Sightseeing Mae Hong Son

In Thailand, it is possible to go on a backpacking tour and never talk to a local! Whilst this may suit some people, along with some locals, there are still abundance who are seeing for an adventure and a taste of the local lifestyle. In this narrative we will look at the five top backpacker destinations in Thailand to help you plan your trip.

Ko Pha Ngan. Although the beach here is legendary there’s much more to do than simply lie around on the sand. You can drift from beach to beach if you wish as there are over a dozen to pick from, but with a minute more effort it’s worthwhile exploring the interior jungle where you will find waterfalls and miles of hiking tracks. You can stay for a few days in luxurious chamber or go a bit downmarket and stay for a join of weeks.
Ko Tao. This is probably Thailand’s top destination for scuba divers. The crystal clear water and the remarkable coral reef make this one of the world’s most popular places to gain a scuba licence. It is also very cheap and you can have a admittedly awesome holiday here whilst doing a minute company on the side.
Sangkhlaburi. This involving Bordertown is the only place in Thailand where you will see such a diverse ethnic spectrum. Each of the Burmese, Non, Karen, Thai and Lao inhabitants insist on speaking their own language but if English is your native tongue it won’t make much of a divergence anyway. Although it is bereft of most of the tourist trappings you may become used to in other parts of Thailand, you can relax and watch the fishing boats on the lake and simply relax and immerse yourself into an unusual part of the country.
Khao Sok National Park. This unusual National Park is a welcome divergence to the sand and jungle that shrouds most of Thailand. You can walk alone through the thick rainforests and stand in awe of the waterfalls splashing over limestone cliffs. It is simply breathtaking.
Mae Hong Son Province. Located in the deep north west of Thailand, the province is mostly mountain and forest. It has been a private jewel until the last join of years as more tourists, prominently backpackers, have become aware of this “off the beaten track” destination. Without saying any more, make yourself a promise and visit this remote part of Thailand.

Remember to organise your holiday insurance before arriving in Thailand and take the time out to visit at least one of these unusual destinations for the trip of a lifetime.
