Une demande spéciale (impossible?) de la part d'une famille en voyage depuis près de cinq mois... et pour cinq mois à venir encore!
Après la Chine, le Népal, le Laos, la Thaïlande et la Birmanie, nous aimerions nous poser deux ou trois semaines sur une plage de la Thaïlande avant de poursuivre notre périple vers le Cambodge et le Viêt Nam (et caetera...) Deux ou trois semaines pour nous reposer (avec belle-maman qui nous rejoint pour dix jours), pour faire un peu l'école aux enfants... et pour tenter de tenir notre blogue à jour.
Nous cherchons un cadre de plage tranquille (quitte à ce que le sable soit moins parfait, on préfère ne pas être en plein centre d'un «resort») avec une GH tout près des vagues, de la climatisation et de l'espace pour aider à faire passer les maths (!), une connexion Internet (WiFi!) et, idéalement, des fruits de mer et du poisson frais à manger pas trop loin...
Hmmm, ai-je mentionné (gloups) que nous cherchons à ménager notre portefeuille? (Sur dix mois...)
Comme on dit au Québec: «Un chausson avec ça?»
Juste au cas où cet endroit existerait entre Bangkok et le Cambodge, je prends la chance de poser la question!
(Oh, et si l'information est trop délicate pour être rendue publique, j'accepte les messages privés!)
Salut, si ta préférence est sur le trajet BKK /CAMGODGE , je te conseillerais koh chang avec ses plages sympas, kai bee, lonely beach;une adresse paradise bungalow;500 baths,

Rahan, y pouvait pas s'perdre car y savait pas où il allait
Pour moi Koh Phangan dans le golfe de Thaïlande et plus particulièrement la plage de Ao Thong Na Paï. Sinon Prachuap Khiri Kan, ville sympa, pas cher et "authentique".
Koh Tao ...Pour ménager le portefeuille , c'est vraiment pas l'endroit , c'est même limite arnaque!!! Il y a les mêmes choses a Koh Phan Gan pour beaucoup moins cher et aussi beaucoup plus de choses a faire.
Y'en a pas un sur cent et pourtant ils existent. Leo Ferre
Un coin tranquille en semaine à 3 heures de bus de Bangkok , entre Rayong & Trat vers la frontiere cambodgienne.
Petite station balnéaire fréquentée par les locaux.

