Haa!!! yang nie citer paling best nie...heheheeee
Rasanya this is my last entry kot about holiday kat Koh Samui nie. Nanti dah banyak sangat citer Koh Samui, naik juling plak mata cikjah dok baca...lol
Untuk makluman cikjah, Koh tu maksudnya island. So Koh Samui tu ertinya Samui island atau lebih hebat lagi dalam bahasa kebangsaan kita, Pulau Samui.
Dari awal lagi, chek memang niat nak hire a motorbike. Senang nak jenjalan sini sana. Kluar pukul baper pun tak kesah and boleh stop sini sana sesuka hati. Koh Samui nie hampir sama macam Bali [tapi Bali best lagi lar] . Kalo slalu kat Ubud, Bali tu chek memang sewa motorbike pun. Memang sangat mudah dan jimat. At Koh Samui motorbike rental rate is approx. RM20/day. Tapi chek dapat diskon RM18/day. Chek sewa untuk 2 hari setengah. Best sangat! Isi minyak full tank about RM5. Tahan 2 hari. Cukup pusing 1 pulau.
Amacam? ada gaya bawa motor? ahaks! heheheee
Tips kalo nak sewa motor tengok mileage yang sket. Physically masih baru and in good condition. Tapi motor kat sini banyak yang baru-baru. Kira sedap lar bawa. Vroom! vroom!! But the shop owner will keep your original passport as a guarantee.
Kalo family mat saleh lagi best, ayah hires satu motorbike naik with his son and the mother hires another motorbike with the daughter. Cute jar. Kalo nak sewa superbike atau motor-motor besar pun ada. Pilih saja nak yang mana. Nak sewa kereta pun boleh. Approximately for a Toyota Vios will cost you RM80-100/day.
Typical road at Samui.
Here they have a lot of colourful brochures, booklets, magazines with high quality printing widely available at airport, hotels, major restaurants & bars and etc for free!
So, memang sangat mudah kalo nak jalan sini sana tanpa tour guide. Highly recommend you map cap Essential. Bagus! Detailed and handy in size.
Singgah isi minyak sat near Choeng Mon. Pektis cakap Thai dengan adik isi minyak tu. Tanya dia dalam bahasa omputih kot-kot lar dia pandai reply
Me: This road go where? [speaking omputih with Thai must very straight foward. They hardly understand English]
Adik tu: urmmm....mmmmmmmm..............................................aaaaa.........mmmmmmm.... [dia nak jawab tapi tak terpacul bahasa omputih dari mulut dia...kumat kamit tanpa suara....kesian dia]
Me: Mai pen rai. kop koon [aceh! speaking Thai lar...ahoks!!]
Adik tu terus senyum dan terkaku. Tak pasti pulak terkaku sebab chek cakap Thai atau dia tak paham chek cakap Thai tadi...hahahaaaaaa
Mai pen rai tu means nevermind...
kop koon tu means thank you...heheheeee
First destination.
Wat Plai Laem.
Sambung jenjalan lagi....vroomm! vrooommm! rempit penuh gaya tak hengat...hahahaaaaa
janji gojes!
Hua Thanon
Renowned for its Muslim Fishing Village. Famous for a handful of fresh seafood restaurants, but its main attraction lies in the ancient cultures of the local fishermen.
Di sinilah terletak satu-satunya masjid di pulau ini. Restaurant muslim pun ada. Some of them pandai berbahasa Melayu. Asal usul masyarakat Muslim di sini adalah dari Malaysia tau! Dari semenanjung tanah melayu, like Terengganu, Kelantan etc. Tapi dah banyak keturunan lar. Some boleh lar cakap ala-ala Patani gitew.
Bangrak Beach
Jeng! jeng! jeng!! singgah petshop nak belikan souvenier untuk my big fat lazy cat....heheheee
Kitten for sale! ishhh geram...
Lamai is the best area to stay kalo cikjah tak baper gemar akan kesibukan kota macam kat Chaweng. Kat sini lebih tenang, night life pun kurang. Pantai pun cantik.
Kalo sebut Thailand jar mesti sinonim dengan gajah kan? Apalagi tak lepas peluang lar naik gajah.
Sebenarnya, sebelum datang lagi chek memang dah survey about elephant ride package yang bersesuaian.
The best place to go is Namuang Safari Park. Gajah treking kat tepi air terjun. Tapi, chek telah tersilap pilih. Sebab tamak kan....
Chek nak naik gajah yang 1 jam. Tak mo 1/2 jam punya. Tak sangka pulak ada banyak elephant trekking kat Samui ni. Dari awal chek memang target nak ke Namuang Safari. Tapi bila tengok banyak sangat packages jadi macam kelabu mata. Pilih punya pilih sudah tersalah pilih..... [tapi okay jugak lar cuma kureng berpuas hati and felt like being cheated] Chek call buat reservation. At 2pm depa mai jemput kat hotel and bawa ke safari depa. jeng! jeng! jeng!
Nebes...heheheeee...first time naik gajah. Rasa takut nak naik gajah yang besaq itu! Awwwww!
My package was 1 hour elephant ride for RM110/adult.
