First time traveller!

I want to spend about 3 months in Thailand but have no clue where to start or where is worth going or where to avoid..



I also want to have a rough idea of how much money I will need and best times to go. Hope someone can help!



First time traveller!


Fly into Chan Mai.. it full of beautiful temples and stuff restirct yourself to a day or two although im sure you could spend the whole 2 weeks there ..... then travel down to Pattaya .. you can stay in the Royla Twin Hotel right in the middle of town for 拢14 a night .. it a NICE hotel.. big Marble lobby , Pool, All the Mod cons.. exceptional service ... then explore the sights of Pattaya Walking street is a must .. Boys town is an experiance but unless you find little Thai men attractive then i would just go the once.. LOL..



Try Scruffy%26#39;s Go Go Bar.. it%26#39;s wicked Fun... !! and Lucifers Night Club !!



stay booked in at your hotel adn Book the Floating hotel on the River Kwai from your Hotel ... they will pick you up in mini bus and take you and arrange everything for you .. all you need is money for Beer And Souvineers . you will go to the Flaoting markets ( you have to travel on a didgy little boat for about 20 mins to get there ) then you will go to to the Chancuburgh Cemetary 9 sounds boring but is eally moving ) you will get to walk over the BRIDGE OVER THE RIVER KWAI.. ( there are usually elephants at the other side )



then you will drive into the middle of the rainforest between Burma adn Thailand and most probable see monkeys at he raod side adn stuff.. Wicked ..!! then you will hick through the jungle ( not really a hick there is a path lol ) where you will check it at the reception. ( tyhere is a moassive ROPE bridge that you can wander across if you fancy it ) after checking in you will climb on board a raft and be towed to your part of the hotel .. passing waterfalls and other wonderous things on the way ..



day 2 is the death railway and Hellfire pass.. Should not be missed.. also they take you to some Quaint litle places for food . then it%26#39;s a long trip back to Pattaya ..



Spend a day at Jontiem beach.. you will love it.. it is FUN.. jet sking, Parasailing ,the LOT.. there are rows adn rows of chairs and if you sit in them people will come up adn ask you if you want a drink. anything forma Singa beer( thai beer more expensive than Chang beer but NO hangovers ) to a baby coconut witha straw .. MmMM,, you can sit and drink all day , fresh seafood adn ice creams will be offered to you by the locals selling their wares on the beach.. and you can do all your shopping from your chair they will coem to you.. you can buy food, drinks, sourineers clothes.. all sorts without ever having to get up.. AMAZING .. also foot massages.. Defo a Whorl day should be spent at Jontiem Beach..



Have a thia Phyisical Massage .. you will not regret it !! ohh and if you have time have an Oil massage aswell.. ACE!!



god there is just soooo Much.. ohhh go to a thai kick boxing match...



First time traveller!


For 3 months I would think www.lonelyplanet.com (Thorn Tree Forum) would be the best place for you to start. I also suggest you buy a Lonely Planet guide to Thailand and spend a week reading.... that will give you more of an idea of the areas you want to spend time...





thorn tree is great for budget travellers... lots of good hints for those looking to do thailand on the cheap!





Your budget could be as little as 1000 baht per day upwards... start at Thorn tree... but arm yourself with a rough idea of what YOU want to see and do first... the Lonely planet guide book is great for a start!
