What a journey. 15 hours stuck on the smallest minibus in the world plus 15 people and their luggage this has deffinatly won the prize for most cramped bus trip, however we are here, country number 3 and ready for tubing. Here we met up with James, Jay, Jack, Jo and Zoe, the group we met on a trip in Phi Phi. As we walked down the road to the guest house, they were walking up to get their tubes. We booked in at the same place they did called Grand View Guesthou...

Chiang, Cha Chiang Chiang Maiiii (as James sings) Well what a long journey to get here, it took a 2 hour boat trip, 3 hour bus trip, an overnight bus and a 13 hour train through the day. Saying that it really wasnt that bad, suprisingly we both slept really well on the overnight bus. We arrived in Bangkok at 6.30am and then got the 8.30am train to Chiang Mai rather than the overnight train as we would of been sitting about in Bangkok all day. The train ride was a...

Because of the weather in Krabi we didnt have high expectations of the weather in Phi Phi. The ferry ride was very dark, rough and agin terrential downpour so not the best boat trip. We stayed at Up Hill Cottage. Itr was cheap but abit of a trek up the mountain buit should get us into shape for the trak in chiang mai. The weather wasnt great so when we arrived we went to explore the island. There are no cars on the island and are able to walk from one side of the...

From Koh Tao we took the ferry to Surithani followed by a 3 hour bus ride to Krabi town. We are starting to run out of days to fit everything in so cut it down to 2 nights. Rather than stayin in Ao Nang by the beach we stayed in Krabi town at Krabi guest house for only 300bht a night. Our room was huge, just a shame about the ants in the bed, they obviously loved the whini the pooh bedding as much as we did! That evening we met a lost little 18 year old from can...

We were both so excited for our few days of detox and diving in Koh Tao. We had booked a 4 day and 4 night open water diving course at Bans Diving resort, I think its the biggest on the island and one of the biggest dive centres in the world to learn to dive. The hotel is amazing, 2 pools beach front restaurant with loads of boats for the diving in the day. Deffinatly our most luxurious hotel so far even thought we only have a fan room. At 5.15 we met our group ...
