Thailand getting around travel

TRAVEL BY AIR

Thai Airways is the main domestic airline and airfares for flights within Thailand are fairly reasonably priced, the schedules are good with lots of flights to the most popular destinations. Further, the planes are generally in good condition. Thai Airways flies to most parts of the country, but not quite all. The notable exception of where Thai does not fly is the tropical paradise of Ko Samui.  There is only one airline which flies between Ko Samui and Bangkok and that are Bangkok Airways who I believe own the airport at Samui.  The fare to fly from Bangkok to Ko Samui on Bangkok Airways is more expensive than the fare on Thai to fly from Bangkok to Phuket, something which many people question, with some feeling that Bangkok Airways really stings you when you fly between Bangkok and Ko Samui.  Bangkok Airways also flies to some neighboring countries as well as operating domestic flights within Thailand, but it is the route to Ko Samui for which they are most famous.  Bangkok Airways has tried to reposition themselves and now markets themselves as Asia's boutique carrier.  This paragraph is sponsored by airline Hajj tour from UK.

TRAVEL BY CAR

Hiring cars or even a big bike is one way to get around Thailand.  The quality of the roads in Thailand is generally pretty good. Car rental is fairly cheap in Thailand which is a little surprising given that the cost of buying a car in Thailand is much dearer than in the West. Generally, driving in provincial Thailand is easy, the drivers are less aggressive, there is much less traffic - and the further you get from Bangkok, the less traffic and congestion you find.  However, wherever you go, signs are generally in Thai only.  In a few places, and Pattaya is one exception, some road signs are in Thai. Fortunately street signs are in both Thai and English nationwide, something which I have been extremely impressed with. Petrol in Thailand is reasonably priced and as at March 2007, the price is around 26 baht a liter for the highest grade, 95 octane petrol.

HIGH-LOW SEASONS, THERE’S NONE SO SERIOUS DIVISIONS:

The tourist high season runs from around late November through to mid April.  At certain times, particularly Christmas, New Year, the Chinese New Year and Songkran the most popular beaches and islands can be extremely busy to the point that getting accommodation can become a bit of a problem.  Hotels and even some guesthouses hike their prices - and people are willing to pay it.  So if you are travelling over any of these periods it pays to book well in advance. The Songkran period really marks the end of the tourism high season for the year. There are a number of other holidays throughout the year and on some of these holidays nightlife areas and bars and discos can be closed - and the sale of alcohol is outlawed.  Some bars slip the boys in brown a bit of cash so they can remain open.  Generally speaking it is the Buddhist holidays and December 5th, the birthday of HM The King.

Costa Rica Sun Light

In Central America, just south of Nicaragua and north of Panama is Costa Rica.  Costa Rica has the Caribbean Sea to the east and the Pacific Ocean on the west side.  Therefore, the majority of Costa Rica's borders, sixty-five percent, are coastline. 

Although a relatively small area, about the size of Vermont and New Hampshire combined, it has everything one could want in a vacation.  Beautiful white sand beaches, great surf, active volcanoes, natural hot springs, and towering rain forests are just some of the sites in Costa Rica.  Site seeing in the area is relatively simple via rental car or public bus.  This paragraph is sponsored by Makah and Medina tour from UK.

A number of the principal mountain ranges are volcanic, and visitors can easily visit many of these areas.  In the province of Cartago, for example, which is not far from the capital of San José, you will find Irazú volcano, which erupted in the early sixties.  Poás volcano, located in the province of Alajuela, has one of the largest active craters in the world.  In addition, Arenal volcano, in the northwestern region, delights thousands of visitors each year to a constant stream of red, hot lava rocks tumbling down its slopes.

Picturesque forests grow in the crater of the dormant Brava in Heredia.  Arenal, a young volcano in the northern part of the country is constantly active (and is the site of a spa with natural hot springs).  The country's highest peak, Mount Chirripó, is not volcanic; it measures 12.412 feet.  On a clear day one can see both the Pacific and Atlantic oceans from atop Mt. Chirripo.

The capital of Costa Rica is San José and is a good starting place for exploring the country.  It is conveniently located in the center of the country and all the bus lines stop here.  The port of Limon on the Caribbean Coast has quite a different atmosphere from the capital.  Life is easy going on the Caribbean coast compared to the city life in San Jose. This paragraph is sponsored by Umrah guide 2014 from UK.

San José is located in the Central Valley region of the country.  Evenings in San José can be cool do to the high altitude, but you will not forget that you are in a tropical place even in this bustling city.  The city itself is busy and filed with traffic.  There are many things to do, but travelers often miss these sites choosing instead to head straight from the airport to beaches or rainforests.  Although San José is not the most beautiful city in the world, it is generally safe and has a lot to offer tourists.
