Koh Chang so beautiful island 😮😊🫰❤️🏖🏝🌴🌊🐘🦣

[@kellysmith4625]

Thank you for posting this. We will be there in early January and can't wait...looks amazing. I already had my doubts about scooter rental on this island and your video helped confim this... We'll try that on Mak & Kood. I heard it can be a challenge on Chang bc of the hills/curves...?

[@monkey_in_sneakers]

Don't worry Kelly, Koh Chang is very relaxed. Also when it comes to road traffic. Nobody is in a hurry and the roads are in good condition. Only in the southern part can you expect tighter bends. As long as you don't drive too fast, it's easy to manage. If you are looking for a trustworthy motorcycle rental company, I can recommend "why not travel". It's cheap and the bikes are as good as new.

@@monkey_in_sneakers I really appreciate the info. Anything I can learn bn now and January is golden to me. Its gonna be a week each on Chang, Mak, and Kood in Jan. Lots to plan. Thats the fun part while waiting..lol. I sincerely thank you and may reach out again down the road if that's ok. 🤔😁❤️

Hello, when did travelled to Koh chang? For a weather purpose :) Thank you, great video

[@monkey_in_sneakers]

December till April is the perfect time to travel to Koh Chang but I also liked it in the rainy season. I go back in two days 😉

Underrated? What do you mean? Actually one of the main tourist / well known islands in Thailand. You have a lot to learn and explore here, and that's a good thing. Now low season, you know - welcome?

[@monkey_in_sneakers]

Yes, you are right. But I was also on the other well-known islands, like Phuket or Koh Samui and there was a lot of tourists in the low season. I was lucky enough to spend two weeks on Koh Chang and on all those days, you had the beaches almost to yourself. Therefore, this should only be a recommendation that this paradise is worth a visit even in the low season. Hope that I can make myself in the main season again a picture of the island :)

[@vaska1999]

A place can be well known and still underrated. No contradiction involved.

[@markolahteenmaki7116]

During the low season, Koh Chang has the most rain in Thailand, maybe that's why tourists don't go to Chang during the low season. Dengue fever also occurs. Personally, I only visited 4 times during the low season. I like it, but when you drive there in the inner part of the island, you see big piles of garbage that have just been left there.

Is that a GoPro?

[@monkey_in_sneakers]

Yes, it is 😉

[@andresilvatravel]

@@monkey_in_sneakers 9,10,11?

[@monkey_in_sneakers]

11. I can recommend, I am happy with it.

[@dennispack4119]

Without any maps or subtitles or commentary to let viewers know where you are ... the video is not very useful.

[@monkey_in_sneakers]

The names of the beaches are shown in the video but of course, I could show it better. Thank you for the helpful critique. These are good ideas!

[@ianwallace16]

I actually prefer this to the talking heads videos.🤔

[@monkey_in_sneakers]

I'm glad Ian that you like it!

[@kellysmith4625]

This video has a lot of helpful travel-research in it & I like the sound being what you hear there.

[@slesru]

why you have decided it is underrated?

[@janus302]

Underrated?

[@monkey_in_sneakers]

That was my subjective impression. I can imagine that it is different in the high season. I was on the island for two weeks and there were never many people on the beach. I wanted to show that Koh Chang is also worthwhile in the low season, especially if you want to experience relaxed days.
