watch out for scams!!!! I mean it, do not buy any Gems, watch out if the tuk tuk drive tell you to go to a shop to see if u want something. But over all get away from bangkok, too noisy and smogy.
I went to Thailand last year, and it was a blast!!!!!
You will have a wonderful time trust me on that. |
^^ agree. THe best way to travel in Bangkok in by Tuk Tuk, or if you're in a hurry, one of the motorcyle taxi's. Otherwise you might get stuck in something similar or worse than this:
I would also advise to avoid Bangkok all together, although it's great to just visit and look around. I would encourage hanging around the islands. I was in Phucket, Pataya, and Phi Phi island while I was there.

hey skipper...i was there for 2 months this winter.
first of all, expect a total travel time of about 40 hours before you set down your bags in your first bungalow in haad rin, unless your lucky enough to find a connecting flight from bangkok to samui that day, then you'll save 6 hours or so.
full moon parties occur every month and honestly arent 'all that'- all the bars facing the beach pump out thier own kind of music at distorting volumes. it would be so much better if they set up a stage at one end of the beach and a stage at another, but it isnt about the music- just about selling buckets (plastic pails with mickeys of whiskey/ vodka and redbull for 10 bucks) to the many thousands and thousands of drunk aussies. (for the most part you'll find aussies in phangan and samui as opposed to europeans). the music is shitty so please dont get your hopes up. see other parts of phangan,. haad rin is the dumpist part. when in haad rin, got o niras bakery and ask for nok (pronounced knock) and tell him big rob and sean from canada say hello and he'll take care of you- he's fucking awesome and his english is good so if you have any questions or need anything he will help you out.
phangan was my favorite of the 6 islands we visited on both sides of thailand. if you want privacy and relaxation, go north to bottle beach. also, if you get a chance stay a nite at the chalaklum bay resort in chalaklum. ask for nin. again, tell him big rob from canada sends you- he lived with us for a month when we were there- and he'll take care of you, big time.
samui is the most commercialised of the islands next to phuket, which is a shame cause it was once probably very beautiful- they say phangan is samui 30 years ago.
if you get a chance go to the anadaman side and see the isalnds of lanta and phi phi. stay a way from phuket, unless you want the hysteria of bangala road.
ko tao is a nice island but not much for beaches as most of its shoreline is rocky. its a divers haven though.
ask me specific questions and i'll do my best to answer them.
BFU
