From Bangkok to Singapore

Discovering Southern Thailand, Malaysia, and Singapore

After a taste of Southeast Asia last year, the pull to return was irresistible. This time, we’re diving deeper into Southern Thailand, Malaysia, and Singapore during an exciting two-month journey. Our journey from Bangkok to Singapore will take us from vibrant cities to serene beaches. This trip promises a mix of culture, adventure and relaxation.

The Journey Begins in Bangkok

Our itinerary kicks off in Bangkok, a city we barely scratched the surface of during our last visit. This time, we’ll dedicate over a week to exploring its iconic landmarks, bustling markets, and tasting its mouthwatering street food. Bangkok is a bit like marmite: some like it some don’t. We really enjoyed our first visit and are looking forward to immerse ourselves in its vibe.

From there, we’ll head south, stopping at:

• Petchaburi and Hua Hin – For history, culture and a Bryde wale watching cruise (6 days).
• Chumphon and Surat Thani – Gateways to hidden gems (3 days).
• Khao Sok – A lush rainforest escape (4 days).
• Krabi and Koh Mook – For the Tiger Cave Temple and picture-perfect beaches with turquoise waters (3 days).
• Hat Yai – A blend of cultures near the Malaysian border (2 days).

Crossing into Malaysia, we’ll explore:

• Langkawi – A tropical paradise (3 days).
• Penang – Renowned for its street art and delicious cuisine (3 days).
• Kuala Lumpur – A modern metropolis with a vibrant heart (3 days).
• Kuantan – Less crowded, but equally captivating (2 days).
• Malacca – A historical city with charm to spare (2 days).

Finally, we’ll end our journey with a week in Singapore, where modernity meets tradition in this vibrant island city-state.

Wrapping Up in Paradise

After Singapore, we’ll take a well-deserved break on Koh Samui, spending a week relaxing in a peaceful beachside resort. It’s the perfect way to unwind after two months of exploration.