Fuyyooo! Korean couple in front of me pun berlepas naik gajah.
and it came my turn.
Nebes taw naik gajah. Selawat, mengucap banyak-banyak wooo..Siap baca doa naik kenderaan.
Takut kalo-kalo gajah naik minyak! huhuhuuu
Ngeri lar naik gajah. Paling tak tahan chek kesian kat gajah!
Uishhh! lepas nie tak mo naik gajah dah....
Tiba-tiba gajah ter-pupu. Suka hati jar pupu kat merata tempat. Yang lawaknya, boleh rasa gajah vibrates badan masa nak kluarkan pupu...hahahaaaa gross! Ada lar dalam 3-5 seconds vibrating. Ingatkan gajah nak kentut! huahuahuaaaa
Chek bertambah kesian kat gajah bila terpandang tool yang depa guna untuk pukul gajah supaya jalan.
Ouchhhh!!!
Walopun package chek 1 jam, after 20minutes, chek suruh 'gembala' gajah tu patah balik.
Chek tak sanggup nak teruskan perjalanan. Terasa amat kesian kat gajah itu...uhukkk...uhukkk...
and we turned back to the station.
Treking merentasi coconut plantation.
Gembala gajah buatkan gelang tangan, rantai dan cincin dari daun kelapa. Bagi tips sket lar kat beliau.
Dah cukup....tak mo dah naik gajah.
Pastu tengok elephant show pulak.
Disebabkan tak baper ramai orang, chek dan beberapa yang lain di pilih untuk elephant massage.
Oh no!!! I don't want and refuse to have it. Tapi kena paksa ...huh! Gajah tu pijak-pijak badan kita dengan kaki dia. Pijak-pijak manja lar. Pastu with her trunk dia vacuum kat bahagian kaki dan tengkuk..Eiiii!! geli lar!!!!
Monkey show.
I hate this!!! kesian kat monkeys tu. Penderaan terhadap hewan taw. Sebenarnya, chek tak pilih pun monkey show, tapi sebab tak dak orang, agent tu pelawa chek tengok skali.
Poor the monkeys!
Road at Nathon towards Seatrans Ferry Pier.
Beach at Chaweng Noi or South Chaweng in front of Impiana Resort.
Beach at South Chaweng in front of Centara Grand Beach Resort.
Beach at South Chaweng is good for swimming compared to North Chaweng.
Road to Lamai. Wooohooooo best!
Nak ke kiri....
To Grandmother & Grandfather rock.
Motor parking kena bayar RM1.
Tak nampak pung.....
Grandfather
Grandmother
meaow-meaooww Samui
Sawadee ka
Ini baru betul for elephant treking. Namuang Safari Park.
Ini pulak tempat yang sangaaaaaaat best!!! Paradise Park Farm
Read about it on internet. Pastu ikut map datang ke sini. Satu pengembaraan yang sungguh hebat!
Crossing the military area.
Dari sini kena mendaki about 4km. Macam naik Bukit Tinggi lebih kurang.
Errrrkkk! .......betul ker ada paradise park kat atas ni? Tak macam paradise pun???
Aiyohhh!!! Chek sebenarnya dah patah balik turun ke main road. Sebab sangat mencurigakan jalan ini.
Tanya kat one local guy. Dia kata betul. Boleh naik tapi kena hati-hati. Chek patah balik naik sekali lagi. Tiba-tiba abang yang chek tanya kat tepi jalan tadi datang. Beliau siap bagi motivation suruh bawa motor pelan-pelan. Pastu beliau tunggu until chek melepasi the disaster road. Ahaks! Kop Koon!!!
BIG and deep slope at the front there. Nampak macam jalan terputus!
Check this out!
Ada brannn??? Chek brannn...heheheeee
Tengok! ada landslide pulak tu....ouch!
Tapi pemandangan memang cantik. Nampak coconut plantation & gunung ganang sekeliling.
Melalui dusun durian. Baru tengah berbunga.
Whewww!!!! finally chek arrived! fuhh!!
Alhamdulillah. Rupanya ada banyak jugak tourists lain yang datang naik motor. Datang naik kereta sedan pun ada. About 3 cars were parked there. Motor ada dalam 6-7 units. Depa sampai lagi awal lar.
Entrance fee nak masuk sini mahal sket. RM30/adult. Tapi sebab dah gigih berusaha mendaki bukit, masuk jugaklah...hahahaaa
Tak rugi bersusah payah naik ke sini. Cukup berbaloi! A must visit place.
Terubat rasa kecut perut mendaki. The birds are super super cute! colourful and friendly.
Once I entered the entrance gate, the aunty tukang jaga burung kat situ lambai-lambai kat chek. Dengan bahasa isyarat beliau suruh chek masuk ke dalam sangkar burung yang sangat besar. Dia tarik tangan chek pastu letak salad dan makanan burung.
Automatic the little birds came and landing on my hand and makan....owh! I was so excited like a kid! hahahaaaa
Erkkk...tiba-tiba ada soap opera plak...
In second cage. Feeding the bird with honey & lime drink
Tengok kaki burung merah tu....aceh! siap tendang kawan dia....
In the 3rd cage.
