Suggested Bangkok Tours with Sanong

Bangkok
International Airport
|
Sample itinerary for
you first day.
I will meet and greet you at the airport on you
arrival.
From the airport I will whisk you to your hotel to
check in, freshen up and deposit your traveling bags.
I would strongly recommend that
you deposit any valuables, passports and other such items in the Hotel
safe.
Once
you have freshened up (and if we have time) I can then greet you at the
Hotel and I would recommend that we visit a local market to familiarize
yourself with the local currency, local customs, and street traders and
to get your bearings in relation to the Hotel.
During
this excursion I will advise you on bargaining shops for everyday
necessities, and point out local safe eating places within easy reach
of your Hotel. This would be an ideal mini introduction to Bangkok City.
During this time we could plan for the next day and arrange suitable
tour times.
