5.0 out of 5 stars Good Book, January 6, 2004
By Brian Pressman (Honolulu, Hawaii United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I used this book while traveling in Southern Thailand this past summer. The book is great! Having a section on BKK is also very helpful as almost anyone coming/going to Southern Thailand passes through.

The book is small and much more convenient than the larger country wide or SE Asia guide books. Assuming you are just going to Southern Thailand.. this is all you need. The format is clear and very well formatted. The prices were a tad off, but this seems to be the norm with guidebooks.

5.0 out of 5 stars tons of info, October 16, 2008
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.

2.0 out of 5 stars Hopefully they've improved it...
Just returned from Thailand this week. We used this book (although the cover photo is different, so perhaps we had the previous edition). Read more
