What are the tourist traps in Thailand?

In Thailand, when people think of this place, they will think of traveling. Indeed, in recent years, Thailand's tourism fever has only increased, and it will gradually surpass other countries, especially China tourists, who like Thailand very much.

However, where there are many tourists, things will follow. Many tourists from China came to Thailand to tell their stories about the massacre, which affected their mood of traveling here. So what should we do? To avoid being slaughtered?

Next, Bian Xiao will sort it out for you. What are the tourist traps in Thailand?

Adult show fraud

When domestic tourists go to Thailand, many people tremble with excitement when they hear the "adult show" and "shemale show". The last trace of reason was forgotten. Generally speaking, adult show fraud mainly occurs near Patpong night market.

In fact, there are many adult show shops in Thailand, as long as they are on the first floor, they are basically passable. But if it's the second floor, everyone will be making money for themselves.

To tell the truth, the adult show in Bangkok is nothing to see, even disgusting. To see these shemale shows, go to Pattaya, where there is a well-known and decent adult show, which is much higher than the adult show in Bangkok in terms of venue, content design and the quality of performers.

Water sports fraud

Traveling to Thailand and playing in the sea is the most important thing. There are water activities everywhere, such as jet skis, banana boats and so on. Some enterprises make a fuss about water sports equipment.

Take jet skiing as an example. When you ride a motorcycle, another person will secretly follow you and then deliberately rub your car. When returning the motorboat, the black-hearted shop will say that the motorcycle is damaged and the paint falls off, and it will be compensated. Usually it's 30 thousand baht.

If you don't want to, he will show you the simple contract you signed when renting a motorboat, as well as damages and so on.

To prevent this kind of fraud, it is best to find a trusted boatman when renting a car. You can also ask the boatman to send a coach to take you riding when renting a boat, so that even if something goes wrong, it is not your problem.

DuDu car scam

When visiting downtown Bangkok, many China tourists will take tuk-tuk buses with local characteristics. Sometimes you will find that the driver is very enthusiastic. While introducing you to various scenic spots and city features, he will also tell you some unknown historical sites.

If you are tempted, let him take you there, generally only 50- 100 baht is enough. It doesn't look like a scam.

But when you go to those scenic spots, such as where the so-called monks live, and ask the monks to pray for you, you will find that the money or mobile phone in the bag put aside is missing.

Or go to an unknown art gallery and be forced to buy a pile of garbage and leave. This kind of scam is very common in Bangkok, and it usually occurs near the Grand Palace, Jade Buddha Temple, Reclining Buddha Temple, National Museum, Siam Museum and other major places of interest or museums.

In fact, just ignore the tuk-tuk drivers who take the initiative to chat up.

Massage scam

Many people in China know about thai massage, and they yearn for it. In some busy alleys in Bangkok, there are often many "managers" of massage shops who come out to pull business and tell you that there is a 50% discount today.

When promised to go for a massage, the "manager" will say that the money will be collected first before the massage. Don't give him money at this time! These are liars! Pay the money after enjoying the massage.

Therefore, if you want to try friends in thai massage, you'd better choose a well-known and large-scale massage shop, and ignore strangers who come up to chat up inexplicably. Finally, walk into the counter and pay, so nothing will happen.

Barmaid and Princess Station

As the saying goes, "There is a knife on the head of the color word", and many men are "showing their true colors" when they arrive in Thailand, and they specialize in drilling around the red light district and bar street. Moreover, these places are originally a mixed place with many religions and nine streams. Naturally, there are also traps for money.

Many princesa will negotiate the price with the guests, and when they return to their rooms, they will put drugs in their drinks. Then, while the guests were unconscious, they searched the house and left.

If you don't want to be cheated, be a gentleman! Watch adult programs, don't go whoring, or there will be problems even if you are not cheated back!

Bypass taxi

Taxis detour everywhere, which is a worldwide problem for strangers. What should I do if this happens?

To tell the truth, you can't lose much money on this scam. For a generous friend, it is equivalent to a sightseeing activity in Bangkok.

If you don't want to, you can plan the route early in the morning, such as Google Maps on your mobile phone, make a navigation, show it to the driver when you get on the bus, and ask if it's the right way.

Feeding the Doves

The Grand Palace in Bangkok is a must for tourists. There are many places to feed pigeons nearby. Many vendors there are very clever. When they see China people, they will rush over and put corn kernels in your hand. Don't answer it at this time. You have to pay whether you feed or not.

At least 150 baht! This kind of scam mainly tests your reaction ability. Anyway, when someone hands you something, just don't pick it up subconsciously. It's not like Tibetans gave you Hada!

Don't take pictures everywhere.

Tebi is a stall in Thailand's night market. The shopkeeper is waiting for the arrival of this "tourist talent". As soon as you take a photo, he will give you something immediately, forcing you to buy it, which is equivalent to buying and selling it. The price is naturally non-negotiable!

In fact, on the whole, Thailand is still a warm, friendly and smiling country. As for these problems, there are only more tourists. These drawbacks will naturally occur, but only a few. I hope everyone will travel to Thailand, keep their eyes open and observe carefully, so as not to be slaughtered and affect their mood.
