Welcome!

Hello!

Thank you for purchasing this eBook and welcome to your new " Travel eGuide: Bangkok & its region " which, we hope, will help you discover a part of this beautiful country, an Asian pearl with beautiful beaches, breathtaking landscapes, friendly people, delicious cuisine and wild nature. A mixture of culture, nature and history that we enjoyed and would like to share with you through an unforgettable journey :-)!

This eGuide works almost like a website, and does not need to be used along with an Internet connection (unless you want to access "OpenStreetMap" plans and other hyperlinks that we provide throughout the book, in real time).

Depending on the capabilities of your eBook reader, you can enjoy zoom features on photos. You can also click on the hypertext links (or hyperlinks) underlined throughout the eGuide. We tried our best to make your reading experience as enjoyable as possible, despite the wide technology gaps between various reading systems.

Be sure that we will propose to you more interactive versions, as the formats and eBook readers should be standardised in the future!

Well, enough chatting. Let's go!

Practical tips for Thailand

If you are an European citizen, a visa is not required if your stay is less than 30 days.

BUDGET Tips:

Plane tickets

Depending on your country of origin, tips can be different to have cheaper flight tickets.

Here are some advice which may apply, no matter where you are coming from.

Tips:

Buy your tickets in advance (minimum of 3 or even 6 months before) to get the best rates so you can choose the dates of your vacation. Look for promotions from different airlines.

Do not buy your tickets at once, but test the market first. Look for the airline companies that arrive in Bangkok - see here and for Chiang Mai here.

Buy your tickets towards one of these cities and then prepare your route or itinerary according to it.

Pay attention because the tickets prices may vary on every hour and without any logic. Consequently, record in a file on your computer the prices you have found for several days before making your decision. This way, you can compare and know immediately when you will have an opportunity not to be missed. You can save more than 300 €/ticket.

If possible, avoid traveling at holiday times (Christmas, New Year, etc.) to get the cheapest price for your airline tickets. If you however wish to go during these periods, schedule your departure a few days before those events.

Depending on your starting point, try the following airlines to have more chances to get good prices: Finnair, Qatar airways, Emirates, Lufthansa, Air France, Thai airways.

The best time to visit Thailand is from October to March, you will avoid the rainy season and the hot temperatures.

Travelling in Thailand

Tips :

Acar rental is the most suitable way of getting around and discovering Thailand.

Pay attention: it is necessary to guarantee the car rental with a credit card. Make your reservation on the Internet because the price difference is big, even doubles, if you take the vehicle at the airport without preliminary reservation.

Accommodation

You have plenty of choices in terms of accommodation. Everything depends on your budget.

Tips:

For families traveling with children the cheapest variant remains the guesthouses. There are rooms from 5 euros / night.

If you want more comfort, you need a budget of minimum 800 baht (20 euros) / night / double room. In hotels there are family rooms if you are traveling with children.

Food & Restaurants

The Thai cuisine is very varied and tasty. If you are not familiar with it, you will surely love it.

There are a few restaurant chains that are truly worth. The first one I recommend is "Hot pot that you find in shopping malls. It is a very healthy fast food restaurant: the meal takes place around the pot" - a pan with chicken broth in which you can dive at your convenience any kind of vegetable or meat, mushrooms, soy, etc. There are also delightful dim sum and excellent red pork. The duck is also delicious! Another competing channel with the same kind of food is MK restaurants.

MK restaurants

If you like coffee, you will find the famous Starbucks (not so often!), but you can try some local coffee chains. I recommend the best one that we adopted after several tries:

- Amazon café: very nicely decorated in teak wood with colorful parrots, a lovely terrace and tables with dried flowers. You can drink coffee and hot teas, cold and shakes and you often receive a free cup of tea. These cafés are next to the PTT gas stations!
