Bangkok (City Guide)


by: Andrew Burke, Austin Bush
I've relied on LP for over 10 years of traveling, and generally think that their publication is better than Moon, Rough Guide, etc.
Since I now live in Bangkok, I feel qualified to review this book. This version is definitely not up to the usual LP standard. I understand that Bangkok changes quickly, but the locations of temples and such do not change (one example - Wat Phra Si Sanphet in Ayuthaya is about a kilometer off). They have also mislabeled restaurants and they sight a restaurant that is apparently right next to my house in Silom.

LUXE Bangkok


by: LUXE City Guides
Fantastic guides! Pocket size and easy to follow. The writers are hilarious and the shopkeepers are very appreciative when you walk in carrying the guide. They give you ideas on where to go, what to eat and where to shop, that other guides do not provide!

The only thing missing is an actual map!
