Je poste beaucoup en ce moment désolé ^^
J'ai une question concernant les transports dans le pays en Juillet.
Je serai en Thaïlande du 7 au 29 Juillet.
J'ai déjà réservé les billets d'avions nécessaires pour certains trajets, mais je dois encore faire ces trajets :
- Bangkok -> Ayutthaya (Bus ou Train)
- Ayutthaya -> Khon kaen (Train)
- Krabi -> Koh Samui (Bus + Ferry)
- Koh samui -> Khao sok (Ferry + Bus)
- Khao Sok -> Surat thani (Bus)
Aucun de ces trajets sera fait de nuit sauf "Ayutthaya -> Khon kaen" 20h -> 2h du matin.
J'ai regardé les tarifs des billets de train, bus et ferry sur "thailandtrainticket" et sur "12goasia". Je trouve les prix vraiment cher sur les trajets en bus et ferry sur 12goasia et j'ai surtout pas vraiment confiance en ces sites. Mes questions sont celles ci :
- Est-ce que pour un voyage en juillet, je peux me passer de réserver les billets de bus, ferry et train ? Si oui, est-ce facile de trouver les points d'achats pour ces divers moyens de transports ? - Est-ce que les prix sur place, seront moins cher que sur 12goasia ?
- Pour 12goasia, reçoit on les billets par mail ou faut il les récupérer sur place quelques parts ?
D'ailleurs sur Go Asia, comment faire pour voir l'itinéraire que va prendre le bus + ferry, ou si il y a des "escales" ou "arret" ? par exemple pour un trajet Krabi -> koh samui avec "Songserm" (https://12go.asia/fr/travel/krabi/koh-samui?date=2017-07-20), on sait simplement que le bus part de "Krabi Andaman Wave Master" et arrive à "Na thon" mais y a t'il un arrêt à Surat thani ?
Bangkok -> Ayutthaya faisable en bus ou train mais le train est je trouve plus pratique, bien plus sympa et pas cher (15 bahts en 3ème classe. Vous avez les horaires ICI. Pas besoin de réserver, vous prenez vos billets à la gare un peu avant le départ.
Ayutthaya -> Khon kaen faisable en train, en bus aussi mais avec des changements (au moins 1). Donc le plus pratique, c'est peut-être de retourner en train à Don Muang (le 2e aéroport de Bangkok) puis de prendre un vol low cost pour Khon Kaen.
Krabi -> Koh Samui (Bus + Ferry) oui, vous passerez par Surat Thani mais surtout par Donsak l'embarcadère près de Surat Thani.
A mon avis c'est une perte de temps de faire Krabi - Koh Samui et ensuite Khao Sok, mieux vaut aller de Krabi à Khao Sok pui de Khao Sok à Koh Samui (via Surat Thani).
Pour les avoir utilisé et connaître beaucoup de gens satisfaits, je peux vous assurez que 12go est sérieux et fiable. C'est vrai qu'ils se font une marge pas négligeables sur les billets de train mais c'est parce qu'ils doivent aller les acheter physiquement et vous les mettre à disposition dans leurs bureaux. Par contre pour bus et ferry ce sont les prix que vous trouverez sur place en passant par les mêmes compagnies de bus ou bateau.
Je ne vais pas rentrer dans un échange qui n'a rien à voir avec la question initialement posée et qui est en train de pourrir ce post. Si mes interventions vous dérangent, dénoncez-les aux administrateurs. S'ils vous suivent cela privera les membres de conseils qui leur sont utiles, j'en suis sûr.
Par ailleurs, il me semble qu'avec le contenu que nous écrivons nous permettons à ce forum qui lui aussi essaie de gagner de l'argent, et c'est bien normal, d'avoir plus d'audience pour ces pubs et donc de gagner de l'argent.
Si vous voulez continuer d'échanger ce sera en MP.
Bonjour,
Nul besoin de réserver en avance tes transports en juillet.
- Bangkok -> Ayutthaya (Bus ou Train)- Ayutthaya -> Khon kaen (Train)
- Krabi -> Koh Samui (Bus + Ferry)
- Koh samui -> Khao sok (Ferry + Bus)
- Khao Sok -> Surat thani (Bus)
Comme dit asianmike j'inverserai khao sok
Le train entre Ayutthaya et khon kean possède une très belle section sur le lac de lumtakong c'est vraiment dommage de faire ce voyage de nuit. J'ai pas les photos sous la main, tu as l'impression de flotter sur le lac car la ligne est construite au dessus de l'eau.
Nous avons supprimé le "tracking" de votre lien, et nous vous prions d'éviter à l'avenir ce genre de pratique qui, contrairement pour vous, n'apporte strictement rien de plus aux internautes. Dans le cas contraire, nous nous verrions en effet dans l'obligation de fermer définitivement votre compte.
