Please DO read my rant
Okay guys so I will be transiting in Bangkok with my parents in late June/ early July next year and I was thinking of turning that transit into a short holiday out of Bangkok.. Especially as Thai has flights to Chiang Mai and Phuket under $200 return from Bangkok, it should be easy to convince my parents into it I'm thinking of staying for 3-4 nights in either of the cities, and the accommodation won't be problem.. it's mainly, what can we do if we go to either? I don't mind just going and chilling in either places, but my parents want to go somewhere "constructive" as most people do like to haha.
That's why I wanted to know if there will many things to see in Phuket other than beaches cuz my mom is not a beach fan.. Are there many touristy things to last like 3 days? Also, I have heard that the beaches in Phuket are nice, but they're overcrowded, and I want to really make my holidays worthwhile if I go there, to see some really amazing beaches.. My mom would prefer Chiang Mai I know, but I don't know if there will be anything interesting there to fill up our whole holidays with.. Is there anything very unique to Chiang Mai that cannot be really seen anywhere else?? And also, does anyone know which one is better for shopping cuz my mom would then be a very happy lady!
