Asia Web Direct is one of the most successful online travel service companies in South East Asia. With a network of more than 100 websites, we showcase over 1,000 hotels and resorts to well over 50,000 world-wide visitors every day.

Our own reservation systems include our WebDirectTM instant booking system, our LateStaysTM last-minute booking system, our RoomBidsTM auction system and several other travel and tour booking and planning systems.

We started life in 1993 as a computer software services company in Phuket, Thailand and rapidly embraced the Internet. We were the first local company to offer Internet connections with local email and web hosting services.

Our first web portal, phuket.com, was launched in 1995. This quickly became the most useful information web site for travelers planning their holidays in Phuket. The popularity it achieved led to other similar portals throughout Thailand and Malaysia. Our aim was to introduce world-wide visitors directly to local suppliers of travel related services via the web. We developed direct booking systems, easy contact systems and interactive forums.

Although the Internet has changed substantially since these early pioneering days, our vision remains intact. Through the years, we have evolved with the Internet and our success stems from seeing the needs of our visitors, our suppliers and the tourism industry.

Today, we have grown to a group of seven companies operating a collection of over 200 web sites showcasing holiday destinations throughout South East Asia. Our web sites offer travel information, photos, maps and recommendations plus our own instant booking service for hotels and tours. Our sites are supported with a host of travel related products designed to make buying convenient, fast, hassle-free and, of course - competitive.

We are bonded travel agents, licensed by the Tourist Authority of Thailand under License No. 31/0163.
