Cha-am trip planner

Traditionally preferred as a tourist spot by Bangkok students and working-class families, a Cha-am holiday remains an enduring affordable option. A culturally mixed community of international students also resides in the area, thanks to the presence of the only American university in Thailand--giving Cha-am a youthful party buzz. As if to symbolize this spirit, the city's famed neon-painted buses operated by Thai students zip around town. Take stress off the schedule by using our Thailand travel route planner.
