je pars en thailande( en février bangkok et ensuite koh lanta, je suis à la recherche d'infos (insolites)sur les ballades et visite sur kho lanta, site pour le snorkeling, plagesde réve peu fréquenté sur les ilots proche de koh lanta(parc).
J'ai le routard, et d'autres guides.Mais je cherche des infos insolites.
j'ai réservé au LANTA SAND RESORT à long beach koh lanta.
Exact, c'est le meilleur moyen... juste faire attention aux minibus dont le sport favori est de choutter les farangs, ca m'a couté une clavicule et un séjour a l' hosto 🏴☠️
Allo ChrisCool,
J'ai mis une annonce sur le guide du routard par rapport à notre voyage en Thailande en Décembre prochain. Je demandais conseil sur Koh Phi phi et Koh Lanta. Toi tu me suggères Koh Lanta. Donc je crois bien y loger au moins 3 jours et j'irai visiter Phi Phi pour une journée. J'ai la chance de réserver au Lanta Island Resort sur la plage de Klong Dao Beach, me le conseilles-tu?? Merci à l, avance.
Linda et Marco

🏴☠️🏴☠️et s'etais juste pour toi, ou ils veulent ecraser tous les farengs?
Je te déconseille la visite de phi-phi à la journée...
Si tu prends un bateau classique (pas une vedette avec 3*250ch au cul!), t'a plus de temps de trajet que sur place! Et en plus t'es avec tout le monde. Heure de pointe 11h00 -> 16h00....
Bill,
Donc tu me conseilles quoi?? car il parait qu'a Koh Phi Phi se loger c'est cher. Nous arriverons à Krabi le 29 décembre. Pour le moment nous n'avons rien décidé et sommes ouvert à toutes suggestions intéressantes.
Mon meilleur souvenir de Lanta c’est l’Ouest de l’île qui est encore peu connu. Ne le dis à personne.
Un petit village de pêcheurs, des Restau super bon et pas cher…
Salut Accolade, tu serais surpris de voir le nombre de constructions de bungalows a l'Ouest de l'ile, pas loin de ce village de pecheur justement...c'est tres sympa mais pour les plages c'est pas vraiment ca 😉
Ce que je te conseille, c'est d'y prendre 2 nuits...
Une pour prifiter de l'ile, l'autre pour faire le tour de l'ile avec snorkelling sur une long tail.
Pour l'hébergement, il faut prendre un long tail dès ton arrivé au port et partir sur d'autres plages comme long beach (hat yao) ou encore hat ranti (prix ancore abordable), sinon tu seras vraiment déçu de la visite...
Je l'ai fais à partir de Krabi cette année avec des potes qui voulaient voir, un fiasco!!!
D'autres pourront surement te donner des prix plus frais que les miens, ou encore avec la fonction "recherche".
Sinon, concentre toi sur les iles/ilots au sud de Lanta.😉
Bill,
Un gros merci de tes conseils donc malgré que j'y serai le 29 décembre et ce pour trois jours (vraiment peak season) je prendrai une chance d'aller de l'avant sans réservation aux endroits que tu m'as mentionné comme long beach etc... j'ai aussi entendu parler de Rantee beach...tu connais??
Salut Accolade, tu serais surpris de voir le nombre de constructions de bungalows a l'Ouest de l'ile, pas loin de ce village de pecheur justement...c'est tres sympa mais pour les plages c'est pas vraiment ca 😉
tu serais surpris de voir le nombre de constructions de bungalows
Ce n’est pas possible !!!! On ne doit pas parler du même village de pêcheurs ??? En plus ce n’est pas vieux puisque j’y étais en Février de cette année.
C’est vrai que pour la plage, ce n’est pas possible, trop de vase. Sauf dans les petites îles juste en face, Attention aux oursins…cela me rappel une anecdote, nous étions dans ces îles justement qu’un pêcheur avait eu la gentillesse de nous y déposer, ma femme avait marché sur un oursin et commençait à piaffer parce que cela déclenchait « comme des brulures ». Notre ami pêcheur nous expliqua qu’il fallait que je lui fasse pipi sur la piqûre…crise de rire… mais cela à immédiatement stoppé la douleur !
Bon ! Je te mets une photo pour que tu me dises si c’est bien ce village ?
