Head to head

Which part of Thailand should you train in

Nobody picks a region from a list of regions. They pick between two, usually the two a friend mentioned. These are those pairs.

6 comparisons

Pick the pair you are stuck between

Phuket against Chiang Mai

The two most common first-trip candidates, and they are not competing for the same person.

Phuket against Bangkok

A packaged training holiday against the city where the professional sport actually lives.

Phuket against Pattaya

Two long-established foreigner camp scenes with very different price tags and very different towns.

Chiang Mai against Bangkok

Two cities rather than two resorts, split by climate, cost and how close you want to be to the professional scene.

Chiang Mai against Pattaya

Two of the cheapest ways to train in Thailand for a long time, and two very different environments to do it in.

Bangkok against Pattaya

Close enough to visit each other, far apart in what a week of training looks like.

Or skip it

If you would rather answer six questions than read six comparisons, the camp matcher gets to the same place faster.
