[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thank you, PP! Lots of great ideas. Too many places to see, not enough time.

Do you think Chiang Mai can be substituted for Angkor wat in your itinerary? Of course, the complication is that there are no direct flights between koh  Samui and Siem Reap so that will add travel time…[/quote]

Sure, though yep you’ll have to change planes probably in BKK which isn’t a terribly big deal as the flight times are quick.

Angkor is great although unless you have a serious interest in the complex you’ll probably be done after one tour day. Most guidelines say spend 2-3 days touring there which I think is way too much.

I’d probably still stick with Chiang Mai instead.

You also don’t have to go to Koh Samui - there’s a bunch of similar places in the region. Probably figure out your nightly budget and then find a hotel that matches your budget and interests. For a beach vacation, a lot are pretty interchangeable and the hotel will be just as important as the location. (Love the Conrad Koh Samui and Como Point Yamu in Phuket).

The idea to go into mainland China isn’t a bad one if you have any interest in traveling there. Make sure you understand the visa rules though. [/quote]
