As others have said, if you've booked already 94 days is not ideal. One option, if you're over 50 is the o-a visa if you really want to remain in thailand the whole time and don't want to bother with immigration visits. The best alternative would probably be 60 day tourist, a few days in Vietnam or Cambodia and then re-enter again on visa exempt

Hoi an near Da Nang in Vietnam is very nice for a few days as well

i'm not sure what the costs are in Canada but you'd probably be looking at about $200 for the o-a visa and $40 for the tourist visa. O-A also requires a medical and a police check which will cost you. All for essentially just 3 days. I'd personally think the money would be better spent on a few day at Angkor Watt or similar

So you have the money in cash? Just get their bank account details and pay it in at the counter. Not really a transfer if you have it in cash

@Clarissa ****
yeah, just get their bank details, go into a branch and make the deposit

@Evan ******
not really as you can use it at places that take visa/MC with no additional fees and you'll have locked in the exchange rate thats good for you. Some banks charge foreign transaction fees when using their cards in any circumstances

Yes it is and also you only can withdraw limited amounts from an ATM with Wise each month before they charge themselves

Do you have an AIS SIM already? You can go in the app and get add-ons or change the package. No need to pick up the specific SIM as advertised
