Why Pai Dai

One operation. Two countries.No compromises.

Most operators juggle two DMCs for Thailand and Vietnam. Pai Dai is one boutique team covering both, single contract, 24-hour proposals, direct supplier access.

01

Net-rate integrity

For the trade, every rate we quote is net and your margin is your business, we have no interest in undercutting you. For direct clients, we build the journey end to end.

02

On-the-ground teams

Thai staff in Thailand. Vietnamese staff in Vietnam. Not a coordinator with a phone, people who know the roads, the hotels, the guides.

03

Single point of contact

One agreement. One invoice. One phone number, no matter which country your group is in. We own the problem end to end.

04

Built for volume

48 group departures operated in 2025, with 100+ projected in 2026. Our systems handle scale without the scramble. The bigger your program, the better we perform.

Questions agents ask

What to know before you book a DMC

Short, practical answers for partners planning Thailand and Vietnam. Each one links to the full guide.

A DMC is the local company that designs and runs a trip on the ground; a tour operator packages and sells it, usually from the source market. You own the client and the brand, we own delivery and the supplier relationships. For a Thailand and Vietnam trip, one DMC across both countries keeps the journey under a single operator instead of handed between two.

Read the full guide

Thailand and Vietnam, with full ground operations in both. Cambodia is supported only as a cross-border extension. The two countries share no land border, so clients connect on a single short flight, roughly two hours Bangkok to Hanoi and about ninety minutes Bangkok to Ho Chi Minh City.

Read the full guide

One country runs comfortably in 5 to 7 nights, both countries in 12 to 14, and a deeper Indochina journey in 18 to 21. Below five nights, internal flights and transfers start to outweigh the experience. You set the brief and stay the client-facing brand; we map it against real transfers and flight schedules.

Read the full guide

Both countries split entry into two tracks: visa exemption for eligible nationalities, or an official e-visa for everyone else. Almost all arrivals to Thailand must complete the Thailand Digital Arrival Card beforehand. Rules and fees change, so we always confirm each traveller's nationality against the official sources before booking.

Read the full guide

Standard lead time is four or more weeks from inquiry to arrival. Peak season, December to February plus Songkran and Lunar New Year, needs eight or more weeks. Quote turnaround is 24 hours from a complete inquiry.

Bang Kachao sits across the Chao Phraya River from central Bangkok, and its raised wooden bike paths cut through dense mangrove and community gardens. It feels genuinely apart from the city, even though the ferry crossing takes only a few minutes. Locals come here on weekends to cycle and eat at the small market near Sri Nakhon Khuean Khan Park.

Srinakarin Train Night Market runs along an old railway line on the eastern edge of Bangkok. Vendors set up between the tracks, and the trains still pass through. It is a local crowd, mostly, with food stalls and second-hand shops rather than souvenirs.

Koh Kret is a small island in the Chao Phraya River north of Bangkok, known for its Mon pottery village and a leaning chedi that has settled at an angle over the centuries. The island has no cars. Ferries cross from Wat Sanam Nua, and the path circles the whole island on foot in a morning.

In Thailand and Vietnam, our group transfers run in air-conditioned vans with dedicated drivers who know the routes between cities, airports, and sites like Hoi An or Chiang Mai. The same driver stays with your group for the day. Logistics handled, so the trip stays focused on the places.

The Hai Van Pass connects Da Nang to Lang Co Bay along a stretch of coastal road that sits above the clouds most mornings. Below it, Lang Co curves into the South China Sea beside My Khe Beach, where the water runs clear and the shore stays quiet outside the city.

Hanoi's Old Quarter is best seen on foot. An afternoon walk takes you through narrow streets that have traded silk, paper, and silver for centuries, then down to Hoan Kiem Lake, where Ngoc Son Temple sits on a small island reached by a red wooden bridge. The pace is slow and the lake is quiet by late afternoon.

Tay Ninh Province, northwest of Ho Chi Minh City, is home to the Cao Dai Holy See, the main temple of a religion founded in Vietnam in 1926. Visitors are welcome to borrow the white robes kept at the entrance and wear them inside. It is a small gesture, but it changes how you move through the space.

Mai Chau Valley sits in Hoa Binh Province, a few hours southwest of Hanoi. The valley floor is flat rice farmland, edged by limestone hills, and the White Thai villages of Lac and Pom Coong still offer homestays where families cook over wood fires. It is a quiet place, best seen on foot or by bicycle.

Linh Phuoc Pagoda in Da Lat is covered almost entirely in mosaic made from broken glass and ceramic fragments. The main dragon alone stretches across the full length of the grounds. It is one of the more singular things to see in the Central Highlands.