Que du bonheur de revoir des photos, je lance un manifeste !!!!!!
Il manque des photos dans nos forums ! 😏😏😏
Oui tu as raison je crois que c’est l’angle opposé.
As-tu vu des bungalows touristiques dans le secteur ??? Moi aucun !!
Salut Accolade, je parlais de ce village plus au Sud je pense (j'y etais en avril cette annee 😉), le village gipsy.... en repartant vers Old Town, tu vois pleins de bungalows en construction sur la droite face a la mer 😕 je reconnais ton village grace a la tour d' alerte, celle qu' on voit depuis le View Point je pense?
Presque à la pointe de l'ile oui oui oui ! je me souviens un chemin de terre qui monte trés fort et en haut sur la droite des villas qui dominent sur la mer ok ok.
Concernant le petit village dont nous parlons avec Vivlavie est plus à l'Est. Vraiment un quartier authentique pas de fareng, puisque pas de plage.
Exact d'ailleurs le chemin est si raide que peu de farangs osent y aller, j' y etais tout seul, les pecheurs tres sympas quoiqu' un peu mefiants 😎 bon ya rien a faire a part prendre une photo comme je l' ai fait 😉
Salut goodbill,
Voyant que tu as l'air de bien connaitre les environs de phi phi et koh lanta, je me permets de te poser une question :
Un peu short dans le timing, je dois prendre la décision de passer 4 jours sur koh phi phi et jours sur koh lanta ou l'inverse.
Sachant que je fais un peu de plongée et que j'aimerais faire quelques excursions en bateau, peux tu me dire quel est le meileur choix.
A savoir aussi que je vais résider sur la cote est de koh phi phi.
Pour finir je passe une dernière nuit sur krabi avant de prendre l'avion (peut être que cette dernière n'a pas d'interet et mais j'aimerais passer voir railey)
merci pour tes réponses ou celles de personnes qui pourraient lire mon message.

BON VOYAGE
KOH LANTA, MAINTENANT LE CHOC, je n'ai rien retrouve au niveau de la plage de ce que j'avais vu il y a 3 ans, DESTROY PAR LE TSUNAMI, les bungalows KAW KWANG au nord de l'ile, ou nous etions tu te rappelles mickael, avec sa jolie plage, une impression de fin du monde, ils reconstruisent mais c'est pour les touristes avec bcp de fric.
Donc nous sommes allees a SUNNY bungalows 900 baths tous neufs. De tte facon tu ne trouves que des constructions neuves sur cette merveilleuse plage, le tsunami a tt embarque. Par contre le quartier SALADAN n'a pas ete touche . Cela m'a fait MAL tres MAL. J'avais les boyaux noues et la chair de poule. Il n'y a plus un seul thai sur la plage, avant il avait des petits camelots de bouffe, NADA. D'ailleurs tu ne vois aucun thai au bord de l'eau ni ds l'eau. C'est DUR tres DUR. Les touristes reviennent petits a petits.
10 01 07 MERCREDI
Je suis une STAR dans notre hotel a KOH LANTA, Jean Louis m'a reconnu parcequ'il connaissait mon site. Idem l'ile de penang en malaisie il y a 3 ans ou une nana m'avait reconnu.
Tous les soirs nous allons au SUNSET BAR et l'on s'enfile 2 pina colada chacune, nous faisons de jolies PHOTOS.
11 01 07 JEUDI
Apres un super breakfast, nous sommes parties en balade ds le sud de l'ile de KOH LANTA avec notre driver TUK TUK qui s'appelle KIP, nous avons fait des stops paysages magnifiques :KLONG KHONGKLONG TOABTIGER CAVE ELEPHANTKLONG HINSANG GA U, village de gipsy qui suite au tsunami le gouvernement reconstruit leurs maisons en dur en haut de la colline et les gipsys font de la resistance ils veulent rester en bas au bord de la mer, le GDR dit que les constructions seraient une facon de virer les gypsis. A SUIVRE.LANTA OLD TOWNSUMATE KOH LANTA YAI elephants.Ce fut une super balade et notre driver est adorable.
Nous avons demande a KIP de nous sortir le soir ds un resto thai avec des musiciens thai qui chante CARABAO. Il nous a emmene ds un endroit super sympa "RIMRUA SEAFOOD", on a bu un tonneau de bierre, poisson grille bouffe thai epicee pour secotine et kip, for me no spacy.
