Customer Reviews Average Rating: 
Rating:  - A great guide
I went to Thailand for the first time with a backpack and this book. I used it almost daily. It was extremely helpful for my entire trip. Whether I was lost in the middle of town, looking for a cheap restaurant, or needing to kill a giant insect in my hostel this book was there. The writers obviously know what they're talking about.

Rating: - Great All Around Guide!

They replaced this section with a section with picture of people riding on elephants and scenery that don't really tell you much.
The reason why I did ... Read More
Rating:  - Tiny font, too thin paper, biased towards low budget travelers
This is the worst guidebook I've had the misfortune to buy; if I had the time, I would have returned it.Unless you have perfect vision the entire book is printed in a tiny font on very thin paper, making it hard on the eyes.The reviews are incredibly biased, totally slanted towards travelers who want to eat street food, stay in backpacker or budget accommodations... It does not take disabilities, age or food allergies into consideration & assumes, in a rather mean-spirited manner, that if you ... Read More
