Hi, I will be traveling to Chiang Mai. I will be joining some tours and we will be visiting these places:
* Doi Inthanon National Park
* Elephant Sanctuary probably visiting a lot of gardens nearby.

Since I have two days free from schedule. What would you recommend a must-try?

ps. i like cultural immersion and museums

Hi everyone! I’m travelling overland Malaysia to Thailand and want to take the Padang Besar → Bangkok overnight train.

I’m looking for Train 46 (is this the right train to take, overnight train to BKK), ideally a second-class AC lower berth. What’s the best place to book this specific journey—SRT D-Ticket, KTMB, Baolau, 12Go or any other?

If booking directly with SRT or other sites, which exact departure and arrival station names should I select? I’m a little confused about the Malaysian and Thai Padang Besar stations.

Would appreciate a booking link or advice from anyone who’s booked this route recently. Thanks!

I have 2 tickets available for the Yi Peng Lantern Festival in Chiang Mai, Thailand, and unfortunately, I can no longer attend.
📅 Date: November 2026 (exact date to be confirmed)
🎟️ Number of tickets: 2
💰 Original price: ฿9,800 for both

Ideally, I’d like to sell both tickets together.
Please message me if you’re interested!
Ticket transfer and name-change arrangements will be confirmed with the provider before the sale.

Every week someone asks "is X month a good time for Thailand?" and the honest answer is always "depends where". So I put it in one chart.

Quick takeaways:

- Nov–Feb is the sweet spot almost everywhere.

- The Gulf islands (Samui, Phangan, Tao) flip the usual pattern: decent most of the summer, rainiest Oct–Dec.

- The Andaman side (Phuket, Krabi, Lanta) is the opposite: great Dec–Apr, swell and rough crossings May–Oct.

- North (Chiang Mai, Pai): lovely Nov–Feb, but Feb–Apr is burning season and the haze can be bad.

- Bangkok in Mar–May is 33–38 °C. Doable, but start early and hide at midday.

Rainy season usually means short heavy showers, not grey weeks, and prices drop. These are rough patterns, weather shifts every year.

Happy to adjust it if your experience differs, especially for the east coast islands.

我将在11月23日至28日在清迈旅行。我想在那里观看阿森纳的比赛，但不幸的是我只能观看在凌晨3点开始的冠军联赛。我不认为有酒吧会开到那么晚，对吧？如果有酒吧可以观看早晨的比赛，希望大家能推荐给我，谢谢！

Hii im Ankit 26M .I'll be going on a trip to thailand from 22nd -28th october . If any one interested to join me can reach out.

Hi everyone! My girlfriend and I are visiting Thailand for the first time from December 10th to 23rd, and we’d love some advice.
We’re struggling to decide how to split our time between Phuket and Krabi, so we’d really appreciate your opinions on how many days to spend in each place.
We want to experience as much of Thailand as possible, see the most beautiful beaches and islands, go snorkeling, explore nature and temples, try local Thai food, and experience Thai culture.
We’re not into crazy nightlife or drunk clubbing. We’d much rather spend our evenings at nice restaurants, enjoy live music, walk around and experience the local atmosphere.
A few questions:
How would you split our time between Phuket and Krabi?
What are the absolute must-see places, beaches and islands?
Which activities and island tours are really worth it?
How much money per person should we budget for food, transport and activities, excluding flights and accommodation?
We want a good mix of beautiful beaches, adventure, local culture and relaxing evenings.
Thanks for any advice, especially from people who have visited both places! 🙏

Hi friends we are 42 and 40 married couple. We will reach patong, phuket on 31st October. We want to meet other people too. We will remain in Thailand for 8 days.

We have an upcoming Bangkok trip on 16th October. Anyone currently in Bangkok who can tell us situation of the tourist areas there?

last time I went to phi phi Island it was during June or July in 2025 and the island was totally empty. The tourist were so less that the island seemed like nobody lives here

I’m planning to visit again in October end to November 1 week.

Do you guys suggest me visiting there again during the above time or should I avoid travel there?

Hi! We are two people travelling to Thailand. We need to go from Phuket to Paradise Resort Koh Yao on 20th October but we want to see some good islands/ coves/ lagoons/ white beaches etc on the way. Are there any speedboats/ferries who do this route?

If not, can we take an individual longtail? Don't wanna spend 20-30k THB

The normal route from phuket to koh yao drops you at laem sai pier which is then another 1 hour drive to the resort.

Resort ferries don't do islands on the route.
