Three days in Laos, a couple of days in Cambodia, four days in Vietnam, then do a days shopping in Bangkok whilst you are waiting for the plane. - I've lived here full time for over four years, have more than seven years full time in Aisa, first came to Thailand in 92"...

Agree with that.

Dont go there. It may put you off Thailand.IMHO

Chiang Mai is great. If you want beaches. Then fly to Krabi and head to Railay Beach. Or only 3 hours from Bangkok on a Bus is Koh Samet.. AVOID SAMUI. IMHO
