    5.0 out of 5 stars A picture is worth 1000 words, June 2, 2001
    By A Customer
    The National Geographic Traveler travel guide for Thailand is a bit pricey for travel books of this type, but it is well worth the investment. Unlike most travel guides, this one is rich in beautiful photography. The book offers a wealth of information on the history and culture of the country, and it gives detailed information about each tourist site. The section covering hotel accomodations and restaurants is adequate, but there are other travel guides that do a better job in these departments. However, the great number and high quality of the photographs compensate for other shortcomings and tempt you to see it all for yourself.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Dependable quality of narratives and pictures, October 14, 2005
    National Geographic Traveler is the best series of its type, and the NGT Thailand book has the same standards of quality as all the others. It provides an excellent mix of written descriptions and beautiful pictures, both of which are helpful in determining whether to include places on your trip itinerary. The only flaw is that the hotel and meal section is not particularly useful.

    1.0 out of 5 stars Glossy and pretty but lacking in substance, October 27, 2004
    By M. Stabile (Gwinnett County, GA) - See all my reviews
    (REAL NAME)   
    This book seems to be mostly fluff and pictures. It's all in full color which makes it appealing to the eye, and the pictures and general information about various locations are interesting. However, it's almost useless in planning a trip.

    All the hotels and restaurants are listed at the back of the book (separate from the other information about the cities, which in itself is annoying because you have to flip back and forth), and the selection they list seems completely random. For many cities no hotels or restaurants are listed.

    National Geographic would do well to cut down on the pretty colors and pictures and expand the actual information provided in this book. As it is now, it is a waste of money. Buy the Lonely Planet guide if you want practical information that will actually help you to plan and enjoy a trip to Thailand.

    1.0 out of 5 stars What an absolute waste of money
    Buy it for the pictures only. The organization and quality of information in this guidebook is terrible.

    The worst travel book I've ever purchased.
