Thailand is the country that tourist known as
Cheap
Good street food
A lot of temple
Exotic beach
Friendly local people
There are certain things that you can do and get the most out of your time and money here.
I have been thinking awhile about what to recommend people who will visit Thailand for 2 weeks.
Initially, I want to make a program to compare with self travelling and compare programs if they travel by them own or buy a tour package which one is cheaper. I started to write and found it is difficult to explain and sometime hard to tell the price per person since it depends on number of travellers. Even I know the cost of travelling in those packages, but the number of visitors will varies and make it hard to compare.
So what should I do to recommend the cost of travelling for 2 weeks in Thailand?
To make it easy, I think it started with program of travel that l like.
So as people who make a living off create a tour, I would like to recommend programs like this for oversea friend who will visit Thailand which the program will be a combination like this.
Comfortable travelling idea
- stay overnight in 3 star hotel not guest house, not share room of the hostel
- Using domestic flight or overnight train, I do not recommend travel with an overnight bus.
Relaxing on the beach for 3-5 days before going back home
Add activities/tour during staying in the main city to make exploring the city easier
Enjoy some good food or cooking class since I think Thai food is worth trying and experience
Trip schedule should not be too tight with activities so it should be relaxing some
Average spending should be around 100-150 USD/ Day for domestic travel. Where do I get this number from, I check the rate of group tour of online travel agent. I found that average spending on famous trip sales around 100-150 USD/Day/person. So lets keep this number and see how can I work on this.
Program suite for 1-5 visitors, which is only for small group travelling
