I'll put this here rather than in the questions sub-forum so that you may recount the best things in Thailand you've see or done, things that are unique or fun, but most of all memorable, so that if you are only in Thailand once or never return again you can say to yourself you were glad you went.

Doing three chicks at the same time all night long, an experience not to be missed

5 sir^^

ItsRobsLife · 27-12-2009, 07:04 PM

Okay, that's memorable but hardly unique to Thailand.

How about something outside the bedroom.

Smug Farang Bore · 27-12-2009, 07:09 PM

I don't really make a very good tourist unless you like the inside of a bar.

Nothing comes to mind

Smug Farang Bore · 27-12-2009, 07:17 PM

ERRRRRRRRRRRMMMM..............Nope.

good2bhappy · 27-12-2009, 07:17 PM

taking the robe on Doi Inthanon?

November Rain · 27-12-2009, 09:44 PM

OK, Rob, I'll play along, unlike these other pisstake merchants (not you G2B). Time your visit to coincide with Songkran & join in with the festivities (preferably not in KSR, though). Eeeerrm , that & Loy Krathong are all I can think of. All the other memorable experiences I had were either not unique to Thailand, or were things that most people wouldn't do/get to do, anyway.

Sdigit · 27-12-2009, 09:49 PM

So basically you are agreeing with us then NR, there really is little to do outside the bars and the bed

Spin · 27-12-2009, 10:17 PM

Reverse Dutch steamboat and a ride on the river taxi in Bangkok.

slackula · 27-12-2009, 10:35 PM

Play golf at the Ratchanaburi army course. Late afternoon the millions of bats coming out of the caves for a feed is stunning.

Loy Kratong is nice, but I would avoid everything around Songkran unless you are upcountry.

Songkran is all about the money and the accidents in the tourist areas

Bats sound like they're worth a watch mate

crazy dog · 28-12-2009, 12:55 AM

The best thing to do in Thailand is go and see a really good luktung or morlam concert, beats anything. Went to one today with Mangpor and an old singer called chia man cing who has been at it for almost 50 years, in a wheelchair now bless him, the result of a stroke. Lots of great dancing costumes, it was on TV, yesterday even saw the PM singing at a concert even if he did forget the words.
Bit of a contrast tonight as somebody took me to the upmarket pent club near the Uk embassy, was looking forward to it as I thought the gals would be rather special, well the barfines are 6200 baht for the dancers! I was bored stiff the whole time and was very surprised how ugly and crude most of the girls where, what do people see in these money drains. Anyhow any girlie place is boring to me these days upmarket or not, concerts are far more fun.

Even upcountry

Here, near Chiang Mai I stock food and drink for 10 days and I not venture outside more than to the nearest thai shop 300m away. They are really mad.

English Noodles · 28-12-2009, 06:24 PM

Ride around the Mai Hong Son Loop, with as many stops as possible.

Rock climbing in Krabi, especially Tonsai Beach.

Similan Islands scuba diving.

Fishing at khao laem dam (Kanchanaburi).

An argument with a policeman about a supposed driving offence.

Marmite the Dog · 28-12-2009, 07:04 PM

Buy your first motorbike then do 1,750 kms around Thailand with your true love on the back.
