... (I can't believe I'm complaining about the heat but it's been a long time coming). We arrived about 1330 and scoped out a few guest houses until we found one with the right vibe. Quiet, relaxed and friendly staff. And cheap as chips! The semi derelict ...

... it was very rural and still is in a different way – same same but different. The countryside is now covered with guest houses, huts, spas, mineral baths and 2-more elephant camps. We gladly stopped to let the elephants cross the road. When was the ...

... gorgeous surroundings, only to discover that the beauties of Luang Prabang in Laos have stolen their trade. Checking around with a half-dozen guest houses to see how we might improve our lodgings, we didn’t find any more than 1/3 full and all eager ...

... tiny little town surrounded by huge green mountains on all sides and set off to find some accommodation. After visiting a few guest houses (and getting a little worried because there were no vacancies) we found The Golden Hut Bungalows which was an ...

... zu teuer. Und es wird viel zu kalt. Mein schlechtes Gewissen hält sich in Grenzen. Ich biete mein Handy an, um alle Guest Houses anzurufen. Biete den Roller an, unseren Raum als Gepäckablage und unsere Bad. Die Mädels lachen wieder. Im Endeffekt pennen ...

... glad the journey was over when we arrived at 11am.  Pai is a nice little mountain town that has been filled with guest houses, bars, little restaurants and tourist offices.  It reminded us a little bit of Luang Prabang, but smaller.  We ...

... a reason then it is popular with other backpackers. Nestled in a valley, the town is filled with small bungalow guest houses, internet cafes, vegetarian restaurants and plenty of dreadlocked, patchwork wearing hippies. I even heard a Phish song blaring ...

... city 3 times a day. Since it is the low season there are not many people around and that makes Pai even more boring :). Most of the guest houses are only a quarter fill. Today I rented a bike again because I was getting claustrophobic and wanted to do ...

... had stayed at Bueng Pai Farm so we headed that way. At first James was worried as it was obvious that there were a lot more guest houses and developments since last time. However once we pulled into the farm we were both amazed. It had changed quite a ...

... . Now it seems like a little bit of the KSR has been dropped into a sleepy bit of Thailand and surrounded by a hoard of guest houses. Don't get me wrong though, it's lovely, by a river, in the mountains and certainly more peaceful than Bangkok or Chiang ...

... town is small and sits in a valley between a group of mountains. The Pai river runs through the town and there are many guest houses along the river and in the town itself.  Folks go out for rides on Elephants, Trekking through the minority hill ...

... healing and energize on the nature around. Now however, like all things in Thailand it is filled with party people. There are many more guest houses and bars. Even still it is an amazing place and there is much that you could get into here. It has a ...

... Toto),he is in charge of the town! At the moment it is dry season and the town is struggling for water and not many guest come to Pai, (we both actually like the fact its peaceful), in high seasons its absolutly rammed and people have to go out of town to ...

... and the views were spectacular.   We drove through tropical forests with deep valleys below us and little villages with well-built houses either side of the road. You are never far from a food and drink stops there is always one or two within a ...

... north. Having only a population of a 3000 it seems that the whole village is involved in tourism with a ridiculous amount of guest houses, bars and restaurants. I stayed in what I can only describe as a bamboo tent built upon a giant bamboo floor raised ...
