Travel info request: Phuket, Maya Bay, Bangkok, Pattaya

Question by Sael :

Hello,

I would like to know what transport to take from Phuket airport to Patong (time/price)

Is the island of Maya Bay open during this period?

I will arrive on Bangkok suvarnabhumi at 02h45 am, is there any transport at this time to get down to Pattaya (time/price) and the famous walking street it closes at what time?

I would like to do a lot of exploring in Chiang Mai over 3 days. Would you have a hotel that is not too expensive to recommend to me (and what activities are available in the area)?

Thank you for all the information you will give me.

Have a nice day

Hello Sael,

For transport in Phuket see :
How to get from Phuket airport to Patong and other places?

For Maya Bay: the beach is closed indefinitely.

For Pattaya : How to get from Bangkok to Pattaya?

Maybe the best solution for you, if you don't want to wait 3 hours for the first bus, is to take a taxi.

The walking street is a pedestrian street, it doesn't close, it's like asking me what time the Avenue des Champs Elisée closes!

But it's a busy street all night long.

For Chiang Mai, there are many activities and hotels, you can visit these pages:
