Absolutely sending it with some Thailand Travel Advice!
Ladvice, the go to guide for “Absolutely Sending it! In Thailand.” Thailand is a massive country which has become a tourist hotspot in recent years. Largely due to its picturesc landscapes, busy cities, fun filled nightlife, and other tourist attractions. It’s a real change from your typically LADS Holiday to shagaluf. It’s an opportunity to explore, gain lifelong memories and more importantly take part in the Inaugural Koh Samui Cup!
Now for some actual Thailand Travel Advice! Now I look “Lads will be lads.” I’m sure there’ll be some of the greatest horseplay of all time over there, but you need to be safe too!
Before you Travel to Thailand, Get you medical vaccines.
Hepatitis A.
Hepatitis B.
Japanese Encephalitis.
Typhoid.
Malaria.
Rabies.
Yellow Fever (if coming from a country with the virus)
Routine Vaccinations.
Visa:
You won’t require a visa to travel if your stay is under 30 days. If its over 30 days, research it!
Safety First!
Right so Ill Save your mam the hassle of the big long lecture before you fly away! Tell her Ladvice has you covered!
Be aware of pick pockets/ scam artists!
Like all tourist hot spots, Thailand’s major cities are suspect to pick pockets and scam artists. Areas of Thailand have extreme poverty and can see drunk unexpecting travellers as easy targets.
Keep an eye on your drink and Never Leave it unattended.
Stay away from drugs. 1. You don’t know whats in them. 2. If you get caught in possession of them you can face lengthy jail sentences! You don’t want to end up on the next series of banged up abroad.
Reduce the risk of credit card fraud by using ATMs within banks and not letting your card out of your sight during transactions.
If your going to be up to horseplay of riding, make sure you wear a helmet! Johnnys got you covered.
So, let’s wrap that up and move on to some more interesting or exciting advice!
Must go Places in Thailand:
In no particular order, Bangkok, Koh Samui, Phuket, Phi Phi, Koh Tao, Chaing Mai to name a few.
Budget:
Like most foreign countries it is cheap, and you can spend little or more dependant on how luxurious you wish to travel. Accommodation and activities will be your biggest expenses. You could travel through Thailand on as little as 30 – 40€ a day. Food can be purchased very cheap, as is alcohol.
What to Pack:
All your usual holiday essentials! Lets get into a list:
Insect repellent
Sun Cream
Wet Wipes
Locks
Towels
Lip balm
Adapter plug! And an extension lead
Notebook/ journal
First aid kit
Clothes… obviously right? But its important to pack light comfortable clothing, sports clothing will be very comfortable and hopefully reduce sweat. Bring plenty of clothes and perhaps clothes you don’t mind losing. Let’s face it though you’ll probably be walking around topless all day showing of the summer body?
Things to Do:
Go Island hoping
Get a SAK YANT Tattoo? Don’t tell your mam I recommended it!
Ride in a Tuk Tuk…. It’s a type of taxi.
WATCH A MUAY THAI FIGHT
Go to a Full Moon Party
Eat the street food
Get a Thai Massage
Ride a ladyboy…. Or not.
Watch the sunset at sky bar in Bangkok
Take part in the Inaugural Koh Samui Cup at Ark Bar
Go Diving
Visit an Elephant nature park? Bit of a moral dilemma but I’ll let you decide on that one.
Visit Temples in Chiang Mai
Drink a famous bucket!
Take some absolutely fantastic Instagram photos. No brainer.
That concludes the Ladvice edition of Thailand Travel Advice.
Make sure you take plenty of pictures, and videos and make fantastic memories! When you do absolutely send it into the lads groupchats back home! One last thing…. WHAT GOES ON TOUR STAYS ON TOUR! Am I right lads? Gowan Talkcha!
