Gibraltar - not bad for a 2-day visit, you might get bored after that

For countries that Thais can go without visas, see Q: Thai citizen - what countries can visit without visa before travel or you can search the IATA database which is publicly available on a number of websites. Click here or here or here or here to go to such websites.

That's correct, although an application would still have to be made to the relevant embassy, and the OP's question asks where he can take his wife without having to get prior entry clearance.

Scouse.

She'd have to go on her own, then, unless her Brit hubby got a visa!

Anyway, Russia hardly falls within the definition of "European destinations" requested by the OP.

Last time I looked, Russia was located in Europe, at least for a large part.
