Excite Holidays’ taste of Thailand

EXCITE Holidays and the Tourism Authority of Thailand recently held two exclusive agent dinner events in Sydney and Perth to celebrate their Create your Thailand campaign, which wrapped up last week.

Two groups of 25 top-selling agents cooked up a storm and were shown a variety of Thai cooking tricks, while at the same time hearing all about the incredible destination that is Thailand. In Sydney, the agents descended upon VIVE Cooking School in Rosebery and learnt how to make pandan pannacotta and authentic pad Thai from scratch, before sitting down to enjoy the meals they had created.

A few days later in Perth, the agents visited the Salt & Company Cooking School and were shown how to make a delicious banana prawn & Thai basil Penang curry with a homemade paste, as well as kai yang (lemongrass grilled chicken), a papaya salad and sweet sticky rice with mango.

Sherly Handjojo from the Tourism Authority of Thailand attended both events and made a short presentation about the exciting travel opportunities on offer in Thailand. The agents also wore custom aprons that they were able to take home with them, along with the recipes and an Excite Holidays tote bag that was filled with a few travel essentials.

The events were a big success, and Excite Holidays is thankful to the Tourism Authority of Thailand and all of the agents involved who made the night one to remember.
