Rely on the road next to the airport 2 line.

More from 5 am to 1 am the following day, every 35 minutes. There is also a taxi next to touting to shout out a car 150 baht to airport price, than by bus but also cheaper. But we didn't dare to sit, or take a bus to become familiar with it security:)

At the Bangkok airport, people sweat, boarding pass on the line for half an hour.

Immediately before the foreign tourists have to pay 500 baht/person's departure tax, so when we go to the airport or do you want to stay a little money. Through customs and queues. So you always leave plenty of time.

Other important reminders:

Orange Card of misunderstanding: in Raiders on more than one person mentioned orange SIM cards, is to make international long distance cheap.

Everyone says to buy a card, 99 baht or 199 baht, activated inside have so much money, you can hit. Fact this is not the case, this information gives us a lot of misleading, so we spent nearly two hours to make this clear: it is now no 99 baht card sold, only 199 baht (this is the 7-11 store clerk told us, I do not know is true). No matter how much money card, the money just to buy a sim card, also is to buy a mobile phone number, this and domestic mobile, Unicom is the same, and not your card, there is so much money. Depending on your card, it gives you a different preferential packages, for example we bought 199 baht is 12 months each month free of charge to your card in 30 baht, there are also 50 baht per month, the period of may, the short point and you get this card money is nothing. If you have enough money, you need to buy a prepaid card to recharge it. Therefore, just a short trip to Thailand is not necessary to buy this card, is not a value. We later discovered a better way. If you are not a great need for using a mobile phone, only to the home safe, does not require domestic family members can find you at any time, we recommend that you never have to go out with a mobile phone. Thailand there are telephone booths, usually two ordinary telephone booth an international telephone booth, everywhere you can find this kind of international pay phone, it can be played directly by credit card (visa or Mastercard system for all rows), you take credit cards slipped and then pulled out, like credit cards, and so on screen display information before you can call up, costs in your credit card. This tariff is relatively expensive. In addition you can also buy a call Lenso international calling card (7-11 are available), like domestic card phone card, can in this international pay phone, use the methods and internal magnetic card phone, tariff, the Chinese mainland is 7 baht/min. The international public telephones at the airport, main street, tourist attractions in Phuket are everywhere, but also many, very convenient. We carefully research the phone purchase orange card really regret it dead. Now I have an orange SIM card, there will still be every month to this card in 30 baht, so a year if you have any other friends to play to Thailand, I free this phone card, of course, you want people in Nanjing, to not give you? hehe

The weather and the seasons: Thailand's tourist season is from April to November, the rest is the peak season, which before Christmas to a period of time after the Spring Festival is the Super peak season, the English called "Pearl quarter" price is the highest.

Low season in Phuket, local rates lower than during the peak season is more than half of the season to go to Thailand to play really can save a lot of money. But how is the climate in the low season we do not know, since it is the low season, there must be something not great for tourism of factors.

Although it is the high season, the weather is very hot.

Our Nanjing is very hot in summer, General heat we should better than the North. However, it is so great that Thailand is very hot. Therefore, we must note the sunscreen, drink plenty of water, eat more fruit.

Carry-on luggage: many people feel so hot and of course to take short-sleeve, so have we.

But after we went to Thailand for summary, preferably with thin cotton long-sleeved shirt of relaxed, this can greatly sun protection, short-sleeved in tourism is actually not very fit, especially afraid of the Sun. If you go to the seaside course to bring shorts, but most importantly, be sure to bring a pair of plastic sandals or sandals weighed, it is by the sea is too useful, but you can also use the hotel, where basic is not providing disposable slippers.

Bring a towel, but not necessarily with large bath towel.

Some hotels do not offer the wash towel. But most hotels provide badong large bath towels for you to use on the beach.

Wear sunglasses, a hat, sunscreen, etc. all the things you can Sun protection, why do I say.

Take a drug to prevent diarrhea, lacerated hand, essential balm also brought to the room although no mosquitoes, but night outdoor or Yes, and also very itchy bites.

Necessary to remind, bring motion sickness drugs. Sailing boat swaying when play bigger, some people may feel sick, for example, my husband.

Tip: in General is 20 baht, not to the coin, because in Thailand coin only pay or give a beggar is available.

Only hotel luggage needs to, if you live in a hotel room has a small card, tell you as you clean the room's who who's who, it is best to leave a tip, on the nightstand, no cards don't have to. Taxi drivers do not need special to, if you find no more leniently, such as a few baht, can do not need to find out, the driver will beVery happy. Usually don't have to eat, etc., of course, if you eat at the 5 star hotel. If what the service staff to provide you with a warm service, you feel so moved, of course you can give, for example, we'll introduce the enthusiasm and help us stop the car door was 20 baht. In fact this money relative to the cost of you go to Thailand is insignificant, you need to, don't lose the Chinese face (this is for a small fee, the old saying a Word, huh, huh).

Language: the overall feeling is really suitable for initial Thailand tours, because here the tourism services are developed, and service personnel are also available in English, if your English is not too bad, there is no problem.

But Thailand's English pronunciation is not standard, then we are not accustomed to, always understand what they were saying, we can't understand, some non-English speaking countries foreigners can't understand, we see two Germany women engage in a half-day didn't understand ticket is 20 baht or 30 baht:) you want to hear more, so it can be used to start, never think that is their English is poor, huh, huh.

Customs: either Bangkok or Phuket, feel the locals live is very relaxed, there is no hurry hard atmosphere that even a cat cats dogs are lazy.

Particularly in Phuket, 10 am, a lot of shops will open the door, if you get up in the morning, going out even the breakfast place is difficult to find. We are there for a few days, each morning to the same family for breakfast, only in the morning 10: 45 eat once, and the remaining 9 point several times are being told to "get up" chef haven't; checkout is the same, do not worry not busy, and so on for a long time before it was to count the money.

Thailand's security is quite good, do not worry about security, downtown I look didn't even notice there is a thief, which as we have here is a thief in Xinjiang.

Thailand are very polite, very warm, this let us protect ourselves this habit, always been education "don't talk to strangers" is not used at the beginning. We always have someone to help us with enthusiasm, passion to ask where we come from, and we chat with enthusiasm, passion for us the way, a passionate with their own cell phone to call ... We like a piece of ice, self protection of shell in Thailand were warm slowly melting. However, have to say is that in Thailand, try not to believe that the local business Chinese, we do business in Thailand and overseas contacts, twice being cheated twice, once to eat seafood and Chinese boss, one patron on the Nat GuestHouse swiping our proprietress. It really makes us feel helpless ...
