Just go in a agent nearest to your hotel
Agent in street by hotel.. always haggle ?
Yhere are like a million travel agents eveeywhere u can even bargain with them for cheaper trips lol
Best deal I got was from a kiosk outside hotel
The only time I use travel agents is when putting together groups and excursions as they make coordinating everything so much easier and the added cost for what they provide is well worth it and is added to the package price. But for personal travel I always prefer to do my own research and own book the entire trip. It allows me to travel my way and It gives me control to save money on the things that are not important to me while allowing me the flexibility to splurge on the things that are.
We book ourselves
book myself….stay with couchsurfing and explore with ppl from the localites community.
People think they’re booking themselves without going through travel agents are in about 80% of cases misstaken lol….most are actually attached to a physical travel agent who provides the intel for the online bookings……One of the most hated travel agents in the UK Southall Travel has alone 7 online booking websites including one of the biggest Travel Trolley…..”online” agents dont just spring up lol
You could do Bangkok, Krabi, phi phi, Phuket or Bangkok, Koh Samui, Koh Phangan, Koh Tao, Hua Hin then back to Bangkok…loads of places routes etc
Book ourselves always works out cheaper
use Syscanner for your flights and any of the Booking sites for your rooms . travel is **cheap** in thailand hence why so many flit about to different places and areas . your flight will prob land in Bangkok ., from there work out what you would like to do fabulous mountains , scenery . culturee . or islands beaches etc and plan from there ….
Ok. I treat it like a sport. I use both and sometimes play off against each other. I always pre plan trips well in advance. Always book accommodation first with booking.com using the pay later option. Reason being the final payment will be in baht. You can play the currency fluctuation game and cancel and re book and save all the time. For airfares I go either way. Sometimes agents will have a no interest payment plan and that’s when I spoil myself and book business class. Use their money not mine for a while. Other than that I book direct with Singapore airlines and use the loyalty programs As I said it’s a game I play to help time go quick in between trips and might save some beer money ?
