Kick Boxing a good Muay Thai subsititute?

[MenteReligieuse]

All I read and seen on muay thai seems pretty interesting, but sadly there is no school that teaches it in my area.

 

Would kick boxing be a good replacement? What are the differences between the two?

 

Currently learning traditional Kung-fu, think I might wanna add something more "modern" and physical to my work outs.

I will say go check out any local Kickboxing centers that you may have in your area. I know some places use muay thai techniques in their programs. Muay Thai is awsome and it compliments any kickboxing program and thats one reason why we are starting to see muay thai techniques being used in all types of kickboxing facilities.
