🇧🇩 🇧🇩 How is the weather in Thailand in January? I am planning to come to Thailand in January. I will stay in Bangkok for 2 days. Where can I go after that? Except Pattaya, Phuket, Karbi, Phi Phi Islands. Earlier I traveled to Chiang Mai. I had a great time.

Hi All. Trying to get some visa advice for a friend over here now. He wants to retire here in Kanchanaburi. He cant find an agent here so has thought about BKK and Pattaya or Hua Hin.

Specifically, he is 68 and wants bank account. He has 800k to deposit.

He wants to have bank acc in Kanchanaburi, and has been told an agent can do that from BKK or Pattaya or Hua Hin bank acc after opening.

He wants to register living in Kanchanaburi, on his retirement visa, and has been told agent in other places mentioned can set that up, even if done in BKK or Pattaya or Hua Hin. Is that true?

Finally the quotes have been between 37k and 65k he has the money. Are the quotes vaue for money? He has a dodgy heart so wants to make it as easy as possible, hence an agent.

Thanks

Best current (Oct/Nov 2024) border run options from Kanchanaburi, please?

Many thanks.

Staying for a few months, primarily Kanchanaburi province.

Where to purchase English style tea and teabags?

India/Ceylon origin or blends of the same, usually.

Not fond of the Liptons variety, to be honest (too weak) but haven’t seen even those apart from in almost every cafe/restaurant.

No joy at 7/11, Lotus or TMK.

Got the last pack (discontinued line) at Big-C Kanchanaburi.

Appreciate any advice.

Thanks in advance.

Need to do my first ever border-run at the end of the month.

Because of my location (Kanchanaburi) being about as far from a suitable border as can be, am considering using an agent, instead of undertaking the trip myself. If that's possible.

Do agents perform that for people?

If so, what's the likely cost and procedure?

How do I find a trustworthy agent?

Anything else I should be aware of?

Experienced help and advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

I want to take my driving license here in thailand I have all the necessary documents. Is there any recommended agencies/organizations that can assist me with a fast track option, thanks.

Please from Kanchanaburi is it possible to get a big bus to Chiang mai.

What’s the best way to get from Kanchanaburi to Phetchaburi?

What’s the best way to get from Bangkok to Kanchanaburi?

Will be our first visit to Kanchanaburi, where to stay, like a few beers in the evening, anyone know a decent hotel about the 800 BHT a night, many thanks.
