What annoying things have you encountered when traveling with a group in Thailand?

Thailand is a country with very beautiful scenery. Traveling here should be a happy thing, but I chose to travel in a group, which made my trip very bad. 1. Shopping scams

Tourists traveling abroad are often taken to "duty-free shops" for shopping. However, these shops are not all home appliance stores or drugstores run by some large local commercial companies. These "duty-free shops" employ a large number of Chinese employees. The prices of goods are several times higher than those in regular stores. They also print advertisements that exaggerate the effects of healthy food to lure Chinese tourists to spend money to buy these hugely profitable goods. Because many tour guides cooperate with these stores and share the profits from the items they buy, so don’t buy a bunch of expensive and useless things when traveling in a group. Like me, it will be too late to regret it.

2. Cheating at your own expense

Travel agencies often sell so-called "low-price tours", but in fact after arriving at the destination, you will find that the tour guides charge money wherever you go. After a few days, the actual money paid to the travel agency and tour guide may have already exceeded the cost of the group registration. No matter how careful I am, I can't beat the travel agency's "cheating". 3. Food and accommodation fraud

Travel agencies use labels such as "quasi-three-star hotel", "unlisted three-star hotel" and "equivalent to domestic standard three-star" to obscure tourists. There is a big difference between the actual hotel and the three-star hotel. gap. 4. Itinerary fraud

"Pinch off the beginning and end" is a common deception used by travel agencies to shorten the actual itinerary, such as "5 nights and 6 days Japan tour". Domestic travel agencies will not arrange flights departing in the morning at all, but will arrange The flight departs in the afternoon and arrives at the destination in the evening. After arriving at the airport, you will be taken directly to the hotel to rest. On the day of return, the travel agency arranged more flights in the morning and dragged tourists to the airport hotel the night before. I was unable to go out for fun or shopping that morning. The so-called "5 nights and 6 days" is actually only 4 days.

To sum up the above four points, this trip made me very disappointed. When I encountered these things that made me sad, I learned a lesson and will never travel with a group again next time.