On a commence par chante BIN BIN BIN avec les musiciens et ils sont devenus nos copains.JACK le batteur et chanteurWOTH le petit chanteur et guitaristeLAH fiance de secotine il l'a bouffait du regard et ELLE me dit HO Mais JE N'AI RIEN VU (mon oeil)TEE SHIRT ROSE chanteurTEE SHIRT NOIR guitaristeOY copinne de secotinne
ET VLATIPA que notre guide driver KIP tombe ds les bras de BACCUS. On a continue a faire la teuf, danse, avec nos nouveaux copains pendant ce temps KIP faisait dodo. Au moment de partir JACK n'a pas voulu que KIP conduise pour nous ramener. Donc JACK a conduit le tuktuk, secotine kip et tintina ds le tuk tuk et WOTH en moto qui nous suivait afin de ramener JACK. De grosses embrassades pour se dire ADIEU car le lendemain nous quittions KOH LANTA.

Hi everyone,
I’m looking for addresses for guesthouses or, even better, houseboats or rafting houses on the River Kwai, between Kanchanaburi and Sangkhlaburi, to spend a few weeks contemplating this beautiful river.
Thanks for your suggestions!

Hi there,
we’re currently in Mai Chau and tomorrow we’re hitting the road back to Hanoi to head up toward Bac Ha and Sapa.
We haven’t really had a set plan since we arrived—we’ve already done the Halong Bay on land and by sea.
I’ve got 2 free days before heading to Bac Ha and Sapa.
Any tips?
Thanks, and looking forward to hearing from you.
Hi fellow travelers,
First trip to Vietnam.
We’ll be arriving in Ho Chi Minh City during Tet.
Is it complicated to find accommodation and get around during this period?
Any tips would be welcome.
Thanks for your replies.
Silly question—backpack or hard-shell suitcase for the Sepilok, Kinabatangan, Tioman, KL trip?
I’m struggling to fit all my son’s and my stuff into the 70L backpack... and I’m thinking a suitcase would be easier, but I’m not sure if it’ll work for getting around.
Hi there,
I didn’t plan to return to Thailand this year, but my health conditions mean it’ll be the best place for me to stay between two trips to India. The tourism setup there is so well-organized that it’s the most "comfortable" country for a short visit. Thailand feels too sanitized for my taste, and there’s too much religion, Buddha, and the King, but it’s still the best option given how my health has been evolving. I’d considered two weeks in ThaTon for hiking, but I got too sick from the burn-offs during my trips to the mountains around Chiang Rai. So I’m not sure where to go this year. Definitely not the sea, touristy spots, or the mountains with burn-offs...
Hello.
In 1996, we crossed Vietnam from Saigon to Hanoi by motorbike—Minsk bikes we bought in Saigon. I haven’t been back since, and it seems like a lot has changed.
- We’re heading to the south (well, the north and center) with the family in July-August (3 people).
- Is the road network more developed now? Back then, there was only National Route 1 from south to north. I’m thinking of renting a car this time (no motorbike with the family—though in ’96, they had a Jawa sidecar for sale, and we hesitated… maybe it’s for the best).
- Is Halong Bay really something to avoid because of overtourism? Even back then, it was pretty crowded. Is there a less touristy alternative?
- We’ll be traveling from Hanoi down to Danang (the only city we didn’t stop in back in ’96). Even though it’s a bit overhyped in a Chinese-tourist kind of way (from what I’ve read), we’re only going for the beach—pure relaxation for 7 days. The beaches are stunning, and I know the South China Sea is warm like coffee.
- Then, we’ll visit Hoi An, where I stopped in ’96. It was already popular with backpackers back then, but no glowing boats or all the touristy fuss!
- After that, Hue, where I have great memories—it’s a beautiful city.
- And also the nature around Ninh Binh, followed by 2-3 days in Hanoi.
That’s the plan. I’d love to hear any tips to avoid mass tourism, and if anyone’s done this before:
- Is it possible to rent a car in Danang and drop it off in Hanoi?
Hey everyone,
I’m over in East Borneo in mid-July.
I’m struggling to wrap up the end of my itinerary, even though it’s pretty straightforward (long but simple).
