Bring cash as ATMs are scarce. Most local businesses close early in the evening, so plan meals and outings accordingly.
Cultural Etiquette
Dress conservatively, especially in temples. A small tip is appreciated but not required. Always greet locals with a polite 'sabaidee'.
Safety Warnings
Generally very safe, but watch for stray dogs at night and be cautious of infrequent, poorly-lit roads after dark. Petty theft is rare but remain mindful in crowded market areas.
Hidden Gems
Explore off-the-path coffee plantations, visit Kiat Ngong wetlands, and take a boat to lesser-known Mekong islands for local village experiences.