Bus depart 7h00 du terminal Ekamai . trajet via Chonburi & Klaeng .
Arrivée vers 10h40 . Terminus sur l'avenue longeant le bord de plage.
Belle plage toute en longueur sur des kms , bordee de cocotiers , filaos et autres arbres. Bonne brise rafraichissante .
plein de parasols et chaises longues , promenade sous les frondaisons entre etals de gargottes en plein air et
parasols . Rares etrangers , quelques familles thaies et peu de circulation.
et pas de ...gogo bar , c est l' anti Pattaya
Bungalow AC sdb avec grande terrasse pour 1400 baths avec pdej au VillaBali Resort à meme pas 100m de la plage
et 50m du terminus de bus .
Le soir plein de petits restaurants avec aquariums de poissons et crustacés sont ouverts du coté ou se trouvent les
hotels.
Koh Tao ...Pour ménager le portefeuille , c'est vraiment pas l'endroit , c'est même limite arnaque!!! Il y a les mêmes choses a Koh Phan Gan pour beaucoup moins cher et aussi beaucoup plus de choses a faire.
Koh Tao c'est loin d'être une arnaque, t'as pas trouvé le bon coin c'est tout !
Et ça n'a absolument rien à voir avec Koh Phan Ngan, c'est beaucoup plus petit et beaucoup plus sauvage !
June Juea Bay par exemple, plage tranquille avec bungalow, 400B /nuitée !
Alors comment trouvez vous ce petit coin que je vous ai indiqué ?
J aimerais connaitre votre avis . si vous voyez des cotés negatifs n'hesitez pas à en faire part , chacun est libre d'avoir son opinion .
Si je peux me permettre d'intervenir 😊 Je suis allée deux fois à Hat Mae Ramphung, donc tout près et j'ai vraiment adoré le calme de ce coin....Bon c'est pour justement ceux qui recherchent le calme !Mes deux ados à l'époque ne pensaient pas la même chose!
Nous sommes donc a Lae Mae Phim depuis une semaine. En fait, nous sommes un peu à l'écart, à cinq kilomètres, dans le resort de Rock Garden Beach, de l'autre côté du cap. Il s'agit là d'environ deux cents villas construites au bord de la mer il y a une vingtaine d'années. Nous avons trouvé la notre sur le site homeaway.com et l'avons loué directement de la propriétaire. Pour nous, à sept personnes (trois adultes et quatre enfants), c'est moins cher que de louer des chambres en guest house. Et ce que nous avons trouvé est infiniment plus luxueux (villa avec énorme cuisine toute équipée, trois chambres à coucher et trois salles de bains complètes, salon avec système cinéma maison, le tout fraichement rénové...) Pour nous qui sommes en sac à dos depuis cinq mois et pour cinq mois encore, il s'agit là d'un endroit rêvé où nous poser, nous reposer et... nous faire à manger!
Ce complexe de villas a toutefois des allures de village fantôme: très peu habité, et on se sent seuls et isolés. Cependant, cela implique que la piscine (au bord de la mer...) est à nous seuls...
Mais revenons à la plage de Lae Mae Phim, où nous nous rendons presque à tous les jours. La plage n'est pas très large (surtout à marée haute), la mer n'est pas la plus transparente, mais c'est propre. Pas large, mais immense dans le sens de la longueur -- facilement cinq kilomètres. On propose des chaises longues pour 30 baths par jour. En semaine, c'est presque vide. Quelques scandinaves font cependant acte de présence (on dit que le roi de Suède possède des terrains dans le coin, ce qui a causé l'attrait pour les vacanciers Suédois et Finlandais qui sont de loin les étrangers les plus nombreux.) En fin de semaine, des Thaïs de Bangkok viennent en vacances.
Le nombre de restaurants avec vue sur la mer est étonnant. On y propose en effet bon nombre de fruits de mer à déguster en savourant un coucher de soleil si désiré (attention aux moustiques qui sont étonnamment légion au crépuscule). C'est bon, frais, mais pas nécessairement toujours donné.
L'atmosphère est en effet tranquille. Nous ne connaissons pas les autres plages de Thaïlande, mais vous serez déçus si vous cherchez des activités autres que vous allonger sur une chaise, profiter du soleil et d'une plage tranquille sans grand touristes, manger du poisson frais en sirotant un occasionnel cocktail...
Pour nous, c'était ce qu'il nous fallait.
À noter, s'il se trouve des amateurs de plongée en apnée dans les environs, je recommande chaudement une excursion d'une journée vers Koh Talu, dans le parc national de Koh Samet. Féérique, quoiqu'un peu cher.
Merci pour ce recit .
Juste une petite question : avez vous un vehicule pour vous rendre au ..."centre ville" = le secteur de plage avec les restaurants à poissons ?
Je n avais pas vu de songthaew ou de taximotos passer .
Excellente question... nous nous posions la même avant d'arriver!
J'ai oublié d'en traiter plus haut, mais en effet, on peut oublier de se fier sur un taxi ou un songthaew pour se déplacer. Il semble y avoir un service d'«autobus» local qui passe le long de la plage, mais bonne chance pour trouver des renseignements sur la fréquence (qui semble au mieux erratique) et les itinéraires.
Nous avons pour notre part loué une moto adjointe d'une «remorque latérale» (à défaut d'un meilleur terme) consistant en une plateforme surmontée d'un auvent et dotée d'un banc en «L». On a réussi à s'entasser à sept sur la chose! Côté vitesse, on ne se risque pas au-delà de 40 à l'heure. Pour parcourir les 5km qui nous séparent du «centre-ville» (!) cependant, c'est bath!

Je suis aussi de cet avis. Il reste encore des endroits sympas à Koh Chang. Plages pas spectaculaires mais certainement plus tranquilles que Koh Samui, Pan Ngan ou Phuket.
En plus c'est tout près du Cambodge, vous pouvez même trouver des bateaux ou des trajets depuis l'île vers le Cambodge.
Si vous louez un scooter ou une moto; savez-vous conduire ces engins ? Avez-vous un permis international ? Portez-vous un équipement adapté ? Avez-vous attaché la jugulaire du casque ? Un deux-roue est léthal pour un conducteur inexpérimenté.

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 24: Phnom Penh
March 25: Phnom Penh
March 26: Depart for Kampot
March 27: Kampot
March 28: Depart for Battambang

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

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!
