With the first 2 backpacking-style trips being a massive hit with Pete, I decided to take him on his first trip to Asia, hoping he would fall in love with Thailand as much as I am… to put it bluntly, it worked! He loved it! We didn’t hire a car this time, and instead did the trip using local transport.
Our trip was as follows:
- Bangkok – 3-nights
- Erawan National Park – 1-night
- Overnight train to Surat Thani – 1-night
- Koh Phangan – 3-nights
- Railay, Krabi – 2-nights
- Nakhon Si Thammarat – 3-nights
