3.0 out of 5 stars Not the best from Lonely Planet 30 July 2012
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
Before my trip to thailand I bought this Lonely Planet book as I did in previous trips!

Unfortunatelly this was not the best one I got! (inflation fault?)

The prices indicated in the book are quite different from the reality! This was in fact my biggest frustation. Prices of food, accomodation, transports etc are higher in reality, which is not a good experience for travelers on budget like me :)

Also the accomodation descriptions in the book are quite expensive! I always managed to find cheaper places to stay. Please Lonely Planet don't forget your sucess is due to budget travelers!

Still is in my opinion the best guide available.

5.0 out of 5 stars Useful Tool 9 Jan 2013
By JLT
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
Just back from 2 weeks in Thailand and this book was an invaluable tool for a firt time lone traveller there. I would have missed so much if I hadn't done my analysis with this book first. The sections on Bangkok are great plus there is a separate pull out map which was never out of my hand. Tips on which Skytrain station to get off for canal rides into the City were spot on and better than most locals' knowledge.
Advice on other areas such as Pattaya [don't both] were correct, but I still had to go there just to check myself.
On other areas of Thailand the book is equally as good. Getting to Chaing Mai by plane from Dong M? airport with various providers again spot on, as was advice on 3 day jungle treks [what do you do at night, and what if you don't like your travel companions?] all good advice. I opted for a day trip, much better.
Only criticism, the prices quoted for goods and services are way too low!!! If you are budgeting do NOT rely on the prices shown as inflation has defiitely hit everything from food to air travel and accommodation cost.

I bought this for my trip to Thailand and found it very useful, on the down side it is quite heavy to carry around but then if it was smaller I wouldn't have been able to read it! Read more

Great guide with lots of maps and tips, although I have always found that the rough guides have more detail. Saying that, this is my 4th lonely planet Thailand guide since 1996. Read more
