Backpacking Southeast Asia - Thailand travel tips

If we consider a backpack trip to Thailand? Here are some ideas for your itinerary.

One week: if you only have a week in Thailand, you must sacrifice what you see can be done. The most common way would be to spend a few days in Bangkok, check out the Grand Palace, Wat Pho, and familiarity with Thai culture. The rest of the trip could provide one of the numerous beach bars in Thailand should be spent.

Take a cheap flight toRelax or Phuket or Ko Samui on the beach for a couple of days. Ko Samui, you can spend a few days in Ko Pha Ngan, if you join the Full Moon Party (book well in advance if you try to go to Full Moon Party) it wanted. From Phuket, you can use a couple of days on the beautiful island of Ko Phi Phi to spend relaxing on the beach or snorkeling.

Two weeks: two weeks in Thailand, you will be able to the vast majority of what Thailand has to offer. Even yourWill most likely travel in Bangkok.

If you want to take to the circuit to the beach, take a bus or a flight to Phuket. Spend a day at first Phuket to Ko Phi Phi. Ko Phi Phi, a ferry to the Krabi region of spend and spend some climbing and snorkeling. From Krabi bus to Surat Thani to the ferry to Ko Samui and Ko Pha Ngan head before being completed in Bangkok for your trip.

Another option is to visit the north of Thailand, but still spendingbit 'of time on the beach. Start again in Bangkok, before the train to Chiang Mai. While in Chiang Mai, visit the local indigenous people in the mountains, going around an elephant, go bamboo rafting, take Thai cooking classes, and visit the Sunday market. From Chiang Mai you can choose to visit Ko Pha Ngan and Ko Samui or Phuket, Ko Phi Phi and Krabi. The easiest way is to take a cheap flight from Chiang Mai to Phuket or Ko Samui is.

One month: one month in Thailand visitalmost every corner of the country. Along with all the cities mentioned above, is also white sand beaches of Ko Samet and Koh Chang. To the east of Bangkok, these lenses are much quieter beach destinations in southern Thailand. Ko Chang is a good place to visit if you are underwater.

Another objective of the visit possible, Ko Tao. A short ferry ride from Koh Pha Ngan, this sleepy island also has some excellent diving, and cana relaxing respite from the madness of the Full Moon Party.
