Yes its great but its some kind of acid I think We were geting it done on Phi Phi and the woman spilt it on her leg big panick to get it cleaned off ASAP.

If you get one of the cutter blades they use a soak in hot soapy water gets the same results just takes a little longer

I am with losing_touch on that one. You should be able to get at least 4 hours on that hotel bed and I would choose that. Otherwise, bring a therma-rest to lay out on the floor and a cable lock to lock your bags (and bags locked shut) to an airport chair. Maybe you can get some rest at the airport.

Best of luck,

My friends and I are staying in Koh Tao and have to get from there to Koh Samui to fly out at 11.30am, however there are no boats that leave Koh Tao before 9.30 and get to Samui at 11.30 (which is obviously too late). I was just wondering if anyone has any experience with the ferries/boats between these islands. Are there any private boats that go that far, to Samui? Or any other tips or ideas for what we can do? Thanks so much in advance!

Probably yes. Monsoon season inside the Gulf of Thailand usually runs September-January (with the wettest months usually October/November) so statistically you run a higher risk of rain. In the years I've lived/travelled in Thailand, I've experienced and read of many tourists struggling to find sunny weather in that region/season. Rain-wise, you probably should stick to the west coast. The Gulf…

I want to fly from Koh Samui to Kuala Lumpur. I've been googling away and can only come up with one airline that flies from Koh Samui to Kuala Lumpur - Berjaya Air and it's only twice a week. Anyone have other ideas?

Hello....

I've never been to either, but is there any ferry service etc or what is my best bet to get from Samui to Koh Chang. Not too sure on the distance.

Also, does any recommend the elephant programs on Koh Chang.

Thanks !

As a regular traveller to Thailand I thought that I'd share this with anyone who is interested or who will be dinning out with a group of people. On our last trip a few months ago we decided to take our parents with us along with a few friends so there were about 7 of us eating out. We stayed in Lamai and this happened in a few restaurants. We ordered our food & a few drinks each and checked bin and when the bill came we paid it, no problem. However one of our friends had heard of by some…

But the monsoon might not be as tame as you think, the sea might be rough, making the journey there and snorkelling/diving trips tough...
