Where to start?
Best time of year to visit? Best area to stay? We will do a few nights on Bangkok then move on to somewhere else.
Advice needed!

We did Bangkok and Koh Samui in late Nov/early Dec 4 years ago. It was hot, 30+, and humid, but more manageable out of the city. There was a bit of light rain early one morning and that was it. It was glorious. Lots to do and see, lots to eat and drink, and beautiful beaches to bask on.

We did Bangkok, Phuket & Chiang Mai on Feb. Beautiful weather as long as you can handle the heat

We just did Khao Lak at Christmas - 30 degrees and sunny.

5 years ago we had a house on Koh Samui for the whole of July and August and that was lovely too.

It starts to get very hot from april and most areas are wet in July and August.
January and February are good times to visit, but avoid Chinese New Year as it will be very expensive then.
