Persiapan Jalan Jalan Ke Bangkok 4 Hari 3 Malam Puas

Ini pertama kalinya saya dan istri jalan-jalan ke Bangkok sendiri tanpa tour guide. Jadi bisa lebih santai dan hemat. Tentu saja kami riset dulu bila ingin jalan sendiri ke Bangkok, Thailand. Persiapan yang diperlukan adalah:

• Paspor (Paspor yang masih berlaku minimal 6 bulan pada hari keberangkatan)


• Tiket pesawat


• Voucher Hotel


• Voucher Event


• Mata uang Dollar Amerika dan Bath Thailand


• Info-info bagaimana naik BTS, MRT, Airport Link, dan Boat


• Pulpen dan Notes


• Kamera, Topi (Bangkok di bulan maret-juni cuacanya panas)

Kami berangkat pada tanggal 14 Maret 2013 dan kembali ke Jakarta tanggal 17 Maret 2013. Kebetulan sekali ada penawaran dari TigerAirways (Mandala) Beli 1 Gratis 1, jadi saya pesan 2 tiket pesawat dengan ongkos sekitar 2,4 juta rupiah pada tanggal 31 Januari 2013.

Setelah tiket pesawat, kami coba booking hotel via agoda. Karena belum pernah tahu ibukota Bangkok seperti apa, maka yang kami cari pertama kali adalah hotel yang dekat dengan BTS atau MRT. Kami survei beberapa hotel dari agoda maupun tripadvisor. Pilihan pertama kami jatuh pada losmen (guest house) di daerah Thong Lo, Sukhumvit yakni Padi Madi Guest House. Kami booking untuk 2 malam. Kemudian booking Unico Premier Metrolink, di daerah Makassan, untuk 1 malam.

Oya cara survei secara virtual seperti apa kota bangkok bisa melihat di google maps, nah ketik bangkok thailand. Kalao ada icon orang berwarna kuning keemasan, silakan geser dan letakkan di jalan yang diinginkan. Nanti akan muncul deh google street seperti gambar seperti ini.

Di Bangkok, tempat wisata yang wajib dikunjungi adalah Grand Palace, Emerald Budha, Wat Po, dan Wat Arun. Lokasi tempat ini berdekatan. Selain itu ada tempat lain yakni patung lilin di Madame Tussauds di dalam mall Siam Discovery dan tempat belanja Ma Boon Krong (MBK) Mall.

Untuk kegiatan malam, kami coba dinner cruise di sungai Chao Phraya dan menonton atraksi Siam Niramit.

Tiket dinner cruise kalau beli di loynava.com lumayan mahal, bisa 1600 Bath per orang. Saya coba beli tiket murah secara online di http://www.hotels2thailand.com/bangkok-day-trips/loy-nava-dinner-cruises.asp dan jatuhnya untuk berdua sekitar 2.631 Bath. Jadi per orang hemat 300 Bath! Hebatnya lagi si hotel2thailand ini, ketika saya mau booking untuk tanggal 14 Maret 2013 via web sudah tidak bisa (saya mau booking pada tanggal 13 Maret, 1 hari sebelum berangkat). Namun ketika saya kontak via email, akhirnya saya bisa melakukan pembayaran dari link yang disediakan via email menggunakan PayPal!


Begitu pula dengan tiket Siam Niramit lebih murah di hotels2thailand.com, hemat 300 Bath! Kalo beli di tempat pertunjukan seharga 1.500 Bath. Beli di http://www.hotels2thailand.com/bangkok-show-event/siam-niramit-bangkok.asp cuma 1.200 Bath per orang.

Oke berangkat! ke Jalan-jalan ke Bangkok 4 Hari 3 Malam Puas Bagian 1
