    Great video guys. It was really informative. If I was going to add anything I'd say that if you are planning on driving a scooter in Thailand, a IDL is great, but if you don't have a motorcycle/scooter license in the country you are from, and get into an accident, don't expect your insurance company back home to cover any costs that arises from it. An IDL only covers the type of vehicles that you drive in your home country. As for driving, I prefer renting cars which are much safer considering how crazy Thai people drive. But if you don't want to rent a car, use an app to get a ride. Better safe than sorry. My wife and I own a condo in Bangkok, and a home in Hua Hin, so we normally don't have to worry about accommodations, however, we still like to splurge on nice hotels when you first arrive in Bangkok to rest and relax after the long flights from the US. We do have checking accounts/and Thai credit cards that we use when we're there that makes life easier also, so if you can, open an account and save some money. If you do wind up renting a scooter, car, or jet ski, make sure you take pictures of whatever you rent before, and after, you leave the rental facility so you can protect yourself from scams.

    "Basic good manners", absolutely, just about sums it up, it's the key to successful interactions with anybody, practically in Asia, It works both ways and it's important to use good humour. Such a shame this seems to be so lacking in todays (Western) society. Having been to Thailand and travelled around the country on many occasions over the past twenty years I thought the advice you gave in your video was pretty spot on and you made some very accurate observations and points of the what to do and what not to do. looking forward to seeing more of your UA-cam content in the future.

    Hi guys! Stumbled across this video after researching for my short stay in Koh Lipe in April! This is all really useful information 🙌🏼
    I was wondering if you think the rabies vaccine is necessary? We are staying for a week and would intend to avoid any stray animals. Did you have any problematic encounters with dogs over your 7 month travels? 💚

    • @GoTimeTravels
      @GoTimeTravels  3 місяці тому

      Glad it was helpful! And hope you enjoy your time. It’s very difficult to say weather you should or shouldn’t, but to answer your questions we had zero issues in the 7 months. If a bite happens you will still need to visit a hospital, regardless of getting a vaccine or not. And there is no guarantees that the vaccine has any effect at all either. How often do you get bitten by an animal in your home country? thailand should be no different really. Just have common sense and you’ll be fine.

    Hi lads, how did you extend your visa when you were there? Thanks

    • @GoTimeTravels
      @GoTimeTravels  4 місяці тому +1

      Hi 👋 we had a couple of extensions while in the Thailand, you can do this at a local government office. However you are only allowed a certain number of extensions before you need to leave the country. When that happened we did a border run to Laos and back to Thailand. Just be careful doing that now because I believe they are clamping down on border runs. When we left Thailand to return home Thai officials were not happy about the border run as it was stamped on our passports. If you just need extensions then they are generally stress free and easy.

    Warnings:
    1. Don't travel throughout the country.
    2. Don't try to eat in Thailand.
    3. Don't talk too much with the local Thai ppl
    Because you will get lost in beautiful places, you will become chubby, you'll love them and finally, you'll cry when you have to leave this country and be "Bangkok Blue" when you get back to your homeland.

      But Malaysians come to Thailand because tourist places are expensive for them and that is why they have less tourists.
