Just booked up for a few weeks and it's my first time out there.

Anybody got any info for me on places to go, things to do?
 
Hi mate,

Going to Bankok for the first week and then to Phuket, not sure about the 3rd will have to check with me brother.
 
both are fantastic. Did new year in patong Phuket. never want to spend new year in this country again! I stay around Sukhumvit road area in Bangkok then your near the monorail which is cheap and easy to use to get around. you'll have a great time
 
Hey Bumble you on the same trip as me lol

Ive been Bangkok Chang Mai Koh Samui

You got to do the floating market and temples in bangkok
Elephant tek in chang mai
Also go to the Bridge over the river Kwai and also visit the war museum
 
I have been to Bangkok... I think the temples are worth a look but i thought the floating market was just a rip off.... i have nothing else to add as i only stayed a week and was starting to get extreamly ill around this point (ended up collapsing in Australia but that is a different story)

Hope you have a great trip :)
 
I have been quite a few times done the tourist bits and pieces, one thing to do in Bangkok in the snipe boat klone tour which goes from the Oriental Hotel. Any help I can give just shout.

What are you looking to do?

Ha probably. River kwai tour is very good and enlightening. Also whether looking for adult entertainment or not soi cowboy on Sukhumvit and patpong night market will be an experience you'll never forgot.
Word of advice don't go to bars upstairs in patong and keep an eye on the bills bar girls put in the pot as sometimes end up with more bills than drinks!!
Oh and don't play the bar girls at connect four or you'll be buying a lot of drinks!!

Totally depends on who you are going with and what you want to do....

I would say though a week in Bangkok is more than enough, i avoid it like the plague now, only ever go for business when i really need to.

If it's mischive your after then your final week has to be Pattaya. But if it's a nice quiet beach type thing there are lot better places than the usual Phuket and Samui.

Be advised it's not as cheap as you think it is, since the pound has gone down drastically to the baht....
