Hi, all you need to do is to get tickets to Bangkok and find accommodation through asiarooms.com. For tour, they are easily available from the many tour agencies around, you will find one in your hotel or just next to your hotel. Various kind of packages will be available, including city tour, river cruise, temple visits, cultural shows, and visits to nearby provinces like Pattaya, River Kwai in Kanchanaburi, etc.
So, you can take your time. You can choose different package from different travel agents too.

It's hard to find. I have been to Thailand 8 times in the past couple years. One option: if you live in Los Angeles, go to a Thai travel agent in Hollywood. I have not tried it but, a Thai friend books this way. Second option: You have to book at least 3 or months in advance directly with the airlines. China Airlines, EVA Air, Thai Airways, etc. I usually use China Airlines. The secret is to take the afternoon flight that leaves between 2 pm or 3 pm depending on the time of the year. Again this is from Los Angeles. This is their lowest fare period. Return flight take whatever you can get. Cost about $760 r/t. They all end up on ONE flight back from Taipei. I have not been to Phukett, I cannot tell you which local airline to take. Though I heard Phukett Air was having financial problems at one time. Check around. For accomodations, try www.asiarooms.com, they are a french company but, good room rates and good selection. If you change your mind they are supposed to be a little slow on refunds. If you are on a budget you can get away with a 3 star hotel maybe a 2 star but, don't go below that or you will critters visiting you. I usually stay at a 4 star for USD 37 per night all inclusive in Bangkok. It's away from the Sukhumvit but, close to the massage parlors. And close to the subway and it's a 15 minute ride to Sukhumvit and the night life. It's the Emerald Hotel on Ratchadapisek road. Check the hotel reviews they are helpful. Bangkok tours, there aren't too many, mostly bus tours of the Wats or temples and other sights. Very cheap. See www.thaiwebsites.com for more info. Another option is going to Pattaya about 65 miles south of Bangkok, nice beaches and wild nightlife. Airfare to Phukett I understand is about USD 100, a taxi to Pattaya is about USD 40. Hotels probably are about the same in both places depending on where you stay. Good luck and have fun.

Listen Tomster, DON"T listen to these bozos in here telling you bout Thailand. Don't worry about ANY vacation package if your going to Thailand. ALL YEAR AROUND you don't need to book a Hotel AT ALL! That was my mistake I used my Visa and got the whole sheebang and the Hotel sucked and when they got your card # they will use it. Just land in Don Maung, ton of taxis even it they rip you off a little bit no prob, its probably a couple bucks. Tell the cabbie you want a hotel for what ever price u choose, but if you're looking for women make sure you let the cabbie know. I will never book a hotel in Thailand over the phone as I loved the "Presidential" off Sukhamvit Soi 22 if I remember, but I'm not going to thailand for a while, I'm checking other parts of asia instead.

Hi Tom - Thailand is quite safe and easy to travel around on your own.. You might want to book your air in USA and find your hotels on line.. Thais are friendly and helpful. I think a tour is not necessary and therefore you might be finding difficulty finding one though I am sure there must be many.. google, Thailand, tours and surely you will find something..
Your destinations are easy and well traveled places that are quite used to having foreigners around. Have a nice trip.
