Thailand Traveler guide

Politely walk away from hawkers if any of them approaches you for a bargain tour. These hawkers, who might present themselves to you as drivers, are infamous for putting drugs into the food or drinks of their customers so they can rob them of their valuables while they are under the influence of drugs.

If ever you encounter touts like these, report them immediately to the Royal Thai Police (Tel. nos. 02-276-2950 or 02-691-4057). The Royal Thai Police’s headquarters is at Hotline Center Foundation, 145/6 Hotline Villa Viphavadi-Rangsit 20 Road Chatuchak, Bangkok, Thailand.
