This eGuide
works almost like a website, and does not need to be used along with an Internet connection (unless you want to access "OpenStreetMap" plans and other hyperlinks that we provide throughout the book, in real time).
Depending on the capabilities of your eBook reader, you can enjoy zoom features on photos. You can also click on the hypertext links (or hyperlinks) underlined throughout the eGuide. We tried our best to make your reading experience as enjoyable as possible, despite the wide technology gaps between various reading systems.
Be sure that we will propose to you more interactive versions, as the formats and eBook readers should be standardised in the future!
Well, enough chatting. Let's go!
Sincerely,
Cristina & Olivier

BUDGET Tips:
Plane tickets
Depending on your country of origin, the tips can be different to have cheaper flight tickets.
Here are some advice which may apply, no matter where you are coming from.
Tips:
Buy your tickets in advance (minimum of 3 or even 6 months before) to get the best rates so you can choose the dates of your vacation. Look for promotions from different airlines.
Do not buy your tickets at once, but test
the market first. Look for the airline companies that arrive in Bangkok - see here - and for Phuket here.
Buy your tickets towards one of these cities and then prepare your route or itinerary according to it.
Pay attention because the tickets prices may vary on every hour and without any logic. Consequently, record in a file on your computer the prices you have found for several days before making your decision. This way, you can compare and know immediately when you will have an opportunity not to be missed. You can save more than 300 €/ticket.
If possible, avoid traveling at holiday times (Christmas, New Year, etc.) to get the cheapest price for your airline tickets. If you however wish to go during these periods, schedule your departure a few days before those events.
Depending on your starting point, try the following airlines to have more chances to get good prices: Finnair, Qatar airways, Emirates, Lufthansa, Air France, Thai airways. We chose this time the Emirates and had a very good price.
The best time to visit Thailand is the dry season from September to March for the South. The temperature of the sea water is between 25° C and 30° C all year round.
Travelling in Thailand
Tips :
Acar rental is the most suitable way of getting around and discovering Thailand.
Pay attention: it is necessary to guarantee the car rental with a credit card. Make your reservation on the Internet because the price difference is big, even doubles, if you take the vehicle at the airport without preliminary reservation.
Accommodation
You have plenty of choices in terms of accommodation. Everything depends on your budget.
Tips:
For families travelling with children the cheapest variant remains the guesthouses
. There are rooms from 5 euros / night.
If you want more comfort, you need a budget of minimum 800 baht (20 euros) / night / double room. In hotels there are family rooms if you are travelling with children.
Food & Restaurants
The Thai cuisine is very varied and tasty. If you are not familiar with it, you will surely love it.
There are a few restaurant chains that are truly worth. The first one I recommend is "Hot pot" that you find in shopping malls. It is a very
