Answer summary
You can obtain a 60-day tourist visa from the embassy in Athens and then apply for a 30-day extension at the Koh Samui immigration office before the end of your initial visa period. It's important to note that extensions can only be applied for during the last week of your current visa. This option is convenient and allows you to stay in Thailand for a total of 90 days without having to leave the country.

When going to Thailand for 31 - 60 ( 90 )days, the 60 days touristvisa is the best option.

It is cheaper than visaexcempt + 30 days extension.

No need of a onward ticket ( 90 days 1 onward ), only the returnticket within 60 days.

It is easy to apply from the comfort of your home.

Not wasting holiday time to find, go to and waiting at a immigration office ( 90 you would need that ).

No need to leave Thailand in up to 90 days.

If staying 31 to 60 days only the return ticket is needed.

Tourist visas can apply one time for a 30 day extension. Note that Koh Samui immigration only allows you to apply for a tourist extension during the last week of your stamp.
