Hi all,
I’m planning to visit Thailand in the last week of January. I’m going there with my wife, so no bang-bang and we’ll be spending most of our time in Phuket and Pattaya. We’re planning to plan the trip on our own without going for MMT or any other packages. I’m looking for advice on the below things:
- Best way to cover Phi Phi islands, Krabi island and James bond island. Can all of these be covered in 1-2 days?
- Best place for tiger petting? Not tiger really, But tiger cubs.
- Any site offering deals for local activities in Thailand? Like we have Nearbuy in India. I know someone had posted a site in this forum on a similar thread some time back. Could not find it now.
Thanks.

code-word is boom-boom, remember it u may need this in emergency 
@prithvirao17 First of all, I don’t understand why you’d want to visit both Pattaya as well as Phuket in the same trip, especially since you are going with your wife. They both are quite different and are far apart from each other. I would recommend you to stick to Phuket and the nearby islands.
(1) Yes, all three islands you have mentioned could easily be visited over one or two days. I recommend taking a ferry/speedboat from Phuket to Phi Phi and then on to Krabi. If you are short on time then you can even visit the James Bond island on the same day.
(2) Tiger Kingdom in Phuket.
(3) Both Groupon and Ensogo got shut down recently and I am not aware of any other local deals site for Thailand.
Moreover, see the following threads where people have discussed Thailand trips.

We like to explore places and it does not matter what we have there. We’re pretty broad minded and don’t mind going to some go-go bars (just to see though 
). We also want to party a bit and check out some cabaret shows
I’ll be in Thailand for about 7 days. How many days will we need in each place?

The thread is brimming with good info. @19 Female Gurgaon @DealSeeker
PS: Don’t know when it will come in handy. Just hope sooner than later.
Amen!

@prithvirao17 so how was your trip ?
I’m leaving next week. I’ve done most of the bookings already.
hotels from goibibo
Activities from hotels2thailand
phuket tours from phukettoursdirect
I’ll update in about 20 days when i return 
To anyone who has been to Thailand, Do we need an IDP to ride a 2 wheeler or will the indian driving license be enough?
Refer- I’m going there with my wife, so no bang-bang !
Correction : No bang-bang outside.
Inputs from my side, though in hurry :-
And book 4+ star hotel if possible. Star rated hotels are cheaper in Thailand compared to India.
May you have a lovely time with your love.
