Six days to visit Chiang Mai, Thailand

Leaving from Krabi, unless you fly direct to visit Chiang Mai, you have to make a stop over in Bangkok. We took the bus there but when we arrived into Bangkok, we'd thought we try out the train from there to Chiang Mai which, in my opinion, is much better than the bus.

Ko Samet Beaches – Thailand