Last year, we did Malaysia (KL and the mainland + around Kuching).
Day 1 – Arrive in Kota Kinabalu early, stroll around town and hit the must-sees.
Day 2 – Excursion to Tunku Abdul Rahman Park, snorkeling at 3 islands.
Day 3 – Hike around Mount Kinabalu without summiting (450 per person, no way).
Day 4 – Poring Hot Springs + evening flight to Sandakan.
Day 5-6-7 – Kinabatangan River (still looking for the right guide).
Day 8 – Sepilok for the orangutans, the Sun Bear Centre, and Rainforest Discovery Centre.
Day 9 – Selingan, turtle island.
Day 10 – Head to Semporna.
Day 11-12-13-14 – Sipadan, Mabul, Kapalai.
Day 15 – Bohey Dulang.
Day 16 to Day 25: I’M STUCK.
I looked into Danum Valley, but for 3 days/2 nights, they’re quoting 650 € per person—come on, that’s ridiculous.
I checked out a detour into Indonesia (still East Borneo), but I’m having trouble deciding what would be amazing.
I read about Sangalaki + Kakaban (2 islands, 1 base) / Mahakam Delta - Kutai (orangutans and river) / Sungai Boh (Dayak Kayan) – jungle & culture.
But honestly, I’m struggling to finalize this itinerary.
If we venture that way, we’d head back to KK from Balikpapan.
For a 4-month stay in Egypt, I had ENORMOUS problems. The regulations are very bureaucratic and extremely nitpicky there. For a 4-month stay in the Philippines, I was wondering if the procedures are just as complicated? I’m bringing my cell phone with an eSIM. Should I choose a plan from Canada for use in the Philippines, or should I get a plan only once I arrive? After 30 days, do I renew with the Canadian provider I chose before leaving, or do I switch to a local company? Do I need to register my phone with the authorities in the Philippines? (That was the case in Egypt.) For the 3rd and 4th months, will it be just as simple—renewing with a Canadian or local provider—or should I expect problems?
Hello,
I’ll be in Malaysia with my wife, mainly in Langkawi and Penang for Christmas and New Year’s at the end of 2026.
If you’ve had the experience—and since I’ve read (though it’s not very clear) that these two islands get quite crowded during this period—would you recommend booking accommodation well in advance, or is it easy to find something on the spot?
Hotels or Airbnb?
Do you have any great tips for accommodation or any practical info to share?
We’ll be staying 5 to 7 days on each island.
Thanks in advance for your replies
Hi there. To make the most of Lake Toba, is it better to find accommodation on the lake’s shores (which one?) or on Samosir Island? Thanks for your tips!
Hi there,
We’re heading to Vietnam as a family on July 8th for a little over 3 weeks (north and center). We’ve only booked the first 3 nights in Hanoi, and nothing else after that. We like to decide things on the spot and go with the flow, without rushing everywhere. But I’m still a bit unsure: when heading down to the center (Hue), is it better to book the overnight trains in advance? We don’t want to take any flights while we’re there—just use the overnight train for the long trips. But I’m worried we won’t get seats if we buy the tickets on the spot, say, 2 days before. What do the experts here think? And which website can we use to book the tickets? Thanks in advance for your tips!
Hi everyone!
I’m heading back to Thailand in July 2026 with a stopover in Cambodia to visit the Angkor site.
After Angkor, I’ve booked a stay on Ko Chang island. Does anyone know if there are direct transport options from Cambodia to Ko Chang without having to go back through Bangkok? That would be amazing!!
I think there are, but I’d need more details!!
I went to Thailand in February 2025 and don’t remember having to apply for a visa—is that still the case now? And for Cambodia too?
Thanks so much!!!

I’d love to get some feedback on our itinerary—it’s probably pretty basic! This is our second trip to Asia and our first to Indonesia. We have three kids aged 20, 18, and 12. We land in Jakarta at 4 PM, spend 3 nights/2 days there, then take the train to Yogyakarta for 3 nights/2 days, followed by the train to Surabaya for 2 nights/1 day, then the train to Bromo for 1 day/1 night, a private driver to Ijen for 2 nights/2 days, then on to Bali (Ubud) for 4 nights/3 days, followed by Gili Air for 3 nights/2 days, Senggigi (Lombok) for 2 nights, and finally 5 nights in Kuta. I’m considering cutting the 2 nights in Senggigi to just keep Kuta and extend it to 7 nights. In Lombok, I’m not sure how to get around since I’m not comfortable with scooters... Your thoughts on all of this, and any advice, are more than welcome—don’t hesitate!
