Its kinda a long story, but a very friendly man stopped us on the steet and started talking to us. And he said that he is returning to his home in Chang Mai after he vacationed in Ko Samui. Then I said "cool, i was thinking of visiting Ko Samui". Then he proceeded to tell me that im lucky i met him and it's bhudda day and this Student Travel Agency is offering a 30% discount. i said we are on a thight budget, he said, "no problem! cheap cheap!" He kept insisting it was only for today. After talking awhile, he mentioned other tours. Elephant trekking, tiger temple, etc... He said the fireworks show was going to start in two hours for the budda day and the travel agency would close, he was urging that "We GO NOW!" I was curious to see the prices and I said ok, conveniently a tuk tuk comes down the street and we approach it and he waives the guy to stop then he tells him in thai where we should go. He said 60 baht, then the man said "no no 40!" then soething in thai, then the driver agreed. We arrived to the travel agency after a scary ride then the lady there spoke int eh same kind of way the guy did chinese/thai or something like that. Kinda leads me to believe they are related or married. Anyway to keep a long story short, the started with very high prices, around 20,000 baht for 2 weeks in Ko Samui and Ko Phangan. Eventually down to around 10,000. 11,000 for elephant trekking. She was very pushy and it was difficult to get outta the place. Once I was walking out the door she was rude and in a bad mood.Adamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08856419083546927757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-502513296455888830.post-1421174037986664542010-02-09T23:32:38.235+08:002010-02-09T23:32:38.235+08:00LOL!
