still ok lo..

Hey I saw your 4th and 5th day planning, it looks like Shopping Center Hopping

The food court at Siam Paragon and Platinum Mall serve good food! And Siam paragon gourmet market is a good place to shop for rice crackers and dried pineapple~

haha only shopping plus massage lo

btw where will your tour guide drop you after the half day tour? I think can pay a visit to Khao San Road!

My friends went to the calypso cabaret show (the price was 650THB)

hahaha Clubbing go to RCA! Must go and try! Then you won't feel like to club in M;sia! I went RCA's Route 66! Love it!

anyway, if you want to go Live Band Club pls reach there around 9p.m or else full house, R&B club 10p.m.. their club close at 2a.m and non smoking in there! Liquor is cheap but mixers and ice need to pay to refill!~
Remember to bring passport coz they will check at the entrance then we have to pay 200THB to buy coupon. The 200 THB coupon can be used to buy drinks. If you open a bottle of JD, it cost around 2000 THB then you give the 200 THB coupon and pay 1800 THB!

SPA - Must try Coran Spa! Its Website! Now still got 50% promotion!

Massage - To be honest, I hate Thai Traditional Massage. I prefer aromatherapy/oil and foot massage! I like Siam Relax at Siam Square, their environment is GOOD!~~ and Superb foot massage! I fall asleep when i was doing foot massage

Thanks. Googled them and seems they are in Khaosan.
Do you have a phone number for them?

Edit: Found this. Mama Travel

I'm guessing you have to go there in person to buy the tickets?
Also, 900B for Siam Niramit was for the show only and not dinner?

Having been to Hatyai & BKK, I find clothes in Hatyai r more expensive n mostly came from BKK. It cost between 100 - 399 THB. Choices r rather not so UPDATE. I mean not so many choices for youngsters but you can find a lot for age 50s - 60s +. I 'll rather shop in BKK ,more choices more varieties n cheaper. In fact hawkers food is cheaper in BKK

Yeap. Agreed 100% Even Bangkok cloths is cheaper than those in Chiang Mai nite bazaar.

BTW, not only BKK is cheaper than Hatyai interm of clothing but also food as well. Food in Hatyai is infact more expensibe than KL!! In BKK, the prior to 2008 is slightly cheaper than KL..no idea after the fuel price inflation after 2007? I was told by my friends returning last year, the price is almost the same as KL dy..

Anyway, for souvenir T-shirst, tghe pricing in BKK is not cheap compare to KL...In KL u can get RM5 each but in BKK, the cheapest ~90bath!

O ya...the food around Lee Garden Plaza Hotel cost 50THB per bowl (be it noodle or rice).The portion is only small portion like Penang. Their Leng Chee Kang also @ 50THB a bowl (not big bowl but small). Almost everything is 50THB (MOre than KL)This is the latest pricing (Feb 2010). Hotels were up 40 - 50% during CNY. However if u were to tvl out of city centre you will be able to get food @ 35THB for noodles. And the buffet BBQ @ 80THB. And another place to have cheaper food & shopping is to go to night market (per thai- sounds like petai).

Chiang Mai clothes oso fr BKK or China. Slightly higher than BKK. Food in Chiang Mai & Chaing Rai r much much cheaper. And tuk tuk (songtheaw) within Chiang mai city is only 15THB. Hatyai is 20THB.

Anyway, those going to Thailand expecting cheaper than M'sian pricing will be dissapointed & those so happy wth the price they got probably forgetting that RM1 is not thb10 but only thb9.5 & ther're lotsa things cheaper in M'sia compare to Thailand..Oh BTW, Thailand executive avg salary also higher than avg M'sian executive salry hor...My Thai local colleague is getting avg THB30K-THB40K /mth in BKK...compare to avg Rm2500-RM3000 in M'sia!

Just came back . Well the hotel (Grand President) is really great and located at Sukhumit Soi 11 where u can find many good restaurant. One German Beer Res; Japanese, Australia and etc.

The weather is hot and floating market is a bit of disappointment.

I wrote email and book via email

900B only for show

Email address?
How did you pay? If by cc, weren't you concerned about sending your cc details via email?
I assume you were sent a voucher by email and you showed the voucher at Nirmait's "will-call" ticketing booth?

thks

email add= mamatour1@hotmail.com

Nope. Only pay them upon pick up at hotel (in Cash).

actually i visit BKK at least twice a year.

if 2 of u going around in the city, it is very cheap to use a taxi (insist to use meter, if they refuse, just look for another one, there r plenty of taxi in BKK, dun wory).

i always stay in Pratunam area, from my hotel to Suanlum nite mkt, only costs around 50bahts +- for taxi one way. if go to chatuchak, it will cost less than 100bahts. if go to china town also less than 100 bahts, if traffic jam, maybe extra for 20-30bahts, so what is the point to use skytrain or mrt, unless ur budget is really tight.

I am going to Bangkok this Monday, I want to buy Onitsuka Tiger there..
Where can I get it and it cost me how much?

im planning to go bangkok in May..already bought the ticket and all but didnt quite settle with the hotel. since my partner and i are going for a shopping trip , we will mostly linger around pratunam area which i heard a paradise for wholesale stuff.

any good and cheap hotel u would recommend in that area? probably ones near the shopping area. is Citin Pratunam any good?

thaks in advance~
