Had to get Tom a bday cake from Pai’s #1 bakery… only thing was that the minimum order was 2lbs cake. Safe to say we ate cake every day! It’s lemon cheese cake. SOO GOOD.
Pai has so many cool hotels! I ended up booking a different one for each night. This is from our private villa at The Quarter. Loved the hidden pool.
We are going back to Pai!
So excited to be going back to Pai next week for Tom’s birthday. It’s one of our favourite places in Thailand. For those of you who don’t know where Pai is, it’s located in the north of Thailand past Chiang Mai. In the province of Mae Hong Son. Mae Hong Son is known as one of the mountainous provinces in Thailand. So you can believe me when I say that the scenery is perfect wherever you turn your head.
The usual route would be to take a plane to Chiang Mai and get a bus from the centre/airport (has to be organised with your airline and only Air Asia offers this at the moment). Pai is famous for the 762 narrow and winding turns you have to conquer to get through the mountains before you arrive. It’s part of the charm, and so worth it. Though, if that’s not for you, there’s still an option to fly all the way with a small plane on a local airline called Kan Air.
Curious to see what we did in Pai last time?
