Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - tons of info
Have been using this book while planning an upcoming trip to Thailand. I have used Lonely Planet books in the past but I think I will be switching to Rough Guide from now on. This book contains lots of helpful info on all areas of Thailand's beaches and islands as well as a thorough section on Bangkok. Unlike Lonely Planet, Rough Guide does not assume that only backpackers will be using their guidebooks and therefore makes an effort to review all levels of accomodation and restaurants.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Covers the road less traveled
Great and giving advice and suggestions for areas that are less visited by tourists!!! Perfect for an independent traveler like me.
