Hi,

May I solicit some advice please regarding Chiang Mai. My Partner and I intend to visit this year, after Songkran, which we will spend in Pattaya тАУ and would just like a few pointersтАж

Accommodation тАУ any recommendations please on where to stay? Plan to do lots of touristy stuff in and around Chiang Mai, so not too concerned with being near the gay scene, but at the same time would be nice to not be a long way from it. Chang Puek (which I gather is where the nightlife is?) looks like it is quite a distance from Thapae Gate/Night Bazaar etc. Is it far, or is the map I am looking at misleading? Once IтАЩve seen the Night Bazaar тАУ is there much else to do around there anyway?

Tour guides тАУ will be seeking the services of a good tour guide. There seem to be many to choose from, so could anyone recommend one from personal experience please?

Finally, offing тАУ what is the accepted going rate in Chiang Mai to tip should I feel an itch?

Thanks in advance,

Pepperami
