Might be an age thing but its my favourite island and I've been to a few round Thailand over the past 20 years, Koh Kood is nice but even more chilled 🤙🤙

I also was so looking forward to koh chang.i went there last november.i stayed in kai bae.i didnt think it was overly expensive.i enjoyed beers late @ night.a walking st area in kai bae.its not as lively as i expected but it has some nightlife.i got motor bike hire for 250 bath a day,so not expensive.its a long journey & yes its sad to see the elephants in chains.i enjoyed my trip but theres nothing to bring me back there.samet it a handier trip & nicer beaches

Ko Chang was great, I got food poisoning though after a fun night out on the lonely beach 😢 went to hospital after throwing up 5 times, be safe with food everyone ❤

Hearing there was no night life on Chang was actually one of the selling points! Awesome!

Best koh Chang

We seem to be in a minority re Koh Chang. I visited in 2006 when I was living & working in Thailand. Looked forward to the trip as had only heard good things but it left me distinctly meh. Had travelled down from Koh Samet - a weekend place for me - & much preferred the vibe there. Didn't go back & based on my experience, wouldn't recommend. Koh Samet every time tho 💓

There is bars open too late this lad just had a bad time,I love koh chang,plus it's a small island and it's not expensive it's couple pound more maybe but still cheap

I personally enjoyed it spent songkran there , before making my way to Pattaya , I had made my way from Ko Rong Cambodia via Trat , there was nightlife , two bar areas little Pattaya and walking street around 4 miles apart and Babylon nightclub, and if your into the night time entertainment there were girls there to entertain you , , the beaches was ok ghost ship beach was decent and I stayed at cookies hotel on the beach , lots of restaurants particularly good was palms 15 and sabay ( I think it’s called ) It’s not koh samui so don’t expect too much but it enjoyed it for the 5 nights I was there 100% agree on the baht bus , I was charged 700 for a 15 min journey by myself and I felt aggrieved , I hired a moped £8 a day , I organised my journey to Pattaya for 3000 baht so not too bad

I love Koh chang I really enjoyed it and will go back

I loved koh Chang and will go back again and again as long as I can do so. I will also go to.Koh Samui, and Koh Kood And any other islands that strike my fancy.

Legend for this video. I was wanting to come till seen this

Was there last week. 3 nights was plenty for me. Didn’t notice it being more expensive, but it was much quieter than I expected, from Lonely Beach down especially. Some people might be looking for that sort of thing. Zero excitement 😆

Hi mate , it’s always going to be more expensive than the likes of Pattaya & Bangkok every island is the same in my opinion I’ve been to Koh Chang and loved it and I’m heading back there this Christmas I’ve been to Koh Samui , Koh Phangan Koh Tao Phuket Phi phi and Krabi to name a few and there all more expensive but it’s still a lot cheaper than back here in the UK

It's just not a well developed tourist spot, which is a good and bad thing, depending on what you like. The chained elephants is definitely a deal breaker for me though.

thanks for the heads up, i was planning on coming there on my travels. not now

It seems perfect for me…but I am looking for a more relaxed time. I am 53 so it is great there are islands like this. One last time I have never been in a place where the taxi drivers don’t try to scam you. Anyway I have been visiting thailand since the end of the 80’s and it’s a wonderfull place. It’s easy to get around most people are polite and helpfull. My plan is to visit koh Chang in 202y before that I will visit the north of Thailaind which I love. Great travels to you in the future

Hello there! I stayed at this hotel Alina Grande Hotel & Resort, at White Sand Beach, the best beach to stay in Koh Chang, its 50m walking distance from the beach. The Resort was really nice, clean, near everything, I highly recommend. Greetings

this is just a perspective, I think its cheaper and more relaxed than other islands. The taxi ,,scam'' is everywhere In Thailand, in the end end drives the taxi you half an hour for 4 $. Yes the elephant scam is really bad and the nightlife is not as good as in over places.

Brutally honest 💪 Many thanks

Liking your videos man! I'm sorry to hear you had a bad experience in Koh Chang. To be honest, it is my favorite spot in South Thailand, though. Night life is lacking depending on what you're looking for. Most bars are open until midnight. When they close, there are only a few other bars still open. Golden Flower near the night food market stays open all night sometimes. Babylon is the only night club on the island and stays open as long as there are people there. I agree that it is a much more chill and quiet place compared to other parts of Thailand. Going to a bar late at night will likely be maybe 5 to 15 people there. I went to Babylon one night, and there were 4 people in the whole night club. Most of the bar goers are older retired guys or traveling expats, it seems. If you're looking for crowds of people vibing to some EDM and having a blast you wont find it in Koh Chang. Depending on what you're looking for or expecting, this could be bad or good. I personally like the smaller crowds and more chill vibe.

Samet all the way. Spent there 10 days this month... Will go again for a longer one next August

Hmm, part of me says that the chill/quiet nature of the island would be perfectly fine, the other part of me wonders if I should listen to you and not just go to find out for myself.....thanks for the info though

I agreed that the island is too far to travel to and not cool enough compared to Koh Tao, Koh Pangan which gives options to everyone.

I went trn years ago and it was the opposite of how you describe, it was more chill but still alot happening.

Way cheaper than Europe.

Good to hear peoples opinions on the negatives of certain places.

Good to know, thanks for sharing

Chin up Mac.

Koh Phangan is insanely expensive man. The taxis from the ferry here are 150/200 at least unless you stay in Thongsala. Accomodation is very, very expensive. Which area do you stay in Chang?

Been to Koh Chang like 5 times and it’s my favourite island.

Maybe a bit of a weird question :) How is the mosquito situation, are there many mosquitoes?

Koh chang is great guys

Thanks for this insightful video. Do any of you have suggestions as to where to go for accommodation on the island?

Koh Samet is miles nicer

Not nice

I was just about too book too come was told it cheap like pattaya has good nightlife..i was coming alone now i think i might go elsewhere

Can i smoke weed there?

bro koh chang road is such a fucking curveball no WONDER they charge more

White sand beach, Kai bai, chai chet, lonely beach all had bars open until at least midnight when I went in January 2021. I was going to go back but thinking twice now

Yes mac 250 subs already g, smashin it gonna be monetised in no time!

Were you in the west side of the island, in white sands? Or in other part of the island? I heard there would be some nightlife in white sands but not sure now. Was gonna go there for in a week but not sure now.

Good to see some objective points raised. Too many channels out there doing all the glowing praise only.

what about koh kood? is it worht visiting?

Go to chai chet or white sands ….can drink all night if you choose to!

Are u british man?
