08 March, Phuket, Thailand, Bangkok, PP 7-day 5-night family trip (1)

Last November with Hao hao to Guilin tour, Li River Cruise, I'm going to 2008 to Thailand tours.

Because this is the first time to the foreign tours, and the children before and after the Spring Festival, so do the homework. See more travel N, or the Internet gave some problem, got everyone's help, in this one and thanks the trip tours and experiences documented, as we travel, in particular parents and children to swim family provides some lessons.

Preparations

Select travel destination

02 years to LP with the group to once in Thailand, the destination is Bangkok and wire dia.

This leisure tour select pugi, PP and Bangkok, Phuket, is planning to ride elephants and see the magic number, the PP Island Beach leisure activities, visit the Grand Palace in Bangkok, adults and children have got to play, it is more suitable for the first time abroad to play with children, will stay beautiful, impressive.

Select hotel

Choose Hotel is mainly looked at the following Web site

1. There are many online www.ctrip.com ctrip predecessors on the related comments of the hotel, where you can learn about hotel price/performance ratio.

The disadvantage is that the choice is not a lot, some netizens recommend hotels do not. Such as tropical bungalow hotel Phuket (Tropica Bungalow Hotel)

2. Select Chinese page http://www.hoteltravel.com, choice of hotel more, its biggest advantage is that you can see the hotel location map of the specific distribution.

There are Chinese and English online services, English is 24 hours.

3. www.agoda.com have Chinese language interface and Chinese language online service.

The price is cheaper than the hoteltravel. E.g. 12/25 Internet Search 3/5 price: Tropica Bungalow Hotel price for USD65/day, PP Holiday USD175/day, including breakfast; the same condition that hoteltravel respectively 78 and 210.

4.http://www.formyhotel.com/fengmai/

5.http://www.asiarooms.com/thailand/

Compare, for easy, finally booked ctrip packages:

1. Phuket 3 nights: Alba East holiday village (Patong Resort), deluxe room.

Mainly its convenient geographical location, away from Phuket's largest shopping mall Jungceylon shopping mall (with Carrefour, Kazakhstan with DAS, Starbuck, Burger King and Pizza, Robinson, etc.) is only 10 minutes away. My days in Phuket, the square every day to go shopping and dining. Book deluxe room, mainly read user comments that standard room and General, practical, deluxe room feeling is good.

2.PP Island 1 night: PP Island Resort (Holiday Inn Resort Phi Phi Island), the garden room.

Users a high praise. Although the traffic is convenient, than the general competition Bay Hotel to 45 minutes, but I think it was worth it.

3. Bangkok 1 night: muck hotel (Hotel De Moc), senior housing.

The main focus of its geographical location, away from the Grand Palace. But the actual experience is in addition to the advantages, the rest are unsatisfactory. The hotel is extremely bad attitude of service (whether or not the only night reason), the next time you won't go.

Select flights

Shanghai Airlines and China Eastern Airlines direct flight to Phuket's aircraft are red eye flights, considering the daily wage laborer with kids, are not considered, and the price is not very good.

There are also friends said to Xiamen, Shanghai, and Asia, it is said that price is the cheapest, but also the time, several times turning point, and so is not suitable for children, there is no concern. Thai Airways becomes preferred.

Ctrip packages Phuket, in Thailand, Bangkok, PP 7-day 5-night buffet line of Thai Airways flight time is good, when is the day, but also to Phuket for dinner.

Considerations

L Thailand taboo

1. the untouchable Thailand Thailand people (including children) head, unavailable feet to refer to things that are not health drinking water.

2. Thailand Buddhist countries, men 's, women's homelessness must not touch the monk's body, otherwise it will damage his spiritual practice.

Visit the Buddhist temple, to wear trousers (long), you cannot show your arm and leg.

3. Thailand traffic driving left row 駛 with us on the contrary, the mall across the road to the right and then look at the first note to the left.

L accommodation:

1. money, passport and expensive goods, placed in the room provides a safe, because in the event of loss of property, it is difficult to find.

2. recommends that the check-in, let the attendant small bars emptied everything, so that the billing dispute occurred.

3. hotel have free use of bath towels, sailing don't forget borrow.

L dining: don't take the Raiders, to find a restaurant and big trouble.

Met is fate, deliberately to sometimes very disappointed.

L transport: light rail and subway is the fastest, but the line is fixed and the price is not cheap, depending on the distance General single take 15-40baht/time, if

If two or more travel than a taxi is also expensive.

By light rail and Metro are self-service ticketing. The difference is that the light rail will only accept coins, and the Metro you can use the notes and coins. Thailand's currency is below $ 10, $ 20 coin to start are the notes. If you want to travel by rail instead of coins, you can help the help desk next to the camera. Subway station information desk not only can you redeem, you can directly purchase.

L shopping:

1. East along the Alba Beach Thaweewong Road to buy some characteristic of Thai silk products back away.

Specialties cardanol is Phuket, you can buy back the evacuation of people, including some fish do.

