really honest
have you ever been walking around the city here in Bangkok and the
tuk-tuk drivers will come up to you and offer you a one-hour tour of the city
for 40 baht and you think how is that even possible well today we're gonna find out
I'm just looking around
one hour I think how much is one hour
nice okay
yeah what about 60. okay
all right here we go this should be interesting
foreign
new one for the board have both allow for now for now one hour one hour and two hour
looking soon okay so first up we're just on our way to go look at a suit store apparently
which is no real surprise so he said just go and check out this store we'll cruise around
after it's gonna take me down to the river and just take me on a bit of a tour through Bangkok
okay thank you so just come into like a suit store is ask me to go in have a look around
check the place out so I don't need to buy anything but just go in and have a look oh yes
I'm from Australia kangaroo land yes
yeah from Sydney how much can can you tell me how much they are depend on the material you can get
around approximately 5 000 around 5 000 Baht yes sir okay and how long do they take to make
at least four or five days four or five days okay awesome thank you very much
so I just had a little look around in the suit store they were actually quite cool I thought
they were going to be like super pushy or whatever I was really I was only in there
for like two minutes max I guess so I took a card and told them that if I do get a suit
this is where I'll come back to get a suit and they were cool so yeah on to the next adventure
5 000 Baht and actually I've gotten suits from Thailand before that was surprisingly
good I don't ever need to wear a suit anymore but when I first got them I didn't expect
them to be that good I think they were a bit cheaper when I got them but this is
years ago but I was really surprised at the Quality and how long it actually lasted
so come around now to another suit score so let's go have a look at this place too nice
to meet you nice to meet you what is your name boss we had the showroom upstairs okay where'd
it come from I'm from Australia very good Sydney Melbourne Canberra Sydney very good my friend
oh wow now if you don't have more time so quick decision choose the material at the exercise
all suit like this single breasted two button okay how much not Australia price don't worry
yeah yeah yeah ten thousand bar okay good one a nice lining European quality 150 coolant cashmere
ah look now I need to look around a little bit can you tell me oh no no today today I'm exciting um
because I'm traveling within two five minute time measure you run that road
it's okay come no problem thank you but thank you so that was all right that was a little bit
more pushy in there but it's all good so the way this works is the tuk-tuk drivers
they actually get like they get a card or get some money from these suit stores if they take
them in I think it's like petrol coupons or whatever so you can see out the front of here
all tuk-tuks lined up to show people in there so the guy he's asking me to take my measurements
and he's like let me take your measurements and I'll mock up a suit for you and as soon
as I was saying like no no I'm not interested in that it got a little bit shorter with me
and then it was kind of over after that anyway having fun so let's jump back into talk and see
what's next today they they give you money or like petrol coupon coupon for fuel fuel coupon
So the plan is now gonna go check out one more suit store and then off to go have some lunch I
told him I buy him some lunch he's going to show me an Isan restaurant that he likes to eat at and
then I'm gonna get dropped at MBK afterwards okay this one all right one last Saw he says

good thank you
so this is my driver Lou he's taking me around we're having a great time and I wanted to take
him out for lunch to thank him for this adventure who's taking me on I'm having a whole lot of fun
so it took me to a restaurant that he really likes it's all it's on food and I'm dying to try it
ah awesome Lance it's cool to visit a random place like this I would
never have found or even come to a place like this and I really enjoyed that food
thank you
okay sir
all right he had to leave like straight away because the police came and he was
stopping in a no stopping zone so is that a good way to do sightseeing and see the city
I mean yes and no like it's kind of an adventure you get driven all around the
city you get to see the city from being in a talk talk but you know in terms of going
to sites and doing sightseeing there's not a whole lot you will be making those
stops you'll stop sort of three times but for two dollars what do you expect
so that was quite a bit of fun you know the original price that we agreed on was 60 bar
and it was going to take me around for an hour I ended up giving him 300 bucks because I had
I had a great time it was a cool experience and he was so nice you know we had to make
those stops but that's all part of what you do and you know I I enjoyed that adventure and it
looks like I'm gonna get a free suit out of it so that's unbelievable so do I recommend doing
one of these tuk-tuk tours I mean yes but I only do it for the experience don't do it to go see
all the sides of the city or if you do want to do it just to see the sides then negotiate
a price that means you won't be stopping off at any of these other places and they will do
that for you another thing I'll say is to take control while you're on the tour so I told him
the places I wanted to go to and I got him to drop you here at MBK instead of back from
where he picked me up from and he was cool to do that as well but yeah what an adventure foreign
