Which is cheap on line tour or buy the travel agency in Bangkok?

hi, I will travel to bangkok on 19 jun and will let on 24 jun

I would like to take a tour around Bangkok that can show the most important part for example: city,temples, shopping, Floating Market, Rose Garden, the Ancient City, Jim Thompson's House %26amp; Palace, Golden Buddha Temple, Chinatown, dinner in the cruise, night live, like Calypso show, etc. Also Tiger temple and also elephant ride.

I was thinking to do somthing like this:

Day 1 (DAMNOEN SADUAK FLOATING MARKET %26amp; ROSEGARDEN)

Day 2 (CITY TOUR %26amp; GRAND PALACE, ANCIENT CITY

and JIM THOMPSON HOUSE)

Day 3 (RIVER KWAI %26amp; TIGER TEMPLE )

Day 4 (AYUTTHAYA)

I getting proposal arround from 300$ thru 600$ or more per person just for tour for 2 person. So i wonder to know if there is a cheap option direct in bangkok or is better to do onlinebooking. ???????

Thailand, Bangkok in particular, is one easiest countries in that area for getting tours set up.



In Bangkok, Chiang Mai or Pattaya you simply find the nearest travel agency and check out their list of tours. All of the tours you want are pretty common, tour companies go to these places all the time.



After you locate the nearest travel agency (there are lots of them) choose the places you want to see and the tour company will pick you up at your hotel and return you there. They are used to quick turnovers, choose the tour early in the morning and you may be able to leave that afternoon. Same for evening dinner cruises. Or you can choose a tour in the evening and leave the following morning.



When you leave on tours or anytime you leave your hotel for a while make sure you have some toilet paper in your travel bag, also good idea to have some of those paper hand wipes (wet wipes/wetnaps.) Some stops you make may not have paper or means of cleaning your hands.



Probably a good idea to wear a hat to shade your eyes and some sun block too if you are going to be outside a lot.



When you buy your tour in person you know you are not getting cheated, also you know if there are any "hidden charges" right away! Often when you purchase anything overseas using a credit card there are "other charges" added into the final bill!



Good luck.







Good luck.
Reply:Since you will msot likely have to take a flight transfer anyways I would reccommend booking in vietnam where the tours are offered very cheap, you will most likely go to the main tour spots in bangkok, and possible make a trip out to pattaya too, but they have many package options and are willing to book last minute.

Reply:USD300 is about Baht9500, you could get cheaper online. Also, Day 2 doesn't make sense.
Reply:Sooooo - EZ - [ though I have never done it ] - but nearly every single hotel in bkk has a travel desk and they all have brochures for what I assume is the same tours.. OR - in the tourist areas, the streets are full of travel agencies who also have the same tours... You can book near anywhere and usually these kinds of things will pick you up at your hotel.. and the prices seem to be fairly reasonable too - - so, I would not even bother to book online but if you feel a need to do it in advance, you might contact a travel agent or the hotel where you are staying... I think the prices above that you mention are high - - but, well, I have a car, I don't take tours so I don't know for sure... but there seem to be no shortage of tours here.. and you are coming during off season too. good luck - great country.. have fun
