There are many exciting and memorable places to visit in Thailand, and it’s easier to say where not to go than where to go, as generally most places are safe, affordable and interesting.
The best time to visit is December – January, but it will be busy as it is peak season, so I recommend you book your accommodation and transport in advance.
Make sure you are covered for any activities you may be doing that require extra coverage. If you intend on riding a scooter, cover yourself with insurance. It is far too risky not to!
The best way to get around Bangkok is the super efficient, clean, and cheap SkyTrain (BTS). If that doesn’t take you where you need to go, try the subway (MRT).
Keep it safe – go to the places that are busy with the locals. You can watch the vendors cook the food in front of you anyway and eat it hot after all the bugs have been killed off.
