Thailand is a typical tourist country, with a good geographical location, dual coastlines in the Indian Ocean and the Pacific Ocean, and many tropical islands. Thailand also has a variety of distinctive and creative services, and tourism has become a highlight. Here, I will share with you the most detailed information on Thailand's free travel strategy and expenses in 217.
This strategy is mainly to save money for your babies, because I am an affordable woman, and I hope to enjoy a better holiday at the lowest price every time I travel. This time, we spent a total of 58 ~ 6 yuan per capita in 8 days, and friends said we were so cheap!
May-October is the rainy season in Bangkok every year. This time, we chose the end of May. In fact, it began to rain, but it rained a little at night in those days, and the sunshine was very good during the day. The end of May is not the peak season, so the hotel price is too good. About the visa
We are a Taobao visa, and landing visa is a little more expensive than signing in advance. It seems that we are only in 5.8 yuan if we sign in advance in Taobao, but we have to pay for the round-trip transportation by ourselves. Anyway, it is convenient and quick. Just give it your passport and two photos one inch larger, and whatever the bottom is. Just apply for a visa one month in advance. About air tickets
Everyone says that AirAsia's air tickets are cheap. We have also seen them on AirAsia. It has regular activities, but its activities are usually not available until half a year later. After checking the price, those air tickets to Bangkok and Chiang Mai are all over 3 yuan, but luggage is not included. If you want to grab cheap air tickets from AirAsia, you can book them on AirAsia's official website six months in advance.
those who want to grab a special ticket can download an e-tour, which mainly introduces which airlines have discounts, all of which are hundreds of special tickets. However, it should be noted that the time of special tickets is not determined by you, but the time period stipulated by the airlines, and most of them can only travel two months after grabbing the ticket.
If you don't go to official website to grab a special ticket, try to go to Ctrip to book it, because our flight from Phuket to Bangkok goes to Bird Airlines official website to book it. It's troublesome to book a special ticket abroad. You have to use some specific credit cards and try several credit cards before you can pay. It's really troublesome. It's better to borrow that credit card from a friend.
remember to watch carefully when booking a plane ticket. If the plane ticket includes luggage, you can go to a treasure to buy luggage, which is a universal treasure.
some foreign airline officials wrote that checkin had to take the credit card to buy air tickets, but we took it seriously, because the credit card was borrowed from a friend, but there was no need to show the credit card to buy air tickets.
if we fly directly to phuket, the price will be more expensive, but we expect to go to Bangkok, so we will fly to phuket from Bangkok, which will also save money.
this time, we can't wait to go to Thailand in half a year, so we didn't go to AirAsia to grab it. By comparison, we are interested in the round-trip ticket from Macau to Bangkok of Air Macau.
I checked that the price of starting in Guangzhou was 18, so I decided to go to Macau, and many babies went to Hong Kong to take a ride. The air ticket from Hong Kong to Bangkok was more cost-effective, but the Hong Kong airport was far away and the time was not good, so I might have to stay at the airport for one night.
compared the prices of several agents, where did you book it? It was cheaper than Air Macau official website.
Many people are worried about where the ticket will not be issued. If you book the ticket at the agent, you must do it several weeks in advance, otherwise, when you book the ticket one or two days before the temporary time, some friends can't tell the ticket, and they are desperately on the phone to negotiate with Ctrip.
When you book your ticket, you must go to Air Macau official website to check your ticket number and see if the ticket has been issued. I have been on China Eastern Airlines and China Southern Airlines before, and the plane meal is really terrible.
The flight meal on Qantas was amazing, with hot bread and butter, chicken noodles and pork rice, a bottle of water, salad and fruit after dinner. The fruit after dinner was watermelon and pineapple, and watermelon had no seeds at all.
When booking a plane ticket, you must buy a hotel _ that is, (3 yuan _ can book a hotel at a discount of 7, and each of us bought two, with a total discount of 28 * *)
In the middle of Bangkok, we took lion air and Bird Airlines to and from Phuket. I heard a lot of bad reviews from lion air before, but it was really not as good as lion air. Its location was particularly small, even more crowded than ordinary airlines. Bird Airlines at least has water to deliver. About hotels
, you must book in advance. It is cheaper to book in advance in some high-class hotels. We booked one hotel one month in advance, and it was still 4 yuan at that time.
Yes, it became more than 1, a few days before I went. It is more favorable to use those hotels, but those hotels can only be returned after checking in, and they can be returned to Ctrip account, but they can be cashed out to their bank cards.
many babies recommended some software to me about booking hotels, but compared with Ctrip, it is cost-effective and convenient. Besides, it is the most cost-effective to buy a hotel package when booking air tickets, that is, to buy air tickets and send hotel coupons.
