Useful Tips

For more leisurely travels, consider spending a few extra days in Bangkok, Chiang Mai, and Krabi. Adventure seekers should try zip-lining in Chiang Mai or diving in the Similan Islands off Phuket. Add an extra day if you wish to visit the Buddhist temples in the mountains of Chiang Rai. Remove Ayutthaya from your itinerary if you prefer to spend more time sunbathing on the beaches.
