I think the good things about travelling during the low season are;
1. Good prices for hotels and air tickets.
2. You have much time to enjoy facilities in the hotel because it’s rainy outside!
3. It’s more likely that you can get a room upgrade.
4. You feel you have more privacy on your trip sicne there are not as many tourists.
We are glad that we decided to take a last minute trip to Phuket and Koh Phi Phi even though it was raining. We started our trip by visiting the Big Buddha which is in Phuket town and then went on an island excursion and climbed to thehighest view point of the island.
After that our driver drove us to see Rawei Beach when we were there we found a good place to have local thai food. The restaurant is called “ Mae Klong Sea food” I had Somtum, grilled chicken and sticky rice! It was either really tasty or I was starving – I am not so sure! (These three things are like you having steak with ketchup, toast and sausage.) They also serve another thai dish there we had “Cashew nut fried with chicken” After that we had lots energy so we went to Promthep Cape. The atmosphere up there was so clean and fantastic. While there I breathed a lot of O2 but it would have been nicer if the sky was more clear.
The excursion ended at another view point from there we can see 3 beaches…Kata, Karon and Patong even though they were so far away!
Then my day ended at the bar called Joe’s Downstairs but rained like crazy at Patong beach so no chance to show you the photo!
Have a good day!
Cheers!
