Bangkok!! Nightmare!!
Hi guys, sorry to hear about all your scams in BKK. I know how you feel, the first time in BKK for me was a nightmare. Luckily I never fell for any scams but I related to everything you said!! I so didnt want to do the Floating Markets, but did it with Tong (private guide) and was glad I went. We werent hassled, had our own non-motorised small boat and saw areas that werent at all touristy! We also used a guide for the temples/palaces and werent hassled along the way! Next time huh!!!! Safe travels! xx
