How much does it cost to travel to Taodao? Taodao’s latest consumption level in 2018

This may be a topic that everyone is more concerned about, which is how to calculate the cost of diving or visiting Tao Island. Prices vary from year to year. How about this year? The editor can't tell you directly how much it is, but I can tell you.

The overall consumption on the island is not high. Although prices have increased in recent years, they have also increased in our country, so let’s treat them as equal proportions. Let’s give some reference from the aspects of food, accommodation and entertainment.

Eating in Koh Tao

Juice/smoothie/ice cream/coconut: 10-15 yuan

Fried rice noodles, fried noodles, soup noodles: about 20 yuan.

Snacks: such as fried chicken, pancakes 10-15 yuan

Mid-to-high-end restaurants: General Western restaurants cost 60-70 yuan per person, like many in the middle of the mountain or near the sea with good views Restaurants cost 100 yuan per person.

Freshly squeezed passion fruit smoothie only costs 60 baht. It couldn't be better.

This 169-piece self-service barbecue hot pot is almost the canteen for our school dinners. The price has not increased in several years! Rather, there are more and more types of dishes, and the key is that they taste good and are suitable for pampered Chinese stomachs like ours! It is recommended to bring hot pot seasonings from home. It's perfect! Drinks are charged separately, which costs 40 to 50 yuan per person!

Address: After leaving Foguan School, turn left and go straight. Go up the mountain on the left side of the three-way intersection and walk a few steps to see it. About a kilometer. After class, I was slowly walked by a group of people.

Living in Koh Tao

It is recommended to stay in the south. There are several mid-level hotels around the bay, mostly small single-family houses with beautiful scenery. It is close to several of Peach Island's major attractions such as Love Island, Sherlock Bay, Shark Bay and Liberty Beach.

Honeycomb, booking, Google, and tripadviser can all search for accommodation, and the click map mode makes it easier to see the hotel location.

Price: A seaside hotel with older facilities can be booked for more than 100 RMB a night, and a scenic swimming pool with good facilities and environment can be booked for 300 or 500 RMB. A slightly more luxurious resort or something like 700-1,000 yuan/night sky.

Traveling in Koh Tao

The cost of renting a motorcycle is 150 baht per day, and a bottle of oil is 40-50 baht (the size of a large beer bottle). Many people say that it is not recommended to rent a car on the island, saying that it is all kinds of extortion. Anyway, I have never encountered malicious extortion every time I rent a car in the south. Maybe the commercial atmosphere in the south is not so strong, and the locals feel more simple. However, if you rarely ride a bike, it's best not to. After all, we are driving in the opposite direction, and human habits can easily lead to misjudgment. If sure, you can rent a car.

Friends living in the south can rent a car at the places marked with red dots and red lines on the map. I have consulted with several companies, and I can feel from the communication that they are very honest, professional, and willing to help when I ask questions. In the end it took me an hour to return the car and no one cared about it. There was also something wrong with the seat card when I borrowed the car. The owner fixed it, but it was still broken after we drove away. When I returned it two days later, without knocking, they said the seat would probably need to be changed. But when you borrow a car, you still have to take photos and videos, and the store will also take photos. This is a guarantee for strangers to supervise each other's transactions.

Having fun in Koh Tao

Massage: 60 yuan Thai style 50-1 hour. Let me tell you a little story: The last time I went to Taodao to get my diving certificate was at the Foguan Diving Resort in the south, because I couldn’t get a massage 6 hours after diving, but I am a person who likes great health care! The day after I got the certificate, I went to a nearby massage parlor to give a chicken a massage. The picture above is of a massage parlor near Yin Yang Thai. This store has large floor-to-ceiling windows and orange curtains, and the little sisters in the store are also wearing traditional Thai orange clothing. I almost misunderstood, but I was moved by the smiling young lady in front of the store and walked in. Tea and biscuits were served at the end, and the whole process was very professional and polite. Needless to say, the massage techniques are top-notch, and I added them in the end. Finally, when I was almost 30 years old, the young lady asked me if I was 18, which made me feel like I had a baby for the first time! Finally, I tipped the lady 100 baht.

Bars: Bars on the beach are not expensive

Muay Thai: I have seen underground boxing matches in China before. Compared with Thailand, it is weak. It was really bloody because there were a lot of foreigners going to watch it and the atmosphere was great. I have to say that it is really easier for Westerners to play.

Ladyboy Bar: Free consumption, the price of wine is similar to other bars, and the transvestite performances are not as exaggerated as those in Phuket.
