:lol:Welll i'm happy for you to recommend some places that are full of hot lasses...You don't have to clarify. I am sure you are only interested in paying visits to Buddhist temples.
yeah i completely forgot about those places. They look amazing!Possibly you'll like Phang Nga Bay and Halong Bay.
Yeah still thinking about Phuket, I thought it only really offered beachy stuff and not much else?If you aren't interested in partying and tanning on beaches, you can skip Phuket. Though Phuket Town is interesting to be explored on foot.
Even for a fat pastey internet geek?? Sounds sehr gut! i'm a so hitting the gym and workin on the tane thenBeach, booze, drugs and sex, try Patong Beach.
I think this video best describes Phuket's nightlife.Yeah still thinking about Phuket, I thought it only really offered beachy stuff and not much else?
Pattaya, only a 2-hour drive from BKK. Just make sure you go to the straight beach.:lol:Welll i'm happy for you to recommend some places that are full of hot lasses...
Really insightful - thankyouAngkor is amazing, but Siem reap is very touristy and if you're going to do it i'd spend 3 or so days there – there's a lot to see, getting through the ruins can take time especially if there are a lot of tourists, and some of the ruins are pretty distant but well worth the visit, bantaei srei, beng maelia
Phnom Penh is not very beautiful, but it's less touristy than other capitals and there are a few very interesting things to see, mostly to do with the Khmer Rouge massacres. Also, if you're going to Saigon it's on the way.....boat or bus.
As for Thailand, Phuket has more to do (if you're not the sitting on the beach type) than the other tropical islands, but I think most of the other island have better beaches. If you're going from Bangkok to Chiang Mai or vice versa, you might like to stop along the way at either Ayutthaya or Sukhothai, both older capitals of Siam with decent ruins. I personally think Ayutthaya is better, and it's more convenient if you want to catch the train.
Vietnam has a lot: Hanoi is good, with Ha Long bay just up the road but be careful with who you book the trip with. If you wish to do the hill tribe thing outside of Thailand, Sapa is nice. To me Nimh Binh/Tam Croc is overrated, especially if you've seen Ha long bay. Hue, the old imperial capital in the centre and masoleums not far away is a good stop, Hoi An is quite beautiful with it's historic vientnamese and french colonial architecture (probably the best outside of luang prabang) but I probably wouldn't want to spend too long there. Nha Trang has nice beaches, and a few sites including some cham ruins (*if you've been to angkor already, you'll be bored). Saigon has loads to do, with a large variety of stuff you can do just outside of the city too. A trip to/through the mekong delta can be fun/interesting. Dalat is not really worth the effort to get there.
It really depends on how much time you have, where you should go – but your list looks pretty good at the moment.
. I was actually thinking of going for a month or maybe even more. Did you feel safe travelling around these places or did you feel like people might mug you in some areas?:lol: I youtubed this place...seems to be so many peados and single white/pale balding middle aged creeps wondering around aimlessly in the streetsPattaya, only a 2-hour drive from BKK. Just make sure you go to the straight beach.
Thanks for your post:cheers: But generally the people seem really nice? I really don't know what to expect from these villiage places (i should never have watched cannibal holocaust!)And Cambodian kids can be cheeky, so watch your wallet
.
thanks dude i really appreciate that!Do not miss Angkor/Siem Reap.
It is one of the most amazing places on earth. If you go, PM me, I will give you the details of a very honest/reliable/cool local tuk tuk driver. He can take you wherever you want, for a modest price. He also speaks english.
I have travelled a LOT... trust me, a few days in this guys Tuk Tuk is the travel bargain of the planet.
Pataya - give it a miss, trust me.
Bangkok is awesome, one of my favourite cities on earth.
:cheers:
Would really take Nate up on this, spiralout. Unless you are a local or know your stuff, you will get ripped off by taxi drivers etc. As soon as they see a white person, their eyes shift. Don't waver even if they start giving you a spiel about how they have four kids to feed.Do not miss Angkor/Siem Reap.
