*😎🇮🇳✈️Kushbooji, appreciate your well pre-planned trip to Thailand and detailed information will surely helpful to those who are planning to go there. Excellent home work you did and great efforts you have taken to post these videos. Congratulations !💐👍🙏*
Hey, from where did you book your island hoping tour? I'm planning to visit in November and decided for phi phi island tour but the tour you had looks lucrative, can you please suggest??
hey, I booked it from the hostel I was staying at. But I think you can go around and ask tours and operators as well... and bargain. (ask atleast 3 shops to get better idea of the deals going on in the market)
Free cards with zero forex markup - niyo global bookmyforex (these are prepaid cards) you can also consider one card (it charges 1% fees and sometimes charges nothing depending on the offers they run). It works like a credit card. apart from these other cards are from proper banks and have good amount of annual fees attached to it.
Hi, I'm not really sure. Please check with the airlines once. or you can check if the plane is landing at the same terminal from where it will take off next then no need of VISA. if terminal changes then you have to basically exit the airport, enter the country and go to the other terminal which means you require visa.
To tell you the truth they will not check. Maybe 1 out of 100 people they will check, you can take a few dollars to show some money atleast if not baht or carry the credit/debit card and bank statement. To be on the safer side.
Yes, according to the rules mentioned, you need to carry 10,000 baht or equivalent USD. But recently visiting people said nobody is checking whether you are carrying that much cash or not.
Hello, i am travelling to Thailand solo this July. Could you please help me. First of all, should I do the online visa beforehand or do it in the airport on arrival. People say you have to wait long time for the later. Also can we rent scooty service in Bangkok or is it expensive? Because i want to extensively explore Bangkok and as you said Transportation through Grab and Tuktuk maybe expensive. Also Can i skip the three island hop that you did ? Is it super worth it as compared to spending more time in Phuket ? Also is there bus service from Phuket directly to Chiangmai. I don't want to take the flight. Sorry too many questions 😅😅 but I am following your route only and also travelling for 14 days
1. on arrival is free. 2. renting a scooter in bangkok - please do have an international driving permit as bangkok is the main city and police might be there. Instead you can go for Grab bike which is budget friendly (like uber moto or ola bike) 3. you can skip the islands if you want, it was just a different side of Thailand to be honest. Phuket can be done in 1-2 days plus 1 day for phi phi island tour. So if you have time and budget consider doing both. 4. Please check here for more information on Phuket to Chiang Mai options - 12go.tp.st/Z4vUQvUG
Hi, Khushboo. Could u pls let me know which bus u traveled to and fro bangkok - Phuket ? Because i am finding the options starting with 2k to 3.5 k per seat. And thats more than 700 baht actually. Was it an overnight bus? Sleeper or semi sleeper? Thanks
Kuch b nhi puchte as such. Kabhi kabhi they will ask Reason to travel Return date Return flight ticket What do you do ? (Whats your source of income) Where are you staying today ? (To understand if you have booked your accommodation)
Hey it is 711 baht for AC semi sleeper. Then there is also VIP bus which is expensive (i guess around 1000-1100 baht). Also these prices are from last year and booked from the bus station. For current prices you can check on 12GoAsia
they don't care about license while renting. As a deposit, you have to give 3000 baht or your passport (you choose). But police care about the license, so you need international permit for that.
hey, yes it was rainy as in showers and then you can go out and enjoy. 30 mins max it is going to rain at a time. So, it is not a problem. But like I was in Phuket, night markets don't put up a lot of stalls as they expect fewer people on rainy days. (markets apart from Bangla Market). If you check out Phuket vlog, even island hopping tour got dangerous, but we returned fine. Apart from that, you can have a good time, whether you choose north or south Thailand.
hey I travelled in June end so August will be same only (monsoon month). The weather would not be a big issue as mostly you will be out in the evening only for markets, nightlife, food. (afternoon you can visit temples or shopping or chill at a cafe) But the only problem will be monsoon on the south side (phuket phi phi island ek baar dekh lena kya scene hai, Tour available hai ya nhi. Don't plan to stay at Phi Phi as you can get stuck there if it rains heavily - these things are from my research of monsoon, you do yours too.) Lastly, koh samui side utna. rain nhi hota hai so you can definitely add that. And I don't think any month is bad for travelling to Thailand, just that you have to pick the right things to match your interest and weather. I hope this helps 😊. Consider subscribing to the channel ❣️
I felt the same initially (but we did not have 3000 baht so we gave the passport everywhere.) So, it was not risky, to be honest. But always keep a photocopy of the passport with you.
hey since VISA FREE is till 10th... and you are staying a day longer.. so they can charge you the FEE. Although I am not sure, so do double check with an official website or an agency maybe.
Basic medicines you can carry. I don’t think so they check the medicines. But I am not sure. I took basic medicines with me fever, stomach upset, body pain, my other pain killer and prescribed eyedrops also. They never checked anything of that sort for me.
1. a passport with a validity for atleast next 6 months 2. you should have a return flight ticket (or a ticket for your further travels. Basically you should have a proof that you are exiting the country) 3. proof of booked accommodations for the whole trip
I am aware of the days but in this video, I have not mentioned any days regarding VISA. I don't know where you heard 2-3 days, please watch the VISA section again.
absolutely safe. As I am a solo traveller myself I could understand the place is absolutely safe and tourist-friendly (although I was not solo in Thailand but I was able to understand). I only felt a little scared once when I was walking back to my hostel late at night and nobody was on the street which would happen in any country, to be honest.
I hope our people become more sensible and start travelling to our own places in India. There are too many unexplored places here. Stop spending money on foreign countries.
I believe it’s our money and it is our wish where to travel. That being said, definitely India has amazing places and I travel both in India and outside. ❤️
I am planning to fly from Mumbai to Phuket around 27th April and return from Bangkok to Mumbai on 4th May. Currently total cost is coming out to be 33k on skyscanner. How did you get flight at such low price?
Phuket - old town - agoda.tp.st/NRPMVQDj I stayed here and I recommend it (as the lady at the reception was helpful with everything we asked for) patong beach - agoda.tp.st/47xe4Oxe agoda.tp.st/joNL8J4X Krabi - near city center - agoda.tp.st/33Y1RdcZ near beach - agoda.tp.st/k5kisyeX these are based on my research - they have great reviews on both agoda and hostelworld, but are cheaper on agoda. Hope this helps :)
hey .. no you can't. You can use whatsapp for making calls to India (just a suggestion). Otherwise, if you want to make normal calls you can get the international roaming activated on your Indian sim.
Hey if you have bought the plan particularly to call to India then you will be able to call. Otherwise also if you get talktime I guess calling to India rate is 0.6 or 1 TBH per minute.
Below are the two websites, I use to book hostels agoda - agoda.tp.st/dE3drexJ hostelworld - hostelworld.tp.st/EfQcTWHf Although Hostelworld specializes in hostels but Agoda gives you better deals on both hostels/hotels. So, you can choose your hostel by looking at reviews and ratings on Hostelworld and then you can look for prices on Agoda before booking.
Hi, the video is all about my experience and learnings through travelling Thailand. The information is not wrong, you and I might have a different style of travelling.

