Crafting your travel…A Thailand group tour from India costs ₹19,500 per person for four nights in Pattaya and Bangkok at Trust and Trip, land only. Here's which one to book.
A Thailand group tour from India costs ₹19,500 per person for four nights in Pattaya and Bangkok on Trust and Trip's live prices, double sharing, land only. For a group of eight friends that comes to ₹1,56,000 before flights, GST and TCS.
That's the cheapest group-built trip we sell. It isn't the right one for every group, and its listing has three lines you should get confirmed in writing before anyone pays.
These are Trust and Trip's live prices on 29 September 2026, per person, land only. International flights aren't in any of them.
The Thailand Friends and Bachelor Getaway, four nights in Pattaya and Bangkok, is ₹19,500 on double sharing and ₹18,700 on triple sharing. It runs for groups of 4 to 15, and the listing adds 5% GST and 5% TCS on top.
The Thailand 6N/7D Bangkok Pattaya Group trip is ₹38,500 on double sharing and ₹37,500 on triple. It's three nights in each city, in four-star hotels: Ramada by Wyndham Bangkok Sukhumvit 11 and Glow Pattaya.
The Bangkok Pattaya 4N/5D Budget Family Tour, which Trust and Trip also lists as a group trip, shows ₹17,500 as its headline. Its own price breakdown says ₹22,500 on both double and triple sharing. More on that below.
On the Friends and Bachelor Getaway, eight people in four double rooms pay ₹1,56,000 for the land part of a Thailand trip. Nine people in three triple rooms pay ₹1,68,300. The 5% GST and 5% TCS on the ₹19,500 price add roughly ₹1,950 a person.
TCS isn't a cost in the way GST is. It's tax collected in advance against each traveller's PAN, and how it comes back depends on that person's own tax position. Ask your accountant, not a tour company.
On the six-night group trip, eight people on double sharing pay ₹3,08,000 for the land part. That's twice the Friends and Bachelor price for two more nights, and the difference is mostly hotels and pace.
Then add return flights for the whole group, which we haven't priced because they swing with your city and dates. Add lunches and dinners too. Neither Thailand group trip includes meals beyond breakfast and the ones named on tour days.
For a friends group, the Friends and Bachelor Getaway at ₹19,500. It's the one Thailand trip Trust and Trip sells that is built around a group rather than relabelled as one. You get a private van for the airport and the Pattaya to Bangkok drive, Coral Island by speedboat with lunch, the Alcazar show on deluxe seats, guest-list entry at a Pattaya club, a reserved rooftop bar table in Bangkok, a Thai SIM for each person, and a 2 pm checkout on the last day.
Guest-list entry means no cover charge. It doesn't mean drinks. The listing says those are on your tab, and for a group of eight in Pattaya the bar bill can outrun the package price. Budget for it separately.
Three things, because the Friends and Bachelor listing contradicts itself.
The hotels. Its inclusions say four-star, but the two hotels it names, Golden Sea Pattaya and Season Siam Hotel in Bangkok, are both listed as three-star. Ask which you're getting on your dates.
The water sports. The highlights say jet ski, banana boat and parasailing are included on the Coral Island day. The day-by-day plan calls them optional. Across eight people that gap is real money, so get the answer in writing.
The temple morning. The inclusions mention a Wat Arun photo stop, while the day plan names the Golden Buddha and the Marble Temple. A smaller point, same fix.
None of this makes it a bad trip. It means the listing was written in two passes, and Trust and Trip would rather you ask now than find out in Pattaya.
When the group isn't friends out for a long weekend. A family reunion with parents, two or three families travelling together, an office group where half the people don't drink: those groups want better rooms, fewer late nights and a day with nothing planned.
The six-night trip gives them that. Four-star hotels in both cities, a guided temple tour in Bangkok, the Floating Market, Coral Island with lunch, Nong Nooch Garden, the Alcazar show, and a free day in Pattaya before the flight home. Children under 12 are listed at ₹19,500 and children under 5 at nil, which helps on a multi-family trip. Ask what nil covers before you count on it, since it often means no extra bed.
Two cautions. Nong Nooch includes elephant shows, so ask about a swap if anyone in your group would rather not watch one. And the listing describes this trip as ideal for solo travellers and backpackers, which isn't what the itinerary is. Ask Trust and Trip whether it runs as a joining group with strangers or only as a private trip for your party.
The Bangkok Pattaya 4N/5D Budget Family Tour, at a headline ₹17,500. Its price breakdown says ₹22,500 per person on both double and triple sharing. At ₹22,500 it costs more than the Friends and Bachelor Getaway, with no private group van, no SIM and no club or rooftop evening. It does include Safari World and the Alcazar show, but its highlights also promise the Grand Palace and a Khao San Road night out, and neither appears in its day-by-day plan.
If ₹17,500 turns out to be the real figure for your dates, it's worth a second look. Get that in writing first.
All three Thailand group listings mark November to April as peak and June to September as shoulder. They disagree on May and October: the Friends and Bachelor trip calls them peak, the six-night trip calls them shoulder.
An office trip over the Diwali break or a Christmas reunion falls in peak on every group listing, so expect prices above the figures here. A bachelor trip in July or August is where the shoulder season helps. Pattaya and Bangkok don't depend on boats the way Phuket does, and the only boat day on these trips is Coral Island, off Pattaya's own coast.
Not on a group-built trip. Trust and Trip doesn't currently list a Thailand group trip in Phuket or Krabi. The Friends and Bachelor listing quotes a two-night Phuket add-on, with a Phi Phi speedboat day and the domestic flight, at about ₹12,000 to ₹15,000 per person. Treat that as an estimate and ask for the figure on your dates.
They've changed more than once in recent years, and any rule printed in an article is only as current as the day it was written. Trust and Trip checks the requirements against your dates and every passport in the group when you book. We'd rather do that than print a rule here that goes stale.
A group of two or three. The Friends and Bachelor trip needs at least four people, and below that the pricing that makes a group trip worth it doesn't apply.
A group of more than fifteen on the Friends and Bachelor trip, unless the extra van and a dedicated coordinator are agreed in writing. The listing says bigger groups get both. Confirm it.
A group that wants one hotel all week. Every Thailand group trip here splits its nights between Pattaya and Bangkok.
A mixed group where half want clubs and half want temples. Neither trip does both well. Split the evenings, or pick the trip that suits whoever will complain loudest.
Friends and bachelor groups on a four-night budget: the Thailand Friends and Bachelor Getaway at ₹19,500 per person, once the hotel category and the water sports are confirmed in writing. Families travelling together, reunions with parents and office groups: the six-night group trip at ₹38,500. Everything else is on the Thailand group trips page.
Prices here are live as of 29 September 2026 and move with season and availability. Treat them as the floor for your dates, not a quote, and ask Trust and Trip for the figure for your actual dates and headcount.
