Why this order?
The route groups central Thailand first, keeps the Andaman islands together as one marine chapter, and saves the northern cities and mountains for a separate final block instead of repeatedly crossing the country.

Thailand in 90 days: Bangkok, Kanchanaburi, Khao Sok
A long-stay Thailand itinerary that moves from Bangkok and Kanchanaburi through Khao Sok and the Andaman coast before finishing with Chiang Mai, Pai, and Chiang Rai.
IKARU editorial route
A long-stay Thailand route that treats Bangkok, Kanchanaburi, Khao Sok, the Andaman island chain, Chiang Mai, Pai, and Chiang Rai as separate chapters rather than compressing the country into a standard two- or three-week itinerary.

Evidence and limits

The long-stay sequence, island grouping, and exact night allocation are IKARU editorial pacing based on the existing evidence-ready route pattern; verify current ferries, flights, road transfers, weather, and marine notices before travel.
This is an editorial route, not a published real-traveler trip. No first-party traveler source is attached to this record.

Shorten
For a one-month trip, choose either the deeper Andaman chain or the extended north rather than preserving every stop with very short stays.
Extend
Use extra time to deepen the existing regional chapters rather than automatically adding the Gulf coast or another neighboring country.