2. a woman you can buy a piece of yarn, put it in a cage, elegant appearance.

Carrefour Carrefour are open from 10: 00-22: 00. Inside the fruit, water, and other less expensive. 7-11 in Nivea (NI 维亚) SPF50, is the most common sunscreen.

3. General shopping centre, visitors can passports in customer service center for a tourist privalige.

You can play 95%, sometimes, the shop will give you cash for when active tourist privalige card.

4. Thailand clothes and shoes of sizes are smaller than China,

5. refund: tourists in Thailand to purchase merchandise, returned to claim a refund of VAT 7%.

In the purchase of the "vat refund for tourists" logo merchandise and on the day in a shop (available at different counters, invoices are the store 's) consumption, in the full 2000B shopping day Passport fills out a "VAT Refund Application for tax refund application Form passenger Tourist", and then print one "ORIGINAL TAX INVOICES original tax voucher" (service or rebate special counters at P.P.10 form and receipt, ask a clerk fill two rebate forms, and the invoice is posted in the form, the seal), when the same passport application for a refund under the accumulation of goods worth more than 5000 baht, on the day of departure to the airport tax refund can be. Do not exceed the taxes to 3000B THB cash or bank draft or card huazhang, more than it can only be used after 3000B in two ways, these are charged a handling fee of $ 100B in each, and the cost of bills of Exchange Huazhang. Note: you should use the same Passport profile completing the application form to set limits; only in checkout stations payment of merchandise shopping malls counters, and those paid for directly at the counter is private counter, expense amount will not be logged into the cumulative amounts.

Specialties: l Phuket

Cashew nuts: the island's most famous products, harvested must be dried, hulled, cooking, drying, peeled, 5 road clearance after modified system into a variety of different flavors of cashew nuts.

There are more than 15 different flavors of cashew nuts, more popular are: honey cashew nuts, garlic butter, cashew nuts, cashew nuts, the salt taste cashew nuts, cashew nut, coconut fragrance is relatively rare with chili and cashew nuts, coffee, cashew nuts, chocolate cashew nuts, Sesame cashew nuts, cashew refreshingly flavor.

Dried fruit: Thailand abounds in many tropical fruits and produce some taste unique dried fruit.

More surprising is the tomato stem, lemon and honey melon, taste a bit strange, other like papaya, mango, peaches, bananas, guava, star fruit, plums, pineapples, made of dried fruit is more common, however, merely the papaya has five different tastes, enough pride.

Shrimp cake: Phuket Island shrimp cake and generally Southeast Asian shrimp cake is a bit different, a plus of spinach bake.

Kiss larvae: rich in calcium Kiss larvae, local people will snap to the kiss larval fish fried, crispy crisp crispy taste very good.

L Exchange:

1.

Patong resort Hotel at the entrance a sentry box purple convertible currencies, 11: 00-22: 00.

2. the nominal value of the dollar: belongs to the largest denomination 50,100 currency, exchange rates.

It is said that the 96 years ago, with 96 Edition and B2 typeface is very difficult to change. It is said that 200 Pee Road road Rat-U-Thit UOB (near Carrefour, bar street end) rate is higher

3. find PATOON, KATA, KARON with UnionPay logo on the ATM.

Find ATM, UnionPay logo, can directly remove Thai strains.

In PP is no ATM on the island.

Note: the Green and Red (red, red rose is not, nor is it pink) ATM machines would have different bank Cup, with different colors such as green is TM ABC, one K, very good read. China Merchants Bank cash withdrawal is recommended!

4. the Bangkok Bank website www.bangkokbank.

com。 In Bangkok can be directly used for RMB in the SUPER RICH, cost-efficient than domestic Bank of China! (its Web site: www.superrich1965.com).

5.

ATM machines from baht: only display card balance (baht), so remember to Kari renminbi balance. Don't you forget about currency exchange machine as ATM machines, both very like (more than 30% less). Bangkok airport in the "simulation" ATM machine, be careful!

ATM machine by baht a day every day is the maximum equivalent in local currency, RMB5000 with UnionPay signs UnionPay ATM, insert Cup card can select prompt language is Chinese.

There are of course UnionPay logo, otherwise go preferred VISA line also another currency conversion. Union pay fees are costing, minimum 10 Yuan. Because of the practical withdrawing money limit is $ 10 per pen. Exchange rate on the date of the sale price by the mark.

Note: only one card through card.

(China UnionPay card, press 0.5% offsite ATM fees, rates each minimum charge of $ 10. )

6. credit cards and payment cards: now there are many merchants can use the mark, but you have to ask the RMB exchange rate used in payment, is not fair, you decided to use.

Cue everybody, even the duty free shop, you may exchange rate is different. Have friends in siam city and airport of king power duty free shop shopping, basis payment selection of different exchange rate of RMB, or Cup card visa credit card.