Feeding the bird with kuaci.
Colourful pigeons
They are so cute!
Hi! Meet the Sprite guys.
Bulu-nya kasar. Tapi beliau sangat suka di sikat.
This is Coca Cola.
Turun ke bawah ke area air terjun
Ada cabin
Ada swimming pool overlooking a magnificient view. So don't forget to bring your own towel & swimsuit okay
Huh! cik jah dah penat ker? Jom jenjalan ke Chaweng town at night plak. Jom Sopping!
Suasana malam di Chaweng town sama macam at Kuta. Happening. Along the Chaweng beach road ada banyak upscale restaurants & bars, kedai-kedai baju, leather shop selling high end handbags, massage parlors and etc.
Sungguh best! Cuma yang tak best ialah almost 80% sellers there are monopoly by Nepalese. They have been in Samui for so many years. They speak Thai fluently and they even eat Thai food. I don't really like them they all macam eksen-eksen sket. Nak bargain pun kedekut. You take it or leave it. Takdernya nak panggil-panggil balik...huhuhuuuu
Chaweng beach road at day time. Sunyi sepi. Almost of the shop opened around 11am or 1pm. They closed at 11.30pm everyday.
I bought yoga mat at very cheap price. Paling best because it is purple. Thai loves Purple very much. It means royalty, wealth & luxury. Kalo cikjah perasan, kat mana-mana ada colour purple.
Wawwwwieeee!!! terpandang jar payung nie terus jatuh hati. Mesti beli!
RM20 jar. Tak kesah nak bawa balik macam mana, janji beli dulu...heheheeee
Lawa kan? cikjah ada? ahaks! Mana ada orang lain yang pergi holiday nak beli umbrella kan? Chek sorang jar kot. Sebab chek suka yang santik-santik. Ada banyak lagi yang santik-santik tapi size agak besar. Yang nie size S. Muat-muat dalam yoga mat bag chek. Hand carry jar masuk flight.
Kalo ada penjahat nak curi payung nie, tobat chek ligan sampai dapat...hahahaaaaaaa
Samui has a few Tesco lotus outlet. Ada Makro. Big C pun ada.
Chek sopping kat Tesco lotus sampai RM250.... Selalu sopping groceries jar kat Tesco sampai RM200 - RM300.
Tesco kat sini best. Baju-baju yang dijual sumer berkonsepkan island. Ada beach dress, beach sandal, beach hat, strawbag & etc.
Bila dah penat jenjalan, badan pun letih. Wajah yang tak baper putih nie pun dah bertukar menjadi hitam! Aiyooo!!!
Jom pi Spa!
Here in Samui ada banyak spa houses. Ada yang mahal, sederhana dan tepi jalan atau tepi pantai pun ada. I went to Magnolia Spa. Sebab dekat. Next to my resort jar. Jalan 20 langkah dah sampai. For me the standard here is just 3star out of 5. Okay-okay jer...Best lagi my favourite spa, Villamay kat Shah Alam tu. As a spa-goers my opinion in terms of package price, spa packages at Samui are slightly expensive. I could get better and longer hour packages cheaper at Villamay...heheheeee
Okay lar buat tipu-tipu. Kalo nak yang mahai, kelass dan lebih privacy. Ada! Tapi mahai lar sket.
Tapi chek tak kesah sangat...yang chek kesah ialah spa at Bali....heheheeee
At least I tried the Samui Spa.
Well? amacam? Tujuh hari tujuh malam dok berciter pasal Koh Samui....huh!
Best memang best. Dapat experience baru and learn new things about tempat orang. Do what local do eat what local eat..Chewah!!!
Terpulang lar kepada individu, some people may enjoy it and some people don't. Some people suka area town like Chaweng yang sibuk dengan nightlife, loud music, kereta, motor keluar masuk and some people suka kat area yang tenang, aman dan mendamaikan macam North or South Chaweng, Lamai, Choeng Mon dan etc.
Muka chek nie ada muka Thai kah? Masuk kedai, masuk restaurant terus depa speak Thai dengan chek....erkkk...sebab chek hitam lar tu...huhuhuuuu
Kalo cik putih mesti depa cakap omputih sebab ingatkan chek minah salih...cehhhh!! berangannn! ahaks!
Pergi jakarta pun depa ingat chek Jakartan...huahuahuuuu. Tapi nasib baik jugak jakartan, bukan dari sumatera kar, sulawesi kar, jogja kar....heheheeeee
Bila depa cakap Thai dengan chek, maka dengan kembangnya chek membalas
"Mai koa chai. Poot Thai mai dai" cheewahh!
Terus depa say sorry....and tukar bahasa omputih "owh! sorry...I thought you are Thai people....."
Mai kao chai. Poot thai mai dai means I don't understand. I can't speak Thai.
Sekarang nie chek tengah pulun dok tepek cream lancome kasi putih gebu macam selalu...ahaks!
Baru nak rehat sket, lepas nie dah nak kena start satu lagi 'project' baru plak....wooohooooo!!!!
Hope I have entertained and managed to give you some good information and tips on how to plan your trip to Koh Samui. Happy holiday everyone!
