5. Bangkok & onwards to Khao Sok

We checked out of our hotel and had most of the day to kill before going to our transfer in the evening, so decided to head to Chatuchak market. We took the train up and had an explore around one of the biggest markets in the world! We brought a few bits trying not to splurge and then have to carry everything for the next few months. Honestly if we spent £100 there we would come out with suitcases full. We are both contemplating bringing an extra suitcase back as we will probably fly home from Bangkok! ✈️ We walked through a massive garden part of the market which was awesome and had some (not so nice) food before heading back to our hotel and getting a taxi to our bus departure.

Enroute we passed many of the sites of Bangkok passing the grand palace which we visited last year. When we arrived at the check in it was on Khaosan road which is a crazy party street, we dropped our bags went for a beer and some food here before our 16 hour overnight transfer.

We booked a VIP bus which wasnt that VIP but both managed to have a fairly good nights sleep.Read more