Hey,
Planning to travel Phuket through kuala lumpur by air asia. Same airline but might generate different PNR. Do i need to carry intransit visa?

Hi I am travelling with husband in August. Any idea if water sports is on during that time ?
I think they are on. But if it rains that day, they will discontinue for that time/day. Not 100% sure.
Great 👍🏼

how much cash can i carry from india to thailand? Is there a limit
Indian residents can carry up to Rs. 25,000 in cash while traveling abroad. There is no limit to how much foreign currency you can take out of India.
Is anyone planing to visit Thailand this September 7 or 10 sept and return 17 sept

Where are you staying today ? (To understand if you have booked your accommodation)
@@khushboo.vasudevathank passport banane ke liye Kitna Tak kharcha hoga
So Bangkok to Phuket is 800kms and they only charge 711 or around 1800rs only? I went 120km from Mathura to Barsana and they charged around 2500
Hey it is 711 baht for AC semi sleeper.
Then there is also VIP bus which is expensive (i guess around 1000-1100 baht).
Also these prices are from last year and booked from the bus station. For current prices you can check on 12GoAsia
As you travelled a lot. Can you pls suggest a good travel insurance as I am going to Singapore & Thailand
I just got digit insurance last week.
Although i heard tata aig is good to go for.
@@khushboo.vasudeva Thank you for the suggestion 😇
Please share where you stay in hostel name ?
Did your indian licence worked for scooty renting there??or did you have international permit.
they don't care about license while renting. As a deposit, you have to give 3000 baht or your passport (you choose). But police care about the license, so you need international permit for that.
You went to Thailand in June end. Was it rainy?

Is September month good to visit Thailand?
if you go there for beaches... it will not be a good experience. I think even for the north.
So if possible, skip September.
Try end of October.
I am planning to aug starting month with my wife is the wheather is good?
hey I travelled in June end so August will be same only (monsoon month).
The weather would not be a big issue as mostly you will be out in the evening only for markets, nightlife, food. (afternoon you can visit temples or shopping or chill at a cafe)

How can you keep passport wid the bike rental, isnt it risky
I felt the same initially (but we did not have 3000 baht so we gave the passport everywhere.)
So, it was not risky, to be honest. But always keep a photocopy of the passport with you.
Do i need to book a return ticket before hand?
yup. watch this for documents required - th-cam.com/users/shortsiWQ5SniHM64
Hotel accommodation proof is mandatory?
yes according to the documents required.
but immigration officer dekhega ya nhi, I can't say.
We are going on 6th may and return on 11th may. Can they charge visa fee or its free visa on arrival? Kindly share information
hey since VISA FREE is till 10th... and you are staying a day longer.. so they can charge you the FEE. Although I am not sure, so do double check with an official website or an agency maybe.
@@khushboo.vasudeva for medicine like fever, vomiting, antacid these type of medicine can we carry without prescription or its mandatory prescription?
Basic medicines you can carry. I don’t think so they check the medicines. But I am not sure.
I took basic medicines with me fever, stomach upset, body pain, my other pain killer and prescribed eyedrops also. They never checked anything of that sort for me.
@@khushboo.vasudeva thank you
For how many days trip is this budget for?
14 days.
What documents to carry???
1. a passport with a validity for atleast next 6 months
2. you should have a return flight ticket (or a ticket for your further travels. Basically you should have a proof that you are exiting the country)
3. proof of booked accommodations for the whole trip
Kitne chances hai visa free service or extended hogi??
I have no clue.
Free visa is not valid for 2-3 days its 30 days. Even the paid system is 14 day visa when you pay
I am aware of the days but in this video, I have not mentioned any days regarding VISA.
I don't know where you heard 2-3 days, please watch the VISA section again.
Is it safe a solo trip for a lady?
absolutely safe. As I am a solo traveller myself I could understand the place is absolutely safe and tourist-friendly (although I was not solo in Thailand but I was able to understand).
