DIY a great trip
that’s true to you
If my best friend would ask me "which island in Thailand should I visit?" I would definitely recommend Ko Tao with no doubt.
Why? It has everything you need and it has vibes that you cannot find in the famous sisters islands: Koh Phangan & Koh Samui.
It’s known for the best beaches in Thailand with crystal clear water and soft sand ideal for swimming & snorkelling.
We lived there for a month ‘cause we really wanted to feel like a local and explore most of the places.
In this guide made for slow travellers like me I’ll recommend you:
• where to stay to enjoy the best beaches
• delicious vegetarian/vegan restaurants & cafe
• sustainable survival shops & souvenirs
• how to be part of the community even if only for a short time
• and much more
I wish you to experience Thailand in the most genuine way to come back home full of life. 🫶🏻

Koh Tao is an amazing spot for work and play, but we gotta admit, AC-equipped cafes aren't as abundant as coconuts here! 😅
But hey, no worries! We've got your back with some seriously cool (literally!) cafes where you can escape the island heat while getting stuff done.

Una guía completa para conocer Tailandia de pies a cabeza, yendo desde el sur al norte viajando sola. Les comparto mi experiencia personal y la ruta que yo decidí seguir. Esta ruta me funcionó a la perfección, así que les estaré compartiendo experiencias personales y muchos consejos para que sepan cómo, dónde y a cuales lugares llegar.
Esta ruta va destinada a un rango de edad entre 18-30, ya que mi punto de vista es juvenil y con esa experiencia previa, además siendo latinoamericana.
También está guía es con el tiempo estimado de viajar Tailandia por máximo 2 meses.
Puedes acortar los días que recomiendo dependiendo del tiempo que gustes pasar en el país
