Travelling to Bangkok & Koh Tao in June 2013

Hi All,

I with two of my friends are traveling to Bangkok & Koh Tao from 8th June 2013.

W start our trip from Mumbai, we reach Bangkok on 8th June and go onward to Koh Tao for our scuba diving courses.

We'll be back in Bangkok on 12th June.

Anybody interested to meet up can reply back.

Advise on what must to do in Bangkok and Koh Tao are welcome.

Cheers!!!!

Hi Gaurav,
I don't know Koh Tao but I know Bangkok pretty well - I don't know your age group or what you like to do (or how much time you're spending there), but there's lots to see and do in Bangkok. Pls see the attached post for a list of my highlights:

If you're planning to take the Open Water diving course, you'll need at least 4 days to complete it. If your way back from Koh Tao involves a flight, you'll need at least 18 hours after the course before you can fly.

Even if you don't have enough time to take a course, you can always do Fun Dives, where the instructor gives you the basics and you can do some limited dives.

Koh Tao is a great place to dive. Enjoy!

Ah, Discover Scuba Diver will work for you with a short trip.

No need to post here for someone else to join you on the pub crawl. You'll be meeting a bunch of people on it!
