  1. Uk Visa would include Northern Ireland.
    To go to Southern Ireland she would need a Shengen Visa.

    Not correct-my Thai girlfriend visited the Irish Republic using a six month U.K. tourist visa April 2014 which I believe is an agreement between the U.K. and the Republic of Ireland.
    We flew from Bristol with Ryan Air to Dublin.On arrival you go through Immigration same as the UK-EU non EU etc.
    Irish Immigration were very friendly just asking where and how long we were staying-no problem.
    Return to Bristol was even more straightforward-check in Dublin no problem and straight through Immigration at Bristol on our return and into the car.
    I believe it's only a temporary arrangement but you can find more information on it via the internet.

  2. I don't think CharlieH is correct, unless things have changed very recently. 
     
    I asked the same question of the Irish visa people in late 2014 for a visit in 2015 and got the reply in the attachment. It's a bit long. My original question is on p.3. Bits relevant for you I've emboldened. 
     
    Basically, it says that with a UK 6-month Visit Visa, she doesn't need a separate Irish visa.
     
    If you want to confirm, e-mail "[email protected]" - they responded to my query the next day.

    This correct.I took my Thai girlfriend who was visiting me on a six month tourist visa to visit Dublin for 3 nights April 2014.
    Flew from Bristol to Dublin with Ryan Air-no problem departing Bristol or entering the Republic of Ireland.Immigration were aware of the agreement.
    On return check in Dublin no issues and on arrival at Bristol walked through Immigration and straight to the car.

  3. As previously stated Zoe Yellow attracts the younger backpacker crowd with loud music being played from various bars-I didn't find it intimidating just a little boring.As others have suggested if you're looking for a lively night out with a greater variety then I would suggest Bangkok or Pattaya.

  4. Applied for a Myanmar visa last September at the Myanmar Consulate in Chiang Mai.Warm welcome off security guy,filled out available form on a table in Consulate garden,handed in form,passport,2 photos and money and collected next day.
    It was low season so very quiet,just two other people there unlike Myanmar Embassy in BKK where it's very busy with long queues and every man and women for themselves.Yes,as previously stated Thai passport holders do not require a visa for up to 14 days.
    New Yangon airport very impressive without any hassle whatsoever.

  5. Railay is has fairly limited places to eat as there only about half a dozen tourist hotels on the west side plus a few individual restaurants on the east side which are cheaper but do offer seafood.The path which connects both sides does have a few local Thai restaurants which are more authentic.The other options would be either take the short boat ride to either Ao Nang or Krabi town.Also have a look at the restaurant reviews on Trip Advisor where you can read recent restaurant reviews.