Je ne fais pas de pub, je prends le temps de rédiger des réponses longues et détaillées qui ne sont absolument pas orientées pour faire de l'argent mais pour renseigner et aider sur des posts qui souvent n'ont pas eu de réponse ou maximum 2 réponses. Regardez en détails, j'apporte de vraies réponses utiles sur des posts qui souvent ont eu peu d'info.
Avant d'avoir une affiliation, je partageais ces mêmes liens sans tracking, d'ailleurs c'est ce que vous me demandez de faire encore sans tracking, le mettre ne change rien pour le visiteur qui éventuellement les suivrait, il a les mêmes infos et le même prix si jamais il décide de réserver.
C'est votre forum, vous fixez les règles mais le contenu que les gens écrivent, vous génère des revenus aussi il me semble, il y a des pubs sur voyageforum et sans personnes qui prennent de leur temps pour faire vivre votre forum et apporter contenu et conseils de qualité, vous n'auriez pas les revenus que vous avez.
Je me plie à votre injonction. Vous avez raison, ça n'apporte rien de plus à l'internaute mais il n'est pas lesé par "cette pratique" et voyageforum non plus.
Vous êtes formidable
Vous n'êtes là que pour avoir du trafic sur votre site Thailandee,
où tous les liens sont avec un code affiliation qui vous rapporte de l'argent
Vous avez une activité commerciale et le forum VF vous est indispensable pour attirer des clients en direct ou via les moteurs de recherche.
Vous n'hésitez pas à bannir les personnes qui viennent sur votre groupe Facebook et qui dénoncent votre principe.
Merci du compliment, mais je ne suis pas si formidable que ça.
Vous avez raison les 11 visites que m'a apportées Voyageforum depuis le 1er janvier de cette année, sont vitales pour moi !
Je ne cherche que ça quand je viens. Pour le temps passé à répondre en détails, 11 visites, c'est juste incroyable, grâce à ça je vais pouvoir construire la piscine de ma villa. Quant à mon groupe, j'autorise les gens à mentionner leur activité et leurs site et même à partager des liens trackés, justement s'ils font ce que je fais ici c'est à dire le font de façon pertinente en réponse à une question.
Je continue à venir ici de temps temps parce que je l'ai utilisé ce forum pour mes premiers voyages et je trouve un juste retour des choses que de continuer d'y participer mais puisque Les6m a décidé que je n'étais pas le bienvenu, pas de souci, je m'en vais (normalement c'est à voyageforum de me virer pas à vous mais pour une raison qui m'échappe vous voulez ma peau et bien bravo, vous l'avez !), j'espère que vous saurez aussi bien renseigner les gens mon cher Les6m.
Bonne continuation à vous...
Au final, je vais réserver les billets de train BKK -> Ayutthaya et Ayutthaya -> khon kaen sur "thairailwayticket" et je vais voir pour résa le reste. On à choisi cet itinéraire (Krabi -> koh samui -> kaho sok), car on souhaite faire Khao sok en dernier avant le retour à BKK et surtout car on ne savait pas comment faire Krabi -> khao sok en direct. Depuis GoAsia il y a que des "taxi", mais c'est vrai qu'on aurait pu faire Krabi -> Surat et Surat -> khao sok.
Du coup quitte à aller à Surat obligatoirement, on va direct à Koh samui. De plus si il nous arrive un problème ou qu'il y a des pluies torrentielles d'un coup qui nous empêche de pouvoir reprendre le ferry, on préfère être plutôt du coté de Khao sok que bloqué sur l'ile.

Bonjour,
Je vous conseil encore une fois de ne pas prendre vos billets à l'avance, sur les 2 tronçons que vous voulez il y a tj de la place.
Je suis entrain de finaliser mes préparatifs pour mon prochain voyage à Prachuap Khiri Khan en janvier prochain (Merci à tous ceux qui m'y ont aidé sur ce…

Je compte prendre le train de nuit bangkok surat thani (mi novembre) et ensuite j ai vu qu il y avait un bus direct pour kao sok, j ai plusieurs questions: -…
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

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.
20/09: Flight from Jakarta to Yogyakarta, arrive around noon, afternoon/evening and overnight in Yogyakarta.
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

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!
