugglers, dragon tattoos and food. The Full Moon Party is not only a fun evening but also an opportunity for everyone to unleash their creativity. Host your party beachside or on one of the city’s many awe-inspiring rooftops. Perfect for large groups, a Full Moon Party is a great corporate retreat activity in Bangkok! 

Market Tour & Cooking Class

Adored around the world, Thai cuisine expresses fundamental aspects of Thai culture: it is generous, warm, refreshing and relaxed. Roll up your sleeves and try your own hand at cooking traditional Thai favorites like green chicken curry, mango sticky rice, fried noodles, and roti. After a market tour to pick up all the necessary ingredients, a Chef will lead the group through all the ins and outs of Thai cooking. Add a little spice to your company retreat in Bangkok, and turn your cooking class into a competition! 

River Cruise

There is no better way to see Thailand than by boat! Hop aboard the Saffron cruise, a luxury culinary experience that gives you a real taste of Bangkok (pun intended!). Head upstairs to the deck & bar for some sunset cocktails, and then enjoy a 5-course dinner prepared by renowned chefs. Watch as the bright lights come out and the sun slips behind the horizon. Better yet - get dropped off at any of the riverside nightclubs and dance the night away!

Top Tips for a Company Retreat in Bangkok

Expert Advice for a Retreat in Bangkok

  1. Book Accommodations Early: Bangkok is a bustling city, and popular hotels and conference venues can fill up quickly, especially during peak seasons. Reserve rooms and meeting spaces well in advance to secure the best options for your group.
  2. Consider Transportation Options: Bangkok’s traffic can be unpredictable, so plan for efficient group transportation. Private transportation is the best way 
  3. Incorporate Local Culture into the Itinerary: Balance business with cultural experiences by organizing visits to landmarks like the Grand Palace or a Thai cooking class. These activities not only showcase Bangkok’s rich history but also serve as excellent team-building opportunities.
  4. Respect Local Etiquette: Familiarize your team with Thai customs, such as removing shoes before entering temples, dressing modestly in religious areas, and practicing the traditional “wai” greeting. These small gestures will enhance your group’s experience and show respect for local culture.
  5. Schedule Time for Relaxation: After a day of meetings or workshops, plan downtime for your team to unwind. Bangkok offers plenty of options, from rooftop pools and spas to quiet riverside retreats, where team members can relax and recharge.

Any Other Considerations for an Offsite in Bangkok

While tourism is growing in the area, there are a few precautions to take when hosting a company retreat in Bangkok. For one, the city is highly populated. To avoid falling for any tourist traps or scams, or getting lost amongst the crowds, organize private transportation and remain connected via local/e-SIMS. While Thailand is known for its street food, food safety, and handling differ greatly from other countries around the world. Stick to busy stalls with high turnover to avoid foodborne illness - it’s advisable to consume bottled water as well.
