Passed through chanthaburi again last weekend (been in soi dao then koh chang) on the way home to bkk and enjoyed revisiting the cathedral and strolling and eating in the old street just over the river, very charming. I've yet to meet any thai or farlang whose ever bothered to visit. We will be back for a proper visit soon. Lovely province.

Ps. Soi dao was a nice place to stay.

Been coming to en-Chanthaburi for many years now, it's a great province.

just took a place for the month in town, will hang around to get a feel for life here and do day trips N,S,E,W to explore, but stay within the province.

Great day today to kick off.

I tend to the value places as well, I need some comfortable space and that's it, not frills and lobby's etc.

here for a month in Chanthaburi town and paying $435, all inclusive, for a place, mind you right on the river (almost literally) with a walk to everything.

$35 for a month is really value, if it works for him that's perfect, must not be in the town or on a beach?

Ive never seen a travel office at all in the city. But maybe you can change money at any of the banks at Robinsons. 

 

If you're after a good dentist you can consider Dr. Air Dental who is located close to Chanthaburi. She did 2 veneers for me and I was really happy with the results. A beautiful job indeed. Highly recommend her.

Just love it down your way  , annual visits for many years now , Wiman beach , the town itself then a quick trip down to Trat and the  always empty Ban Chuen beach . ....
