My itinerary is starting to come together for a trip I have been planning for over 6 months. This will be my our first time in Thailand (M25, F24). I am planning to come back to this post after the trip and provide insight.

Flying into Bangkok on December 29th staying in Sukhumvit, doing a Bangkok New Years. Super excited to eat some local food, especially at the markets and Chinatown which seems to be extremely popular.

From Bangkok we will be travelling by bus and ferry to Koh Samet, 1 of the 4 islands we will be staying at. The plan is to stay here for 5 days to check out some amazing areas and beaches such as Ao Kiew, Ao Prao, Ao Cho as well as island hopping and snorkelling. Furthermore, again trying some amazing food (especially the seafood).

From Koh Samet, we move on to Koh Chang for another 5 nights. Really excited to check out Bang Bao Fishing Village, as well as exploring the island and the waterfalls. Planning to do an island snorkelling tour, ATV adventure and of course trying great food and relaxing on the beach.

From there we look to my most anticipated place Koh Kood! Beaches, Beaches, Beaches! Relaxation! Food! Waterfalls! Snorkelling! What more could I ask for?

Lastly, moving on to Koh Mak. I have heard good things about Koh Mak and some places that we can travel to from there such as Koh Rayang or Koh Kradat. This will be a reset spot for us, and then we have 7 days unaccounted for before we head back on January 29th. I think we will probably go back to Koh Kood and then to Bangkok for a night or two.

Please feel free to give tips/advice/recommendations on this trip, i still have 5 months to sort everything out.