For those wondering why cities like Jakarta and Surabaya: we don’t often get the chance to visit big Asian cities, so we wanted to include that discovery in our trip. The trains between Jakarta and Yogyakarta, Surabaya and Probolinggo are booked. The return flight from Lombok to Jakarta is also set. Accommodations are booked but flexible (same for the trains).
Hi,
After our trip to China, we want to spend a week in the Philippines for some beach time and snorkeling.
We're looking for the best spot to settle in—nice beaches, great marine life, and short transfer times.
Thanks for your suggestions!
Does anyone know of a private transfer or taxi company that organizes transfers from the Sukhothai area to Chiang Mai?
Our routes are Sukhothai-Lampang, Lampang-Chom Thong, and Chom Thong-Chiang Mai.
My searches on Google Maps, 12Go, and others haven’t turned up much...
For our Bangkok-Sukhothai trips, I use a company I’ve already tried, but they don’t have a fleet available from Sukhothai and have to go through third-party companies—which, understandably, take their commission. This nearly doubles the prices...
There are four of us, and we’re not traveling light, so a minibus isn’t an option. ;-)
Hello,
While traveling in Thailand, I’m looking for a Buddhist kumlai reed bracelet.
Does anyone know where I can find one?
In Bangkok, I visited a few temples but didn’t see any in the nearby shops.
If you have any ideas, I’d love to hear them! Have a great day! :-)
My trip’s coming up, and I’m having a bit of trouble with three bus/minivan routes. Usually, I find everything at this time of year, but this time—yikes!
Sandakan → Sepilok:
No app for this one—you just hop on bus #14 at the local terminal (pay cash on board). But where do I catch it, and where’s the stop??
Sandakan → Semporna:
From what I’ve heard, it’s the Sida Express company (great name, right? 😄).
Can’t book online, but apparently, you *have* to because there’s only one bus at 8 AM.
Where do I board, and where does it drop me off?
Semporna → Tawau:
Found this via AI—is it legit?
No online booking, as far as I can tell.
Minivans leave from a stop in the Jalan Hospital area, near the Milimewa supermarket, supposedly????
And when you arrive, does it drop you at **Sabindo Square** in Tawau?????
Hi there,
we’ll be in Mai Chau in June and we’re thinking of heading to Sapa, but first spending a few days in Bac Ha to do some hiking and explore the area.
Is this a good idea for those who’ve been there?
How do you get there?
Thanks for your feedback.
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Cédric.
Hi everyone. As I’m planning my trip for next winter, I’m looking for hotel suggestions in Camotes, Bantayan, Malapascua, Bohol, and Siquijor. The ones I had in mind seem to be fully booked (unless it’s too early?). For those familiar with the area, is it easy to find accommodations on the spot in January/February? I’m specifically looking for hotels with a pool, beachfront, air conditioning, and easy scooter rental nearby. Thanks for your tips!
Hi there,
I’m planning an itinerary and would love some feedback on whether it’s doable and if the number of days per destination is enough—or too much. I was also debating whether to add an extra night on an island or spend an extra night in Kampot to visit Kep or Battambang.
March 23: Arrival in Phnom Penh in the morning
March 24: Phnom Penh
March 25: Phnom Penh
March 26: Depart for Kampot
March 27: Kampot
March 28: Depart for Battambang
March 29: Battambang
March 30: Tonlé SAP to Siem Reap
March 31: Siem Reap
April 1: Siem Reap
April 2: Siem Reap
April 3: Siem Reap
April 4: Siem Reap
April 5: Departure
Hi there,
Yesterday in the Thailand section, 100% of the new threads were just about beach destinations 😕...
So here’s the counterattack in the form of this photo thread, dedicated solely to the countryside: the locals, their livestock, fields, farms, rice paddies, small rivers, and agricultural machinery. If you’ve got any pictures that fit these categories, feel free to add them!
Comments welcome.
