2011 September Travel: Bangkok Day 2 – Siam Niramit

Post your comments: Nobody has commented yet, kick it off...

After a long day in Ancient Siam, we watched the best cultural show in Thailand: Siam Niramit. We only got the Show tickets without the buffet since we don’t want to stuff ourselves again. We bought it thru Nim for just Bht 1100 and that includes the transfers. This is cheaper compared to the published rates displayed infront of the entrance gate.

On our second day, we are set for an adventure in Bangkok. It’s our cultural field trip! It’s the day we will learn and explore the culture of the Kingdom.

2011 September Travel: Bangkok Day 1 – City Tour and River Cruise

Post your comments: 8 people had their say - be the next!

We arrived in Bangkok Airport at 11pm. We exited at Gate A and our hotel service was in Gate C! It was a huge airport but big signs are all over the place so you won’t get lost.

After an hour and so, we arrived in Four Seasons Plaza. At first we were hesitant to go down since the look of the place is not the one we were expecting. In the website, you’ll see a sign that says “Four Seasons International House”. However, that night what we … [ Continue reading 2011 September Travel: Bangkok Day 1 – City Tour and River Cruise ]

True to my goal this year, I wanted to visit Bangkok! Luckily, my friend Reg booked a low fare flight in Cebu Pacific that made our trip possible. Again, as usual our trip was a DIY plan so we were able to experience the joy and difficulty of commuting in Bangkok.
