Re: Which Hua Hin Area Attraction Is Your Number 1

Please tell more about the boat ride - I'm not aware of that one. Sorry Big Boy, I guess I shouldn't have included, it was my boat. But I do see a rental boat advertising on facebook. BTW you're welcome to a ride on mine! I did wonder if it was your boat. Thank you very much for the kind offer of a...

Re: Which Hua Hin Area Attraction Is Your Number 1

It's a lovely day out, but very hard work for a wrinklie like me. I've taken a lot of 'younger' visitors over the years, and they've all enjoyed it. Personally, it is a bit too much effort for me to do the walk these days.

Re: Songkran to become 1 month festival

That makes more sense, but 'floating' is as described in local English press.

Re: Which Hua Hin Area Attraction Is Your Number 1

Since I have no friends my only visitors have been my daughter and her two boys. Highlights for kids may be different than for adults and with kids we didn't do much in the way of temples or places two young "active" boys would not be welcome. The highlights for them pretty well all invol...

Re: Which Hua Hin Area Attraction Is Your Number 1

The vineyard was always a regular place for me to take visitors, but I stopped when they announced a parking fee. I know you can get it back when you purchase food, but I can't always manage that much food. We all used to end up in the Sala, and would invariably spend, but the fee simply turned me o...

Re: Songkran to become 1 month festival

So, what's it going to be in Hua Hin? I read a few days ago that Hua Hin's Official event would be 11 to 13 April, held at Pae Mai Floating Market. I presume the floating market refers to the intensity of the event. I've just read Bluport will be staging their celebration from 13 to 16 April. Methin...

Yes, there are 12 boats (maximum 6 persons per boat) doing the trip, so even today when it was very busy, nobody had to wait more than a couple of minutes.

I always make a point of taking visitors on what I call the Hua Hin Grand Tour, which is a packed day of visiting local attractions. Every visitor this year has said at the end that the...
