Matters needing attention in Thailand tourism
1, Thailand is affected by the southwest monsoon from July to September, which is the rainy season. It's the price.
The temperature is highest in February, March and May. Play with friends in the south! Come on! I am not afraid of the sun.
3. Change Thai baht in Bangkok, and the guidebook will tell you to use UnionPay! This is a fucking lie! The most suitable thing is to exchange a lot of 100 denominations of US dollars with the gang seal at China Bank in China, and then directly exchange US dollars for Thai baht! Watch the buying price and selling price.
They like those with many gang seals. The more they have, the more dollars they represent. They passed by many arms dealers and drug lords. They have already checked the money for you. The possibility of counterfeit money is very low.
If you don't have local friends or trustworthy people, you'd better go to the bank exchange window instead of the private exchange point. Not in airport metro or something like that, it's not worth it.
The most cost-effective and safest are some formal private banks in downtown Bangkok. Personally, I feel that the price is the best and it is easy to find. They are all gathered together, well decorated and formal, and look like banks. They close at six in the evening (watch your watch, the time difference is one hour).
4. It is better to have someone who can speak Thai. Chaoshan dialect in southern Thailand is also very popular, or Minnan dialect (especially Phuket). In short, if you help yourself, you'd better not speak English alone, which is easy to be robbed. However, I recently found that they are too lazy to polish their yellow hair, and they all go for Russia or China. Knowing Thai can save a lot of trouble.
5, play the island, sea salt fruit and coconut you can rest assured to eat, durian eat too much, just eat mangosteen. Lotus rambutan, you're welcome. Thai fruit is calculated by kilograms, and the sellers are basically very enthusiastic. If there is about 10 baht left, you can keep the change, but you must never tip. Coins can't be used as tips either, because they are usually given to beggars at the gate of temples. (Many raiders talk about tipping, but seldom talk about it)
6, stall bargaining should be a little skill. Usually a small piece is enough. If you smile politely and kindly, you can make a deal. Don't divide it, otherwise the seller will be very angry and I don't know the consequences.
7. If there is enough time and budget. Kosamette Island? It belongs to Luo Yong's family. It's also in Siam Bay, and KohLarn, Grand Island near Pattaya, which is quite good.
8. To play on the island, it is best to swim.
9. If you go to the island, you'd better ask if the hotel has a diving package. It's a good deal. Or buy tickets directly in Bangkok, which will save you a little. Anyway, it is to let yourself have no worries, and the price is naturally more cost-effective.

20 17 travel notes to Thailand: /tour/2749.html
Thailand is a typical Buddhist country, and the pace of life in every city here is very slow. Everyone can gradually adapt to this normal life, but the big cities in Thailand also have their own crazy side. All kinds of unrestrained sex art are very unrestrained, and there are the most entertainment items, so Thailand tourism should pay attention to many details.
Just came back from Thailand, let me share some personal thoughts and suggestions with you first.
For reference only, if you have any objections, please discuss.
I won't say much about "visa", because I wrote a post signed by Thailand before, and the fairy needs to turn it over in front of me.
What I want to say here is that starting from next month (starting from August 1), the visa fee for landing in Thailand will be restored to the original price of 450 yuan (2000). At present, I plan to travel to Thailand 1000, and I will travel in July quickly;
Or sign up for Thai stickers in advance, and the visa-free fee policy for Thailand before August 3/KLOC-0 will also be cancelled. It seems that there are more than 200 people who need to be recharged!
The "Immigration Department" requires each person to randomly check 2w (about 4000 RMB) or the equivalent of RMB and USD. Although the probability of random inspection is very low, it is not a lot of money. It is recommended to take it with you, just in case.
"Communication Card" We bought a happy card in tb in advance, and now the happy card has been upgraded to an 8-day package.
After 8 days of activation, there is 2.5G high-speed traffic, that is, 4G extremely fast traffic, and the phone bill is 299 yuan. During my stay in Thailand, I made a lot of calls to China, and the traffic and expenses were inexhaustible.
It is recommended to buy in advance. According to the Immigration Bureau, the local price in Thailand is around 60 yuan. But we bought four happy cards in tb, and the postage is about 100 yuan.
Time difference Thailand is one hour later than Beijing time.
