17 Sep 2011  three trips to Thailand. Amazing Place
0.0 of 5 stars based on 0 votes

Lots of Tips: Where to go, what to pack, what to do.

  • 1. Khao San Road

    Link to a nice article about your first few days in Thailand

  • 2. Buddy Lodge Hotel
    Buddy Lodge Hotel, Bangkok, Thailand
    CHECK RATES! ABS:HotelCheckRates-d448309?&src=GoListDetail&fromServlet=GoListDetail&Action=QC_Button
    Avg price: $63

    Nice, but very costly for what it is. I suggest D&D INN. Less expensive, less noise.

  • 3. D&D Inn
    D&D Inn, Bangkok, Thailand

    Avg price: $17

    Great place to stay. Less noise and less expensive than Buddy Lodge.

  • 4. Chatuchak Market
    Chatuchak Market, Bangkok, Thailand

  • 5. Grand Palace
    The Grand Palace, Bangkok, Thailand

  • 6. Dusit Zoo
    Dusit Zoo, Bangkok, Thailand

    Go here in BKK. It was fun and we saw things that I have never seen before. We could touch almost any animal and they didn't even have big cages, like here. I don't like zoos anywhere else. The animals were so happy too. I have never seen as much action at a zoo. (not just standing behind a big cage)

  • 7. Temple of the Reclining Buddha (Wat Pho)
    Temple of the Reclining Buddha (Wat Pho), Bangkok, Thailand

  • 8. River Kwai
    River Kwai, Kanchanaburi, Kanchanaburi Province

    Museum attached to this is rather cheesy, but the river and bridge is worth a visit. When we booked a trip from BKK, we chose to go to the floating market too. This was a nice one and we liked it much more than the one in BKK.

  • 9. Bed Supperclub
    Bed Supperclub, Bangkok, Thailand

    This was nice and very expensive. There are a few others around the world as well. We liked it, the atmosphere and drinks were great, but overpriced.

  • 10. Phuket
    Phuket, Thailand

  • 11. Baan Laimai Beach Resort
    Baan Laimai Beach Resort, Patong, Phuket
    CHECK RATES! ABS:HotelCheckRates-d557954?&src=GoListDetail&fromServlet=GoListDetail&Action=QC_Button
    Avg price: $92

    We loved this hotel and it is right in the middle of the action in Patong. It is a little loud at time because the hotel has live music at night for their guests. Just make sure you get a room that doesn't face the courtyard. If you want a more relaxing experience, just go to another beach in Phuket. There are so many great options here.

  • 12. Dusit Thani Laguna Phuket
    Dusit Thani Laguna Phuket, Thalang, Phuket
    CHECK RATES! ABS:HotelCheckRates-d301365?&src=GoListDetail&fromServlet=GoListDetail&Action=QC_Button
    Avg price: $150

    This is where we went to a wedding. Very expensive. $300US a night. It was beyond beautiful, but I would just visit or stay one night. We just went to the wedding there

  • 13. James Bond Island
    James Bond Island, Phuket, Thailand

    Take a tour from Phuket that goes to James Bond Island, Monkey Beach and that you Kayak through the caverns where you have to duck down to get it and it is beautiful inside. This is hands-down the best tour that we ever took in Thailand!

  • 14. PP Viewpoint

    You must go. About a 20 minute walk up stairs. Well worth seeing the sunset here!

  • 15. P.P. Palmtree Resort
    P. P. Palm Tree Resort, Krabi Town, Krabi Province
    CHECK RATES! ABS:HotelCheckRates-d1132584?&src=GoListDetail&fromServlet=GoListDetail&Action=QC_Button

    Hands down the best place to stay in Phi Phi. Pay the extra for a room that walks into the pool. We loved it. It was a bit expensive, but well worth the price for the room and area. It is in the middle of the island and very quiet as well. Something you can't find everywhere in Phi Phi.

  • 16. PP Casita
    PP Casita, Ko Phi Phi Don, Krabi Province
    CHECK RATES! ABS:HotelCheckRates-d645636?&src=GoListDetail&fromServlet=GoListDetail&Action=QC_Button
    Avg price: $59

    Stayed here on another trip. This way we had our own bungalow. It was very nice and a lot less expensive

  • 17. P.P. Aquanauts Scuba
    P.P. Aquanauts Scuba, Ko Phi Phi Don, Krabi Province

    This is the BEST dive shop I have ever been to. Laura and Hugo are the best! If you are going to dive on Phi Phi--GO HERE!

  • 18. Breakers

    This is a bar on the main strip in Phi Phi. Nice drink specials. Right across the way from a great bar for later night buckets and specials.

  • 19. Pirates House
    Pirates House, Ko Phi Phi Don, Krabi Province
    CHECK RATES! ABS:HotelCheckRates-d1027114?&src=GoListDetail&fromServlet=GoListDetail&Action=QC_Button
    Avg price: $47

    Someone in our wedding party stayed here on Phi Phi and loved it. Very basic, but very cheap

  • 20. Koh Samui
    Koh Samui, Surat Thani Province

    I love the art here!

  • 21. Chaweng Villa Beach Resort
    Chaweng Villa Beach Resort, Chaweng, Koh Samui
    CHECK RATES! ABS:HotelCheckRates-d505164?&src=GoListDetail&fromServlet=GoListDetail&Action=QC_Button
    Avg price: $63

    We LOVED this place in Samui. Kind of expensive, but way worth it! Would stay again and again. Have your own bungalow/villa, right off the beach, Also walk down the beach and find a place to eat right on it. So awesome.

  • 22. Big Buddha
    Big Buddha, Thailand, Asia

    It was nice, but not a big deal. I would probably skip this and just go to some palaces in BKK.
