In reply to Ken. Hey Ken, This is per individual. Costs per person would be doubled with the exception of hotels. But yes, you can just subtract whatever isn't relevant to you. Note that food costs can vary quite a bit too. Street food is very popular and can cost you less than $5 a meal

Just to be clear: Are the estimated costs per person? We’re going to Thailand for 15 days, on a tour most of the time and to a resort hotel on our own. Can I subtract out of your 10-day budget the items we’ve already pre-paid or won’t encounter (accommodations and most local transportation, for example), multiply by 1.5, and come up with a reasonable per-person cost for 15 days? I’m trying to figure out how much cash to bring to pay for things where credit cards might not be accepted.

In reply to Emily Burg. Hi Emily! How was your trip? I would like to book something like this for my wife and me. Was the $7000 for both of you? I'd love to hear what you liked and what you would do differently.

In reply to Mohamed. Hey Mohamed, It really depends on where you're going, but basically you want to try and avoid the rainy season.

In reply to Bobby j. Bobby, Yes, costs can be crazy cheap if you're not too picky.

I am a 61 year old man. Leaving for Patong beach (via Chengdu) feb 4-March 1. I’m staying in a hostel as I did last year . My cost from Vancouver BC, $850.00 Canadian. That’s airfare and 26 nites. I’m pretty much guaranteed perfect weather. Sunny and hit every day. I rent a motorcycle and travel up and down the various beaches and love it. Food, drink and massages are cheap

In reply to rebekah hughes.

Rebekah,

Although many places take credit cards, Thailand still uses a lot of cash (especially at attractions and street vendors). $35 USD for food a day is probably enough but you also need to factor in shopping and transportation.

There are ATMs everywhere so you can just bring a bit to start with and then withdraw more as you need it.
