Eating Noodles For Less Than a Buck is one of the BEST things to do in Thailand

There’s a place called Victory Circle and it is literally the hub of boat noodle soup.  And they even named a whole alley after it, the place is literally called boat noodle alley.  They serve tiny bowls of flavor packed noodles for less than a buck.  We each had about 5 bowls each – Check Food Tour Prices.

Visit the Stunning Waterfalls

About a 3 hour drive from Bangkok you will find this stunning waterfall!  It has 7 tiers you can climb and each pool is more stunning than the next.  This is one of my all time favorite experiences in Thailand, especially after all the hustle and bustle in Bangkok

Playing with Elephants

Yes you should play with elephants at a sanctuary!  NOT ride them.  We did play with elephants a long time ago but at the time I did not know about how much they were abused and did not research the company we went with.  If we  had to do it all over again I’d visit an elephant sanctuary instead.
