Thailand Travel 10 Tips
February 8th, 2010
1. Koh Chang – Don’t stop at only Koh Chang because Koh Mak, Koh Kood and Islands surrounding Koh Chang also have more beautiful beaches and water.
2. Chiang Mai – Try to find hotels outside of the city such as on Hangdong – Samoeng and Samoeng – Sankamphaeng routes because there are better views and hotels along the mentioned route are less expensive than the hotel in the city with the same standard. The true nature of northern Thailand can also be experienced.
3. Phuket – Don’t pay too much attention to sea-view rooms because the limitation in space. The sea could not be seen directly from rooms in most hotels. The tourist should pay more attention to the standard of the hotel and the distance from the beach.
4. Koh Samui – If you have limited fund, the best way to travel to Koh Samui is by speed boat from Lomprayah Catamaran Company. Lomprayah offers less expensive service than taxi for hire and service provided by the hotel directly. Nevertheless, if you have no problem with fund, you should hire a taxi because this would create job for the locals.
5. Andaman Sea – Trang Sea is as beautiful and interesting as nearby provinces such as Krabi. The prominent tourist spots in Andaman Sea are Koh Libong, Koh Hai, etc.
6. Krabi – Although Railay beach in on the mainland, you still have to travel by boat from Ao Nang beach because it is surrounded by mountain and cannot get to by land transportation.
7. Pattaya – North Pattaya beach and Central Pattaya beach have many facilities but the true nature can be found at Koh Lan, which is 7.5 kilometer from Pattaya. You can get there in 45 minutes by regular boat and 15 minutes by speedboat.
8. Hua Hin – Hua Hin is a popular beach that is close to Bangkok but that does not mean that it is the most beautiful. Not far from Hua Hin, Pranburi beach is much quieter and more suitable for relaxation but the transportation may not be as convenience as at Hua Hin.
9. Koh Samet – You should contact travel agency or the hotel in order to find out which pier to get on the boat. Some hotels provide their own service. Don’t trust strangers because you might end up higher price.
10. Bangkok – Jatujak market has products from all over the country e.g. cloths, decoration, house hold items, souvenir, food, pet, etc.

Is it as cheap to travel in Mexico as it is in Thailand? Where are other budget destinations?
Love travelling to Thailand, i’ve been there 4 times (relatively cheap to get to as I live in Australia), also travelled to Vietnam, and Bali (although wasn’t so keen on the last one).
Think India may be on the list, where else has similar cheap accom and day to day living expenses? Any travel tips or stories would be appreciated,
Cheers!

of course in mexico a flight front in back is about $100 the very expensive also but traveling to the south of mexico may creat a big risk of you catching swine flu so you might want to think about that
i went to cancun with mymother it cost us $250 first class but we did order the tickets about 4 weeeks early if you are plannning to travel in mexico you should be able to make a eassy and fast trip with less money glald to help (:

Ahay!!!, if we speak about budget for vacation. It makes us shaking our head if we don’t have preparation about it. I like to ask you, do you interesting to take vacation with same price at every year? You don’t need worry about high-season price or maybe uncertainty world financial condition at future. And speaking about India, do you interesting to visit Goa? Well, I’m suggesting you to dropping by at http://www.goqviclub.com to get more details.

If your really looking for budget destinations you might want to consider joining a discount travel club. I use Primo Vacations and I get to travel all over the world and with my pass I can stay at Condos worldwide for prices like $100 for an entire weeks stay. We have discounts on Airfare and cars too. Why stay in a hotel when you can get a Condo for less then rent?
