    Songkran 2026

    Normally, Songkran in Bangkok takes place from April 13 to 15. This year, however, it started on Saturday, April 12. Are the dates for Songkran 2026 already known? I’ve been in Bangkok several times during Songkran, and I’d like to avoid it next year. Thanks!
  3. Vs EUR, Baht is not rising any longer https://tauxde.com/eur-thb
  4. Really ? In France they are very far behind Selectour and Havas Voyages and high-spending tourists certainly don't use Carrefour Voyages
  5. I never wrote it had something to do with overstay
  6. I know that but their bureaucratic system gives just an illusion of security 555 : In the meantime many people overstay
  7. I left Thailand at the end of April and today Immigration sent me an email : Didn't their system register when I went through immigration at Suvarnabhumi Airport ?
  8. Out of curiosity, since there haven't been any direct flights to the U.S. for the past 10 years, which other airport do travelers go through?
  9. It's clearer when VAT and service are included in the price !
  10. In France, same as in Thailand; The use of a car horn is strictly regulated and is generally prohibited in built-up areas unless there is an immediate danger
  11. I now understand what you mean. I can read thai but some important information are often hidden by the stickers and are not on the stickers themselves, Nutrition Facts for example
  12. Or just ask to get hot rice when you order, this is what I do
  13. The rice is often already cold when they bring it.
  14. Dual pricing for foreigners, even in some private establishments. Loud music at all times, especially at night. Waiters who talk or play on their phones, making you wait 20 minutes before taking your order.
  15. I have a Wise card but never use it in Thailand, only for transfers : Wise card is a foreign card and many places in Thailand charge a fee up to 3% if you pay with a foreign card
  16. Check that link : Check that link :https://thaiest.com/thailand/bangkok/taxi The taxi meter price for the distance covered usually isn’t the only part of taxi fare in Bangkok. As traffic conditions in Thai capital are complicated and traffic jams here is a norm, for every minute the taxi cannot move by more than 6 km/h speed you will have to pay extra fare of 3 THB per minute (was 2 THB/minute).
  17. Were it to happen with the French embassy, I would reduce my stay in Thailand by half. I would never make an 800,000 baht deposit in any Thai bank, even if I could afford it.
  18. Good wine starts at 3-4 euro a bottle (75 cl)
  19. Still very expensive. Good french wine are much cheaper
  20. Same for me. I guess the benefit is for restaurants and shops.
  21. This not an excuse for not letting garbage, paper, can and bottles on beaches or anywhere on public space