For each photo, I’ll (or you can) indicate the area where it was taken.
Hope you're all doing well! It's been a while since I last traveled, but I'm finally heading out again soon!
For those familiar with SOUTHEAST ASIA, I'm planning to leave in mid-June (with the trip ending at the latest in November), and I don’t have a precise idea of exact places or itineraries yet. The thing is, this period is usually the rainy season...
Any advice? I was thinking of Malaysia or Indonesia, like Sulawesi, for example (all countries and islands in Southeast Asia interest me except Bali).
Any recommendations? I’m doing my research online, but if anyone here has the time and knowledge, I’d love to hear from you.
My partner and I are planning a trip to Indonesia in September-October 2026. It’ll be our first time in Asia, and we’re thinking of hitting the classic spots in East Java and Bali, then wrapping up with a cruise around Komodo for some snorkeling/diving. Here’s a rough draft of our itinerary—I’m wondering if it’s doable.

21/09: Borobudur
22/09: Prambanan
23/09: Travel to Bromo (Cemoro Lawang)
24/09: Bromo
25/09: Kawa Ijen
26/09: Travel to Bali, overnight in Pemuteran
27/09: Excursion to Pulau Melujan, overnight in Pemuteran
28/09: Travel to Munduk, overnight in Munduk
29/09: Explore Munduk and surroundings, overnight in Munduk
30/09: Explore Munduk and surroundings, overnight in Munduk

02/10: Explore Ubud and surroundings, overnight in Ubud
03/10: Explore Ubud and surroundings, overnight in Ubud
04/10: Travel to Denpasar, flight to Labuan Bajo, overnight in Labuan Bajo
05/10: Komodo cruise
06/10: Komodo cruise
07/10: Komodo cruise, flight to Denpasar in the late afternoon/evening or overnight in Labuan Bajo.
08/10: Flight to Denpasar (if not taken the day before), afternoon in Jimbaran, overnight near Denpasar
09/10: 10:00 AM flight Denpasar - SIN, overnight in Singapore
10/10: Flight SIN-YQB
Hi everyone,
My girlfriend and I booked our tickets with Saudia Airlines for a trip to Thailand this summer, from July 5th to August 3rd. Given the geopolitical situation in the Middle East, we’re keeping a close eye on the news.
I was wondering if anyone here is in the same situation as us?
• Have you heard anything about possible mass cancellations or if the airline is still maintaining its routes to Asia?
• Are there any travelers who’ve recently returned who could tell us if air corridors have been changed (longer flight times)?
The idea is to know what to expect so we can prepare as best as possible. Thanks for your replies! !
Thanks for all your contributions on the forum—they’ve really helped me plan my trip. There are four of us friends heading to Sulawesi for 20 days. Based on all your advice, I’ve put together the following itinerary:
July 30: Makassar – sightseeing
July 31: Makassar – sightseeing + overnight bus to Rantepao
August 1–7: Tana Toraja with a guide
August 7: Tana Toraja to Tentena + visit Tentena
August 8: Early departure with a private driver to Ampana, then ferry to the Togian Islands
August 9–15: Togian Islands (2 different resorts)
August 15: Depart Togian Islands for Luwuk
August 16: Flight Luwuk to Makassar
August 17: Rammang Rammang
August 18: Stroll in Makassar, then return home
Overall, what do you think?
I also have a question about the connection between Tentena and the Togian Islands: Is it doable to leave early in the morning as planned and still be sure not to miss the ferry?
Hi everyone,
I’m currently working on a 30-day itinerary for May/June 2027.
10 days in eastern Java (Malang, Bromo, waterfalls, Meru Beriti Park, Banyuwangi, and Ijen), a short transit in Ubud for a few days, then Flores before heading back to Jakarta.
We’ll spend 15 days in Flores (the classic route: Moni, Bajawa, Riung, Ruteng, ending in Labuan Bajo).
I’d love some firsthand feedback on flights to Maumere or Ende from Bali Denpasar. I know there are no direct routes and that you have to connect through Labuan Bajo or Timor (I think), which isn’t an issue in itself.
But I’ve read here and there that flights to these destinations can be delayed—or worse, canceled—and that it’s better to fly in and out of Labuan Bajo, which isn’t exactly ideal...
Thanks for any tips or experiences you can share!
