Thailand is back…and in a big way! So now’s a perfect time to visit and travel on a budget, with famous sights still pleasantly uncrowded. Resort tourism on the islands and beaches is more expensive than traveling around the inland regions.
However, it can be a wonderfully budget-friendly place to travel either way. And you can find great value on any budget. For the best prices, go to the northern Chiang Mai region, and we promise: you’ll love it.
Amid the Buddhist temples, rice fields, and hill tribes, you can find some of the best accommodations around.
Whether you’re looking for a backpacker dorm bed, starting at $6 per night, or a quality hotel with a swimming pool, starting at $35, this affordable international getaway has something for everyone.
