If you go on your own without tour operators, what difficulties you may encounter
I would like to somehow get to the islands, how to reserve hotels or will it be possible to do it right on the spot?
Maybe someone will advise?
Knowledge of English - no.

I don't know about Thailand. And about Egypt - if you book a hotel on your own (without a tour operator), then the price for 1 night is one and a half to two times higher! It's strange for me... But it's cheaper with a tour operator.

This is if locally, then more expensive, and if in advance, then 2 times cheaper, one BUT, only charters fly to Sharm and Hurghada. Without knowledge of English, everything will be problematic in any country.

Friends, the question was about Thailand.
You can go without a tour operator. The biggest difficulty that can arise is the availability of plane tickets from Bangkok to get to the islands. This is in the event that you have not booked in advance. However, even in this case, a train and a bus to Pattaya travel from Bangkok (you can take a taxi, but you will have to pay for both ends), and from there you can sail anywhere by ferry. Tickets are always available. Unless with great bad luck it will be necessary to wait several hours in Pattaya for the next ferry.
The hotel can be found upon arrival to the islands. In addition to large and untwisted, there are many small ones. You just need to decide for yourself what you need. The cost of buying a number on the spot is 3-4 times cheaper than through an operator.

Look at http://www.grandorchidtravel.com - this is a Thai company with Russian staff, I worked through it when it was necessary to find a hotel and local transfers.

The director of this company is Anna Kharitonova. Go to the site.

yes, there will be no problem. But at least a little English is desirable to know. There are always plane tickets to distant islands, but you won’t catch the promotional price on the spot, you need to book in advance and choose dates with the lowest price. You can book the hotel yourself, but you need a currency payment card, and then you choose and book everything on the site. To nearby islands without any problems at all and without advance booking. I will write the addresses of the sites where to look for everything in a personal appeal, from here they will be deleted anyway. And, gentlemen, Russians, learn English at least somehow, the whole world knows it and it won't hurt you.

Yes, plane tickets will cost you more than buying a tour. Why bother?
аватар Amir1
alexa80 you are very mistaken. Author from Ukraine. And there everything is different.

From Ukraine they have just started throwing shares from Aerosvit on tickets to Tai, but they are very difficult to catch at a good price.
And to go to Moscow and from there then fly to Tai, it will also come out almost the same, but how much time is a nightmare.

The only problem is the knowledge of English. For the sake of interest, we tried to find out prices from Russian-speaking guides - we got the usual price multiplied by 3. We fly ourselves a second time and again on our own. Before the trip, we compose a route (usually we divide the rest into two parts, active and beach) and get a lot of pleasant impressions ahead.
