I must appreciate the pain taken by Mr. Dhairya (TravelTriangle) & Ms. Deepika (TripDost) and her entire team to make our trip the most memorable one. We also are thankful to Ms. Penny and Ms. Kitty from Journeys Exotica Thailand who in coordination with Deepika ensured we get the best. All the tours and travel arrangements were well planned. Hotels were good, breakfast were ultimate (We prefered American Breakfast and not the Indian one) and valuables like cash & passport and all could be kept safely at the hotel.
Special Appreciation to Deepika for all the help and expertise she rendered in designing our package. 100/100 to the entire team to make this trip very comfortable, safe and memorable one for us.
Must Try:
1) Pattaya : Underwater World, Coral Island, Snorkeling, Parasailing, Noongnooch Village (we couldnt get time for this but wanted to go.
2) Bangkok: River Cruise, Safari & Marine World(Dolhin Show, STUNT MAN Show, Orangutan Show), Shopping for girls at Platinum Mall & for Techno geek guys at Pantip Plaza. Pantip Plaza is a electronic market, you name the item and shall get there, so keep some extra money and your time for the two markets, which ever interests you.
Some Advice:
1) Language: People in Thailand don't know even basic english, so ensure you keep your patience high while waiting to get your queries sorted.
2) Pattaya : Snorkeling ( they will ask you to take package for underwater photography giving you 36 photos and 2 min underwater photo, Please do this at your risk, we did but we came back home and found a blank cd)
3) Indian Restaurants : They are not as cheap as it seems, meanwhile there are ample McDonalds, KFC, Burger King and many chain restaurants if you need to save on your pocket.
4) Tuk-Tuk's : In case you need a auto to go to nearby place and all please enquire to ur hotel reception how far is the place and estimated cost and then you can very easily bargin with the tuk tuk wala and have a tension free journey.
5) Cash: In case you run out of money then just use ATM's there and withdraw cash (enter your desired amount in Bahts).. If you have HDFC/ICICI atm card then life is too easy.
6) Travel: You can save a lot on travel. Simple Mantra is if you flying from Jaipur/Lucknow/Varanasi then book in Thai Smile Air than in Thai Air.. Thai Smile Air operates in the the same name with less of cost with the same facilities and flight as under the brand name Thai Air. I saved almost 15k totally with this trick..
Rest, enjoy every moment there as its a once in a life time experience..
