Where would you travel? Greece? Thailand?

Question

I am planning a trip this year and I would love some advise on where to go. I want some place that has beautiful beaches, clear water, great night life, culture, history, is safe etc....
Money is not really a problem but obviously cheaper is better.
I was thinking about Greece or Thailand or Bali or ?????
Any advice? I am late 20's, single and want to have fun!!!
Thank you for your help!

Answer 1

I'll go for Thailand when in terms of budget, beaches, & nightlife. (- -,)

Answer 2

If I were you, I'd go to Thailand. It's a lot cheaper than going to Greece. I've never been to Greece and would like to go, but from my many experiences in Thailand. It's more worth going to Thailand if you want to see great beaches, clear water, not a great, but AWESOME night life, and great culture (history).. Thailand is safe.. I've never had any problems there.. Bali is a great place to go.. or was.. I haven't been there in 3 or 4 years since the clubs exploded due to the bombing.. but at the time it was a good place to go, but I still would've chosen Thailand over Bali..

I think you would definitely enjoy Thailand. Phuket is nice.. prices have gone up a lil since the tsunami though.. Pattaya is by far the best.. Bangkok is great as well.. Koh Samui is a great place, but I'm not sure about being single there.. I took my girlfriend there and had a blast.. but it seems more like a resort type place.. I hope this helped..

Have fun with whichever place you decide!

Answer 3

I'm Thai and had my honeymoon in Greece many years ago. I like Greece and would like to go back there again sometime in the future but no rush as I still have lot of places to go. I've never been to Bali and don't want to say anything as it would not be fair to bali.

Re your question, I'd recommend Thailand. Thailand is much cheaper and have everything you mentioned. One factor I always use as a factor to decide where to go, is the people. Not to be bias (as I'm a Thai), but I believe the Thai would make you feel at home more than other places you mentioned ( I enjoy travel to all parts of Thailand, sometime alone, but I've never feel unsafe or lonely. An innocent smile from villagers is worth my trip to the upcountry).

Answer 4

I have been to Greece and Thailand, and Greece is lovely indeed, however prices are more expensive. Thailand is a lot cheaper, and its rich in beauty and culture, you can do and have all of the above at a fraction of the price you pay for a country in the EU.
Now when I was in Thailand, I remember a dude I met saying how he lived in Bali for a while and how it just doesnt have that special touch anymore.

Answer 5

Well all of them sound great, but in Thailand you have the risk of getting on with a shemale hahahaha. No honestly, I've seen some of them and the first time I saw them in a club at night I thought they were gorgeous women. I've been to Greece and I will recommend it, especially the islands Crete and Santorini, but they have loads of other ones that are great for party etc.

You can also go to Bali or Thailand, they are completely different from Europe or America and very exotic. It's really up to you and how you feel about it. People in Asia are really friendly however. I studied there and my experience with them has been cool!

Answer 6

Thailand

Answer 7

Well I am partial to Thailand. I think it will be much cheaper than Greece. If you come to Bangkok, you can travel around to the places that interest you. Culture and History up north in Chiang Mai, beautiful beaches in Phuket, and the great nightlife in Bangkok. And all accessible easily.

Answer 8

Check out Contiki tours! I travelled for 3 months when I was 24 and did a contiki tour for 2 weeks through Europe and loved it. They are designed for young people with an age restriction of 35. It doesn't matter where you go you will have a ball. The tours always take you to the hot spots of the country/countries you choose, which takes out the guess work for you and avoids you finding out after you have been there that you missed something you would have liked to see if you had've known when, where and how. They have two types of tours one being a budget option (cheaper accommodation). You get experienced guides that help you experience the history, culture, nightlife, cuisine, sights, attractions, etc in depth, leaving how much you explore it up to you with free time. Definitely recommend Contiki and can't wait to do another one some where else. You become quite close to the people in your group which is nice. I met 4 people on Contiki in Europe that lived within 1 hour drive from me in Australia... Be aware of the seasons in the country you choose it may be warm where you live in December but not in Europe. I have heard Asian countries are cheaper. Have fun, I am so jealous!!!

Answer 9

Pick Greece - also lovely beaches,cristal clear water and a funky night life but less hooker's,sorry or almost none like in Thailand.You even might find a lovely holiday flirt with a normal girl not being after your money/credit card but just looking for you! Loads of history there but slightly more expensive than over here.

Answer 10

I am familiar with Thailand that I will say Thailand biasly. But onestly, I do know that Greece has nice places to go to.

If you want to know more about Thailand in term of your expectations for your holiday, I should be able to provide you with some information.

You can look at Phuket, Krabi and Phanga provinces in Thailand at http://www.tourismthailand.org for their attractions.
