Thailand – detailed guide 3/3 – Koh Tao and Koh Samui
Beautiful and dangerous. This is how the islands of Koh Samui, Koh Phangan, and Koh Tao in the Gulf of Thailand could be characterized. The trio of the most famous islands is complemented by the marine national park Ang Thong National Park. You can read about how to rent a scooter, arrange a boat trip around the island, get your broken leg treated, or experience New Year's Eve on one of them in the third part of our comprehensive Thailand guide.

In Thailand, you can truly let yourself go. Beautiful beaches, rainforests, amazing food, massages, and incredibly kind people. Everyone will find something for themselves here. The cost of living is significantly lower than in our capital city, so it is an ideal place for a longer vacation. Check out a selection of photos from our 17-day trip to Thailand.
Thailand – detailed guide 2/3 – Khao Sok
Khao Sok National Park is the largest national park in southern Thailand and is a remnant of a rainforest that is older and much more diverse than the Amazon rainforest. Beautiful sandstone and shale cliffs tower above Cheow Lan Lake up to heights of 300 to 600 meters. The park traverses a limestone mountain range from north to south with the highest point reaching 950 meters. Compared to tourist areas like Krabi and Phuket, you will appreciate the divine peace and romantic setting in the pristine nature.
Thailand – detailed guide 1/3 – Krabi
Thailand is now a symbol of cheap exoticism for the Western world. Food, attractions, roaming around the country can be afforded at below-average European prices. We have planned our 17-day trip along the route Krabi - Khao Sok - Koh Tao - Koh Samui with a mandatory stop in the controversial Bangkok on the way back.
