I went thailand this month with my friends and this was my first International trip! Amazing experience! I am a vegetarian now so that caused a little issue but overall what a place, everything is just bang on 10/10

Incredible time in Thailand. I felt very safe and everyone I met was lovely. The experiences were incredible and travel was very easy. As was booking accommodation which mostly happened the day of. Very inexpensive too
Posted: June 18, 2025- The north is the cheapest in Thailand as its not as popular for tourists (still popular though) - Best spot for trinkets and gifts, much more unique compared to the rest of Thailand - Activities: Head to Chiang Rai for the day and visit all the temples/ Three Kings monument/ Wua Lai Walking Street/ Chiang Mai Cabaret (I think its like a burlesque show)/ Sticky Waterfall (Wear swimwear and bring a bag with towel/ suncream etc. Didnāt realize when climbing the waterfall youāll get soaked so have like a bag you can put your clothes in or wear something you donāt mind getting wet)/ Elephant Sanctuary (lots of ethical elephant sanctuaries you can visit now, make sure no riding!! Ideally no feeding or bathing also, always check before booking)/ Chiang Mai Boxing Stadium (600bht) (Authentic Muay Thai experience) - Unique Activities: NHD Never Hate Drawing Studio (Local Thai artist studio, the art is so sick and you can get cool postcards and stickers with his art on it)/ Khom Chocolate House (little cafe place where they sell varieties of hot chocolate, you can even order multiple as shots so you can try a few (alt milk options too))/ Museum of World insects and Natural Wonders (200bht) (lots of taxidermy insects with so much history and information on so many creatures especially mosquitoes, this place was 10/10)/ Hideland bar (rooftop bar, fab for views) - Food: AUM Vegetarian (10/10)/ Gord Chiangmai Kithcen (10/10 - must try Tom Yum Soup) (They have lots of koi fish here)/ Another World (10/10)/ Kats Kitchen (9/10)/ V.Napaphud Vegetarian Restaurant (9/10) (10/10 for creativity though, they can imitate any meat including fish and pork) - Accommodations: Pai Residence (has a pool, it was small but nice location and did the job)/ Mad Monkey (go here if you want to meet people, thereās always events on (you can also join the events if youāre not here though just come to the hostel independently)) - Lots of markets up here on every day and night
Posted: June 17, 2025thatās super touristy place, many bars and clubs. i didnāt feel safety walking alone at nights. many men trying to pick u up and meet, but at the daytime thatās okay. sea is pretty muddy, every time there are boats with parachutists who interfere with swimming and walking along the beach: they are constantly chasing ppl who passing by shore because they need to jump, and also the boat passes quite close to the shore, so swimming becomes not very comfortable. but in that place i found the cheapest hotel for 350 batt/pnight. so if u planning to travel around whole phuket u can stay, thatās convenient to go around, because location not too south and not too north. But if u prefer to stick in one place and u aināt a club person, thatās place not for u. good luck, honey
Posted: June 10, 2025It was awesome and well worth the trip. We got to snorkel all over the island and saw amazing fish at every spot. We both think itās the best island we went to in Thailand and would recommend it to anyone traveling there!
Posted: June 6, 2025I LOVED Thailand. It is a great country and I always felt very safe. The activities are great, especially in Chiang Mai! Lots of water activities,⦠The people are also amazing! Very polite, friendly and welcoming. The nature and animals are also fascinatingš¤©

I was extremely vigilant so nothing happened to me, but usually people are fine and I havenāt heard of really bad things happening to tourists. However, a random gun crime happened here around my time of travel but I think that happens anywhere in the world
Posted: May 28, 2025For me personally, as a local here I need to admit that Thailand is not the safest place, nor the most convenient place. However, due to Thai people habits weāre always helping each other and also help the tourists, so I would say that in Bagkok, Thailand is moderately safe.
