Hi, my wife and I are going to Singapore and Phuket in late September to early October 2007.
After that she fly’s home for work and I have a month or so on my hands.

Here are my questions.

I’m thinking of doing a tour something like this:

Phuket
Ranong
Mergui (Burma) or stay the Thai side of the boarder?
Kanchanaburi (Hellfire pass, Burma Railway)
Ayutthaya

After that the maybes are

Chiang Mai (too far north?)

Laos Maybe

Really want Phnom Penh. Cambodia

Really want some Vietnam, friends say Saigon better than Hanoi, but mostly want to see beautiful places. Hao long Bay (yes I know it’s North)

Budget,
Can afford to fly legs but anything under 300klms will probably bus or train to see more.

Accommodation 30 US\ 40 AUD or there about. Cheaper is better but I don’t need a flea pit at my age, 40’s.

Any advice gratefully received.

Please feel free to suggest alternate itinerary, I don’t think I’ll get this going solo chance again for a while, if ever.

If you know of a more appropriate forum for the off Thailand legs, I’d like them too.

Thanks in antipcipation
