Português (PT)Where to go in 10月
東アジアで最も安定した気候の時期であり、紅葉が南下し始める月です。
10月は東アジアをよく知る人がその年で最も良い月と呼ぶ時期です。台風シーズンは終わり、空気は乾燥して安定し、北部では紅葉が始まります。ヨーロッパでは料金がかなり下がっている一方、街歩きにはまだ十分な日照があります。東南アジアは雨季の終わりにあたり、料金はまだ安く、場所によっては天候も再び良くなり始めています。

Thai holidays in October and what they do to fares
October is the second big Thai travel month, because schools break for their mid-year holiday. In 2027 the Bank of Thailand list has King Bhumibol the Great Memorial Day on Wednesday 13 October and a substitute for King Chulalongkorn the Great Memorial Day on Monday 25 October, giving Saturday 23 to Monday 25 October off.
Japan and Korea are the top October choice for Thai families, and both are in autumn colour season. China's National Day holiday in the first week of October fills Chinese trains and Hong Kong, so treat 1 to 7 October as peak for any trip to China.
Visa notes for Thai passport holders in October
These are the entry rules for the places this page recommends. Rules change, so confirm on the official page before you pay for flights.
- Japan: Thai ordinary passports are visa-exempt for short stays of up to 15 days; a longer trip needs a visa from the Embassy of Japan. Immigration rules: https://www.moj.go.jp/isa/index.html
- South Korea: short visits are visa-free, but Thai passport holders must hold an approved K-ETA before boarding unless an exemption is announced. Apply only on the official site: https://www.k-eta.go.kr
- China: Thailand and China have exempted each other's ordinary passport holders from visas since March 2024, for stays of up to 30 days per entry. Confirm the current terms with the Chinese embassy in Bangkok: https://th.china-embassy.gov.cn
- Australia: Thai passport holders need a Visitor visa (subclass 600) before travel. https://immi.homeaffairs.gov.au/visas/getting-a-visa/visa-listing/visitor-600
- Anywhere else on this page: check the country's embassy in Bangkok or its official e-visa portal, starting from the Thai Department of Consular Affairs. https://consular.mfa.go.th

When to book for October
- Thai school-break trips to Japan and Korea are commonly booked three to five months ahead; the 23 to 25 October weekend and the Friday before it sell first.
- Autumn colour moves south through Japan and Korea, so a late-October trip can target Kyoto and Seoul's hills at their start rather than the busier mid-November peak.
- Avoid China and Hong Kong in the first week of October unless you want the holiday atmosphere.
- Buy and install the eSIM at home in the days before departure; most plans in our catalogue only start counting days on first connection at the destination, which the plan page states.
Data needs in October
Family trips change the maths: one parent sharing a hotspot with children's tablets uses more than each person on their own plan would expect. Either buy a plan that allows hotspot with room to spare, or give each phone its own smaller plan. For a ten-day Japan or Korea family trip, compare a 2 GB daily plan on one phone against separate plans on the plan pages. A photo-heavy autumn trip usually needs a size up.
Where to go in 10月
10月に紅葉が見られるのはどこですか？+
日本の北部や韓国から始まり、月を追うごとに南下していきます。南部の主要都市では、通常11月頃にピークを迎えます。
ヨーロッパはまだ歩いて楽しめますか?+
はい、特に南部は暖かく乾燥した気候が続くのでおすすめです。北部では日照時間が急速に短くなるため、屋外の予定は午前中から午後の早い時間帯までに組んでください。
写真撮影メインの旅行にはどのくらいのデータが必要ですか?+
日中にアップロードするかどうかによって変わります。毎日フル解像度の画像を送る場合は、通常の旅行より一段階上の容量を選ぶか、事前にデータ使用量シミュレーターで計算しておきましょう。
Which October 2027 days are Thai holidays?+
Wednesday 13 October (King Bhumibol the Great Memorial Day) and Monday 25 October (substitute for King Chulalongkorn the Great Memorial Day on Saturday 23 October), on the Bank of Thailand list.
Is a China trip in October visa-free for Thais?+
Under the Thailand and China mutual exemption in force since March 2024, ordinary passport holders can stay up to 30 days per entry. Confirm with the Chinese embassy in Bangkok before going.
Does mobile data work on Nepal treks?+
On popular routes there is signal in many villages, but it drops between them and at high camps. Download maps before leaving Kathmandu or Pokhara.
Is Australia a good October trip for Thais?+
Weather-wise yes, as spring covers most of the country. Thai passport holders need a Visitor visa (subclass 600), so apply well before the school break.
