    Your videos have helped a lot with insights into Thailand, a trip coming up soon.
    You mentioned motorbike license, if we have a regular car drivers license with international license from ZAF, does that suffice or does it have to be a specific motorbike license to ride a scooter?
    The green tub, guess something similar to Vicks vapor rub, what is the one presented in the video from Thailand called please ?

    Guys if you’re planning a trip to Thailand and are about to book a domestic flight, beware of Nok Air evening flights being delayed!!!! All of my friends who have booked flights with them have experienced hours delays so if you’re looking to book a cheap flights in the evening provide by Nok air, just prepare to spend a few hours in the airport and talk to your hotel to ensure you can check in late. No joke!

    Thank you for the amazing details. I still have some questions:
    1. Is the airlines between cities easy to book on the day of travel or better book far ahead. Is the price usually the same or higher as it gets closer?
    2. You mentioned rainy season & flood. Unfortunately, we plan our trip for September. I am nervous. Is it really bad and disasters trip😬😬
    3. Is it better roaming around with or without booked travel agents for a day trip?
    Should I arrange everything in one package or just day trip like via Viator?
    4. How is 3 days in Bangkok, 3 in Chiang Mai, 2 in Phuket (James Bond island or Koh PhiPhi?), 7 in Koh Samui to chill sounds?
    Please inform.
    Thank you,
    The trip was quoted for all that without hotels for $ 2700. (Only air, transfer & tour) per person. I think it's too much 😮

    • @RhettandClaire
      @RhettandClaire  Před 2 měsíci

      Yes. We advise first timers to go to Phuket only because of Koh Phi Phi and Maya Bay being on its doorstep. They’re the must visit locations. But we don’t recommend Phuket to anyone that is sensitive to animal welfare.

      @kevlarcardhouse252 Před 2 měsíci

      ​​@@RhettandClaireGotcha. It looks like there are also ferries to those places from Koh Lanta and Krabi so we might skip Phuket altogether and go to one of those places instead. In addition to animal abuse concerns, the Patong nightlife isn't our style either.

      @noornoornoor23 Před 2 měsíci

      ​@@kevlarcardhouse252 yes, it's not tough to go from Krabi to Phi Phi and Maya Bay. It's about 40 minutes by speedboat. Did it recently and honestly Maya Bay was good.... Phi phi too overcrowded and kind of pointless (as a day tour at least). May be better if one is staying there for few nights. As a first timer didn't go to Phuket, and didn't regret it. Got to explore some less popular places and loved it. All the best for your trip!

      I mean, if you had to quarantine and stay where you WERE, wherever did you bed down for the nights?
      Thank you for answering an unsavoury question about an unsavoury topic, however since you two are world travelers I thought it did bear mentioning only because I reckon it is hard NOT to have those critters once or twice in one's life, especially if you stay at all manner of accommodations.
      Did any reviews mention the presence of the bugs, or did you just see them (people think they are microscopic but they are quite visible!) after you had checked in?
      The best cities (Las Vegas Nevada, and Paris France have them, so you can see them anywhere, really). They are not just for hostels and more down market places.
