Thailand is a place of excitement, fun and education, all mixed in one. Ubon Ratchathani is one the most beautiful regions in East Thailand. The gorgeous national parks on one side and the authoritative historical monuments on the other speak volumes of the city. With such amazement in store, the majority of tourists find it inconvenient to explore the city with a normal travel package. Customizing your travel package is a good option. With a customized travel package, you are the one who decide what to visit and where to stay. Today, more and more people are interested to drive through the city and explore the beauty of it in their own way. This is why car rent ubon is increasingly gaining prominence in recent times.

Before renting a car in ubon, do a good research on services offered by the car rental agencies. Check if the cars available are luxurious, well maintained and insured. Check out the prices and packages. Do no compromise on flexibility and convenience. You should be able to rent the car any time during the day and from any place. At the same time, you should be able to return the car during the same day too.

Car rent ubon is simple and easy. You need to produce an identity proof and pay an advance of around 2000-3000 Baht, based on the model of the car you choose. A photocopy of your driving license or passport would be enough. As soon as you get down at the airport, you can pick the car and start exploring the city in your own style. One thing to keep in mind is to book everything in advance as Thailand is a place wherein tourists love to visit, throughout the year. If you are not quick enough, you might end up losing exciting moments of your life.

Travelling on a fixed group tour can be hard and stressful. All personal wished are less important than the schedule of the full group, giving very little space to the individual. We have all tried it. When some exciting appears the bus has to depart, or when you want to go to the toilet there is always some time until the next stop.

In Thailand there are so many exciting things to explore. But to explore them the optimal way, make sure you book a private tour in Thailand. The private tour makes sure that the itinerary is created based on your wishes, and that your tour  in Thailand will be a tour to remember.

When selecting a travel agency make sure that you select one that is engaged in the local culture, and that they have employees that understands your culture and background as well as speaking your language.
Travel Isaan is a company just like that. Their staff with both Thai and Western nationals gives you the assurance that both the local culture and you as the customer will be a priority.

The area of Ubon Ratchathani and Isaan gives you many amazing sites. The national parks of Phataem and Kaeng Tana, the grand canyon of Thailand called Sam Phan Bok, the Phanom Rung Historical Park, and many more. The North East part of Thailand is truly amazing when it comes to culture and nature.

Next time you take a tour in Thailand, make sure it’s a private tour. It will give you so much more in terms of experiences, culture, relaxation and make sure that YOU are in charge of the events.

Koh Samui is Thailand’s second biggest island. It has a population of about 55,000 and has a history dating back 15 centuries. Considering this long history it might come as a surprise that the island only became a holiday destination in the 1970s.

Since those first backpacker days, things have changed a lot on Koh Samui. It now has an airport, good infrastructure, excellent hospitals and dentists, a professional golf course and big supermarkets. For anyone who wants an Asian beach holiday, but doesn’t like to slum it Koh Samui is ideal. It has beautiful beaches at Chaweng, Lamai and Bophut that have plenty of mid-range and luxury resorts.

There are also a few wellness resorts in Koh Samui. The standout place in this category is the Kamalaya on Laem Set beach. It gives wellness consultations on arrival and departure and has lessons in everything from yoga to Pilates. It has also has private pool villas.

Brand name hotels are also present on Koh Samui. There’s the recently opened Conrad Koh Samui at Laem Set and the Renaissance Koh Samui in Lamai managed by Marriot.

At the same time there are plenty of smaller hotels and resorts owned locally that have communal pool and rooms with air-con, hot water, TV and fridge. Such places can be booked for about $50 a night.

Whereas Chaweng and Lamai are brash, loud and varied both during the day and night, the small area around Bophut called Fisherman’s Village has boutique cafes, restaurants and bars many of which are housed in traditional wooden houses. This is an area free of the so-called ‘beer bars’.

Other beaches in the south of Koh Samui are less developed. Many people prefer these beaches because they are free of the night scene and the young reveling the night away. Beaches such as Taling Ngam, Thong Tanote and Bang Kao are much more tranquil but unfortunately the beaches are not as good and the tidal difference can be extreme.

There are still many people who go back to Koh Samui every year. There is also a sizeable ex-pat community in Koh Samui. Many go to Koh Samui for the wellness programs, the annual Samui Jazz Festival and the nightlife. The backpackers have mostly moved on to other islands.