I really recommend you to book a hotel, because hotels in Thailand are very cost-effective, and the level of 6,8 hotels there is almost the same as that of 1,5 hotels in China. It is rare to enjoy the domestic five-star standard at the price of 8. Of course, you should enjoy it. About changing Thai baht
Although Thailand stipulates that each person should bring 2, baht into the country, this is usually just a spot check in landing visa. Anyway, we didn't draw a prize. We compared the exchange of Thai baht with Bank of China and Industrial and Commercial Bank of China, and found that ICBC is more cost-effective, and the exchange rate is almost the same as real time.
you can use AliPay in boots, duty-free shops and 7-11 in Thailand, just keep AliPay in your hand.
the map must be downloaded to google, but this time, because we all took taxis, we didn't use the map much.
if the plane is too late, we must book the pick-up at a certain treasure, but we must book it two days in advance. We book the pick-up in the morning, and most of them don't take orders, but only one or two take orders.
The hotel we booked on the first night was far from the airport. Fortunately, we booked a pick-up. We were very tired. The pick-up contacts all spoke Chinese, and he would pick you up to the driver.
It's also super far to go to our Kata Hotel at Phuket Airport. It's really cost-effective and convenient to book a pick-up. As soon as you come out, someone will hold a sign to pick you up.
Our plane was delayed by an hour, but the driver was still there, so we gave more tips at that time.
If you can't fill in the entry-exit card, you'd better download a template from Baidu yourself, and the flight attendant will issue you an entry-exit card on the plane. If the template is in your mobile phone, you can fill it out from the plane or print it out yourself.
Entry is very fast. Remember to keep the exit card and stick it with your passport to avoid losing it. It is said that it is particularly troublesome when you leave. As for traffic
, you must download grabtaxi
, but it is only good to register with a Thai calling card, because the driver wants to call you, but the registered phone should not add the leading , and the leading should be removed. We have been registered for a long time before we know not to ask others.
This software is very convenient, which is equivalent to Didi in China. Moreover, it has four-person cars and seven-person vans. If you have luggage, don't choose a taxi, because you can't put any luggage in the trunk, and you can choose a private car.
There are many drivers who don't understand English, or we don't understand English. You can ask the hotel front desk to help you tell your hotel address or tell you where the driver is waiting for you. When taking a taxi, if the driver asks you if you want to get on the expressway, you must say get on the expressway.
Although you have to pay more on the highway, you really want to cry if you don't go around the highway and waste time on the road. Taxis in Thailand are very cheap, so we use this software to take taxis all the time. Phuket street is full of black car drivers. If you don't know how much to cut, check google Maps directly.
It shows how much it costs to take a taxi. You can cut it after you know the market. Don't book a car in a hotel, it will be much more expensive. There is a hotel where they call a car for us, which is 3 pigs more expensive than the software. We took the subway and sky rail in Bangkok once.
Don't take the subway if you have luggage, because it's all stairs, and there is no escalator. If you carry a suitcase up and down, you will cry. We happened to have luggage on the subway that time, and it's all stairs. We cried when we saw the stairs.
and it's not like Guangzhou, where the subway takes two lanes in the opposite direction. It has only one lane. Look at the direction, and see whether the bus goes forward or backward.
just buy a happy card from a calling card. The signal is excellent. Buy it from Taobao in advance. My friend bought it locally in Phuket, but he was cheated and couldn't use it. Later, he went to the airport to buy it formally.
Many people will choose and book a one-day trip to the island. Many people choose Similan Island, but Similan Island is only open from November to April, so we are going to Emperor Island. If we want to stay on the island for a long time or snorkel better, we should choose some boats with fewer people, such as Goddess, where there are 19 people in one boat.
We booked the Taurus with an estimated 5,6 people. Snorkeling with many people is not fun, and there is no coach. Moreover, since each person has spent a lot of time snorkeling, it takes only half an hour to get to the island, and only a few photos can be taken in half an hour ~ Besides, the second floor of the ship is not big, and two aunts quarreled over the place
At that time, we also said that if we didn't snorkel, we might as well stay in a high-class hotel
That snorkeling bite is a bit dirty, because it is not disposable. It is estimated that many tourists use it together. Those who are neat can buy a set of it themselves, or go swimming directly without snorkeling.
Except those islands in Phuket, Kata Beach is actually not bad. As for Badong Beach, it is not as good as Yangjiang Beach in Guangdong, so don't go to Badong Beach.
As for the seafood market in Ban Zan, there are obscene people soliciting seafood everywhere. At first, a man tried to pull me to buy it and wouldn't let me go. At that time, my friends were so scared that they wanted to leave immediately.
It's full of soliciting people to buy seafood, so don't go if you're all girls. Don't be afraid when bargaining. He offered 48 pigs, and I cut 2. Of course, it's more cost-effective for us to go there, including processing fees.
that person scolded me, and my sister in the same trade didn't dare to bargain when she saw that they were tall and wretched. In the end, the processing fee was included in the 25. There is a big lobster, eight lazy shrimp, squid and a green vegetable.
