    • Hi Annelize,

      It really depends on what you looking for.

      If you a solo traveler and prefer coming and going as you please instead of sticking to a set itinerary then going by yourself would suit you best.

      It is pretty safe and I know of quite a colleagues and friends who have visited Thailand on their own and met others along the way.

      However if you have limited time, I would recommend a tour if you want to see as much as possible. You would then need to see what tours you would be interested in and if they include the islands and activities you looking for.

Have something to say...
