JDW3 Posted Friday at 11:22 PM Share Posted Friday at 11:22 PM 3 weeks. It needs to lose some of the sheen for you. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skeptic7 Posted Friday at 11:45 PM Share Posted Friday at 11:45 PM 2 weeks minimum. It's low season now, which helps...but hardly ever seems it in BKK & Pattaya. GOOGLE some of the quiet "kohs" (islands). Chiang Mai is always excellent. Chiang Rai, Mae Hongson. Avoid Phuket...at least Patong Beach. Krabi is a possibility. Kanchanaburi also...depending on the topography you prefer. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Denim Posted Saturday at 12:17 AM Share Posted Saturday at 12:17 AM 30 days visa exempt. For a beach try somewhere around Rayong. Plenty to choose from. Quiet peaceful town Kampeng Phet. Lots of historical ruins and walks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Presnock Posted Saturday at 12:39 AM Share Posted Saturday at 12:39 AM Need more info on your likes/dislikes as Thailand has a multitude of various types of environment. Mountains, waterfalls, beaches, islands clear/unclear water, accessability (some motorbike only in remote areas), Bangkok night life or Pattaya bars, Bangkok shopping, tours of temples...etc advise, then we can tailor a trip (length) and various acty you seem to enjoy.

MrJ2U Posted Saturday at 04:28 AM Share Posted Saturday at 04:28 AM Somewhere quiet? You'll end bored as hell. First time, a month. Bangkok (3 days),Pattaya(21 days), and a short visit to Koh Chang(5 days). Despite what some may say,Pattaya is a blast and I know many people who have dreaded leaving, only to extend there stay. Bring plenty of money, Thailand isn't cheap! At least 100.00 US daily not including hotel if you want to enjoy your holiday. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bring plenty of money, Thailand isn't cheap! At least 100.00 US daily not including hotel if you want to enjoy your holiday. For a little respite from the constant noise, heavy traffic in Pattaya, try Jomtien Beach area. Touristy but without the constant noise/traffic issues as Pattaya. For an even more casual time go to Bang Saray, a little further down the coast but far less traffic/noise. If you want relaxing definitely avoid Bangkok, Pattaya and Phuket. In the north, Mae Hong Son, Phai (Pai maybe), add a few touristy sightseeing places and you have Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai. As said earlier, Thailand is not as cheap as it once was especially if your food choices are primarily western style. Thai foods are less expensive and tasty although some may be a little spicy for your taste. Koh Chang was mentioned, a pretty popular place with the Russians at this time. Koh Larn off of Pattaya area busy, nice beaches. Kao Lak might also be a good choice. And, to give a little leeway to get more familiar with Thailand and what it has to offer (there's a lot), 30 days and possibly a 30 day extension could make a nice trip funds permitting. If you go to Jomtien, check out the restaurant on beach road next to the 7/11 at the corner of Soi 9 on beach road. Everyone goes there as a customer and leaves as a friend.

Seppius Posted Saturday at 06:31 AM Share Posted Saturday at 06:31 AM Jomtien Beach is well worth avoiding at the moment, they are digging beach road up, dust and noise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anywhere in TH, 5 minutes away from the last 7-11, or right behind it Some folks really do need to leave the bar stool. Not directed at ravip, but to whom ever who think BKK, Patts, HH & CM metro is TH. Winding up a loop around the North, short, but very nice; landscapes & coffee shops Straight up R&R from that stressful retirement Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geisha Posted Saturday at 06:33 PM Share Posted Saturday at 06:33 PM If you have time I’d say 3 weeks. Ordinarily, tourists spend 2 weeks. When my niece came, met her in Bangkok and took her around the usual, Grand Palace, wat Arun, wat Pho. River trip to Ayuthaya for a day. Then flew to Chiang Mai, more temples , the White temple and Doi Inthanon. 2 days in Sukhothai which was the most appreciated. Flew to Phuket . Then went to Krabi and Railay beach. Then to Koh Chang for the best swimming, islands snorkeling , great seafood on the beach, lots of long nature walks.and National park. She loved it there. I’ve spent a lot of time there, love it. And no crowds no big hotels and chill. We went direct from there to the airport by local taxi. Great service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
