Bangkok in Your Pocket,
By A Customer
This review is from: Bangkok: The Rough Guide (Rough Guide Bangkok) (Paperback)
This past Xmas, we had only 3 days to spend in Bangkok. We brought this book, the Lonely Planet Bangkok city map, and Emily Warn's Expedia article on Bangkok -- all of which fit into one jacket pocket, if you fold the map in half. (Compactness is key when you're traveling by tuktuk, bus, and riverboat.) Thus armed, we were able to efficiently cover the main sights without exhausting ourselves too much. (Best places to slow down & relax: the Dusit Zoo and the massage school at Wat Po. Especially the massage school. $5 US for a 1-hour traditional Thai massage -- clothes on, suitable for all ages -- and you'll feel like a new man, woman, or child. Mmm! :-) )

A great guide !,
By Rohey Livne (Israel) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Bangkok: The Rough Guide (Rough Guide Bangkok) (Paperback)
I was in Bangkok after a big trip to "Australasia" and Bnagkok was the last stop... I found the book a little hard to get used to (I traveled with Lonely Planet until then) but when that happened it was hard to see me NOT reading it! The maps, insights, history coverage and accomodation/eateries recomendations are great! The only drawback is that it takes a while to find what you need in the book (it's not that well orginized...) All in all it's a great guide!