There are a lot of local men who look a little obscene. If only one or two girls go out, please pay attention to safety. We have a super ugly man following us near Badong Bar Street, and then my girlfriend said that the man approached me desperately, ordered my bag, and seemed to want to rob me. I immediately took a few quick steps, rushed into a Starbucks, and sat for a while before we left.
It's the same with traveling with the island. The tour guide gave me a shoulder intentionally or unintentionally, and patted my leg jokingly for no reason. Then my best friend said that I was too sexy to wear that day. I planned to take photos on the island that day. Unexpectedly, it was only half an hour. I should have worn a school uniform to avoid being accidentally pumped.
When I left, another tour guide desperately held my hand and said, Come home with me. In a joking tone, I shook his hand and immediately rushed to the car to take us back to the hotel.
Just a few little girls should be careful when they go to Thailand. Thai men are often accosted in the street, and they are not here to sell, so we are a little afraid of this. We are all a little afraid to say a few words and then walk faster.
As for food, I feel that Thai tastes are not very suitable for Cantonese people. They are sweet, but it is good for us to go to the recommended restaurant. Although 7-11 is super cheap, I am still tired of eating too much, and it seems that all the people who go to 7-11 are from China.
Also, be sure to bring a thin coat and cardigan. The air conditioners in airports and planes in Thailand are almost free, and it's super cold!
write so much first, and then add later.
Because of the large temperature difference between outdoor and indoor in Thailand, my boudoir has a fever and caught a cold, so I must bring some medicine myself. Thailand 7-11 has medicine, but I can't read the Thai language clearly and I don't know what the effect is.
I asked the staff of the convenience store to buy the antipyretic, but the packaging was so crude that I didn't dare to eat it, but my girlfriend took it and the fever went down the next day. I didn't have a good stomach when I went to Thailand this time. I suggest everyone take some stomach medicine. About shopping
Everyone in Phuket likes to go to Jiangxi to be cold. There are quite a lot of local cosmetics in Bangkok. boots is enough for buy buy to buy. If you want to buy other brands, you can go to the shopping mall. Imperial Duty Free Shop does not recommend everyone to go. This time, we went and found that all of them are from China, which was too crowded.
the first thing to do when you go to imperial duty-free shop is to open a shopping card at the front desk. If a freelancer goes to Ctrip to get a coupon, you can get a 2% discount, but there are restrictions, only duty-free products can be available, and those who need tax refund will not.
imperial duty-free shop is not very cost-effective, its products are also available at the airport, and its location is so remote that we took a taxi for more than an hour.
I suggest that you buy the goods at one time, and don't buy them separately for many times, because the tax refund is over 2, baht, and you have to charge 1 handling fees each time. I bought them separately for six times, but the handling fee was over 2, baht each time, but I paid 6 pigs. If I get a one-time tax refund, I only need to pay 1 handling fees. Most people in Bangkok recommend central
world, which is really super-large. We have been shopping for a whole day, and we can continue shopping with bigC across the street. centralworld contains Bangkok bags, a good brand with handwritten letters, which is cheap and Thai.
When you come to centralworld, you must go to the middle of zem, which is like a four-or five-story underwear store. When you come to Thailand, you must buy a Huage. Previously, it was quite expensive in other shopping malls. Only the Huage here and the Huage in big
C are the cheapest. The Huage here is about RMB 15, and you can get a 2% discount when you buy 5, baht. Finally, it becomes 12, and the quality is super good.
Thailand's local cosmetics are also super cheap. In addition, Revlon and L 'Oré al are also cheap. L 'Oré al usually sells 18 lipsticks in China for more than 7. Revlon lipstick is 46 RMB when folded, but it is not easy to use this brand of lipstick.
I don't need to say what to bring when traveling, such as toiletries, slippers and clothes. Sunscreen umbrella is necessary, the sun in Thailand is so poisonous.
I applied sunscreen to my face. This time, I basically didn't get a tan. I applied several layers of sunscreen. For body painting, we go to Thailand to buy it.
Waterproof bags, mobile phones and cameras are all bought in Taobao, because in Thailand, most of them go out to sea, seaside and swimming pool, and all of them touch water. My camera fell into the swimming pool while playing in the swimming pool, and the maintenance cost is 2 yuan.
so I suggest you buy waterproof bags. I always apply one mask a day to repair the mask after sun exposure.
a shopping bag or a luggage bag can also be bought after going there, because the round-trip flight from Bangkok to Phuket is only 15kg, so it was ok when I went there, but it became heavier when I came back because I bought a bunch of cosmetics in Phuket.
fortunately, I brought a duffel bag, so I can take my clothes with me.