Of course, the most common "payment methods" are cash and visa, and UnionPay is not OK in some places but it is also quite common;
There are also powerful WeChat payment and Alipay, which are also very common. Convenience stores and shopping malls are basically ok, and Alipay is lower than the real-time exchange rate!
"Communication Mode" Because there are so many tourists in China, almost everyone, from shop assistants to drivers, can communicate with you in simple Chinese. Except for islands, where there are quite a few foreigners, English is the main language.
The "air ticket" booked four flights this time, namely AirAsia and Thai Airways.
I have to say something about AirAsia official website, which is really bad! I get angry every time I book!
Besides, I am very satisfied with the place I went and the two trips I booked with flying pigs!
Remember to buy extra freight when booking AirAsia!
Thai Airways doesn't need it. It already includes 20kg of luggage and catering expenses, and the seats are much wider!
"Entry Card" Thailand entry card will be issued and filled in in advance on the plane.
Only English and Thai. Figure 2 is a bilingual version.
Reservation is the main hotel. Personally, I feel that the evaluation on the reservation is more real.
"Pick-up" is reserved by tb. Basically, every plane is scheduled to pick up and drop off, especially Krabi, which is super far and the traffic is not developed enough. The next one is recommended to everyone.
"Waterproof cover necessary for launching" Remember to bring your mobile phone waterproof cover if you have a plan to go to sea.
Three-piece sunscreen: sunscreen+spray, big hat and sunglasses.
An Naisun vase! Absolute sunscreen 65438 +0!
It is sunny almost every day! The sea is so bright! But I didn't get a tan!
On the day I went out to sea, I was afraid of new heights in the dark, so I kept painting and spraying, and I made up every time I went into the water. You know, the ultraviolet rays in the water are also super strong!
I see many people in the same trade are still red from sun protection. We are neither black nor red!
"Bring your own toothbrush and toothpaste" Many hotels in Thailand do not provide dental appliances.
"Driver's License and Translation" Thailand recognizes China's driver's license, and anyone who rents a motorcycle or car should have it.
"Rent a motorcycle" generally hotels have their own service, which is more convenient, but it will be more expensive. Remember that the rental time is calculated by 24 hours, not by days.
Be sure to wear a helmet!
It is recommended to prepare a raincoat. It often rains when the sun is shining, so it is inconvenient to drive with an umbrella.
Take sunscreen, you'll get sunburned if you drive a motorcycle!
"Motion sickness medicine" seasickness, motion sickness by plane, as long as it is a means of transportation, it will easily make me dizzy. This little thing is available at any time. You can buy it from Thailand 7, and there are two for 5 yuan. Remember to take it 30 minutes in advance!
Massage is an essential project to Thailand, just like Qizai convenience store, there is one almost every few steps.
I didn't go to the online celebrity store, but it's almost anywhere.
There will be a foot massage at the night market.
"Bangkok Skyrail" Bangkok's main route is Skyrail, which is more expensive than the domestic subway.
Tickets are mainly sold in coins. It is suggested to prepare a pile of coins to facilitate coin voting. 2 yuan coins can't be cast.
Then the car is super cold! Every time an old man like me enters the station, he will have a chill, just like entering the freezer.
"Tu Tu price" is in Chiang Mai, except motorcycles, all our trips are in Tu Tu;
In Bangkok, if you can't do it, choose tutu.
The difference between two cars and tuTUTU is that two cars are equal to buses and will continue to carry other passengers on the road, while TU is equal to taxis and will not carry others.
However, there is no official fixed price for tu, so it needs to be grasped by itself.
Cut the price given by the driver by half, and then the driver bargains a little more.
Before bargaining with the driver, we usually check the mileage of the route.
In Chiang Mai, we bargained to 100 ~ 120 for a distance of 4 kilometers, and Bangkok was a little higher.
Drivers generally don't tell you the price before departure. In order to avoid being pitted, be sure to ask the price before boarding!
Bangkok is really a super congested city! It's been blocked!
The road conditions in Thailand are quite good, and the overall driving speed of drivers is relatively fast.
Be sure to fasten your seat belts in the front and back rows! mandatory
If you find no department, you will be fined!
"tampons" are most afraid to have their holidays when traveling, especially to the seaside.
However, fear returns to fear,
