Travel by water

Thailand has a unique waterway system fit for travel. If you’re planning to go around in busy Bangkok, this is your best shot at avoiding traffic jams. Traveling by water during your Thailand holidays is also effective in avoiding pollution.

Study the water routes through a map especially if this is your first time to try it. If possible, check with available stations to know their exact destinations. Using the map, try to know how far or near this stopover is from the area you’re visiting. These steps will help you know if you need to walk or take a short ride later.

Ask your hotel or villa receptionist too about boat rides. Inquire about possible stops and fares too. These people can help you pay exact fares to avoid confusion. While you’re at it, don’t forget to write the name and number of your hotel or resort. Getting lost is easy but finding your way back can be hard. By knowing the phone number, you can later phone the hotel for instructions on how to get back.

Shop around

Holidays to Thailand will never be complete without going on a shopping spree. Before you do this, however, it’s best to know where the shopping centres are. Check the Internet to know exact locations of malls and open markets. This will save you time and help you avoid crowded places.

You must consider several things to find an ideal villa rental. Thailand holidays will not be complete without an equally cool place to stay after a fun-filled day. Check out the following tips when choosing your Thai villa.

Date of the trip

The first thing to consider is your travel date. Remember that travel seasons affect the availability and rates of rooms and accommodations. February to November, for instance, is peak season. Thousands of local and foreign tourists visit various locations in the country. Searching for a villa rental in Thailand tourist destinations during this season can be hard. The Songkran Festival (Thai New Year) is another busy season. Thais celebrate this event from the 13th to the 15th of April.

While these seasons are also the best time to explore the country, you must think about booking your Thai villa during off-season. This way, you will have the chance to choose from a wide variety of options. Most importantly, your reservation will help ensure you’ll get a nice place to stay.

Settled by the Romans, there is a Roman church and the Roman chapel de St Veran to explore. Tennis, hiking and walking are all offered in profusion and there are annual festivals in mid June, mid July and throughout much of August, which of course are the busiest time of year down here. You can also visit the Priory ND de Les Lumières. Perhaps not so welcome to those seeking the peace and quiet traditionally associated with a trip to Provence is the opportunity for motocross, however I am told it is well away from the village and does not impinge on the quintessentially Provencal experience otherwise offered by Goult.

Nearby are some equally quaint villages, Saint Pantaléon is said by one guide-book to be where trousers were invented, but frankly I doubt it, I think if it were the case the village might make more of it. Gordes has a little more about it, with a gallery dedicated to the contemporary Flemish artist Pol Para and is designated officially as “one of the most beautiful villages in France” a title only bestowed on the top 100 pretty villages in the country. At the top of the hill upon which this village is built is the inevitable church, with fantastic views over the Provencal landscape. In the green valley behind is the Abbey de le Senanque where Cistercian monks still produce a liquour and collect lavender and honey. The village was mentioned more than once in Peter Mailes book “A Year In Provence” which has increased its visitor flow somewhat.

What To Check Before Renting A Holiday Villa:

Proximity of other villas – Some holidaymakers would rather stay secluded, while others prefer some company. If privacy is what you want, make sure to check the proximity of your villa to other villas. The holiday villa company would normally display a map with the location and nearby properties, otherwise you should ask for one.

Nearest town – You may find it useful to stock up on food, water or you may even require a chemist. Before booking your holiday, take the time to familiarise yourself with the nearest town, as it will likely have shops, restaurants, banks and so forth, all may become very useful. Otherwise or in case the nearest town is too far away, be well prepared.

Suitable transportation – If you have decide to hire a car for the duration of your stay, choose a hire car that includes a car satellite navigation or buy a local map before you arrive. Otherwise, find out about public transportation in the area.

Find out about local traditions and language – You will find it very handy to understand more about the area and people that you are about to interact with. Imagine that you are hiring a holiday villa in Portugal in an area that is less popular with mainstream tourists. In such case without knowing basic local language you may find it very hard to get by and enjoy your holiday.

List all nearest attractions – During your holiday you may want to go out and about to explore the area and its surroundings. Depending on what type of attraction will appeal to your party the most, list all the nearby attractions. If your family or partner prefers an action-full holiday, but you’ve chosen a secluded area with little or no attractions that would be a shame.
