"As others have pointed out, this book is way too big for the average tourist. It also, strangely, lacks many pictures. If you're going for under a few weeks and want to hit lots of the big sites, go with the Lonely Planet Discover Thailand (Travel Guide) instead. It'll save your back not to have to lug around the bigger book. You can then look online for more off-the-beaten-path ideas. If you're thinking of moving to Thailand, this seems a great resource."

- I 'm usually a big fan of lonely planet's travel guides but this one was more a source of annoyance than of help. I have to say that I bought the version, which probably made things worse.
We spent most of the time in Northern Thailand and the coverage for that area was extremely spotty. Yes, the guide covers the tourist magnets but when you venture just a little bit outside (and not far) there is very little information. Chiang Mai is covered well, but the way this chapter is structured makes it a major pain on a . All information is listed by geographical sections of Chiang Mai, and it was really difficult to navigate the information on the because you always only see one page. I had to endlessly scroll back and forth to see in which section I am.
Another issue was that the cities, towns and points of interest were often spelled differently in the guide than they are spelled on the official street signs or popular maps (sometimes Lonely Planet uses a completely different name, that maybe is theoretically correct but is completely useless in practice when nobody else uses that name). Therefore often it was almost impossible to even find something in the guide with the search function because obviously doesn't find anything that is spelled different even by one character.
Therefore - this is a clear "not recommend" for me. Worst Lonely Planet guide by far in the big collection of mine. - Extremely detailed and a must have guide. I planned my entire trip to Thailand based on this book. Hidden secrets, amazing foodie spots and getaways!
I had a trip planned, when I received this book, it all changed, a ton of locations that are not talked about and are just as good!
The size of the book fits into my hand (I have big hands) If the weight of the book, or the size of the book is the problem, maybe you should cut your trip down to a few days only. As a backpacker, this is a MUST HAVE.
5/5 GREAT! - As others have pointed out, this book is way too big for the average tourist. It also, strangely, lacks many pictures. If you're going for under a few weeks and want to hit lots of the big sites, go with the Lonely Planet Discover Thailand (Travel Guide) instead. It'll save your back not to have to lug around the bigger book. You can then look online for more off-the-beaten-path ideas. If you're thinking of moving to Thailand, this seems a great resource.
- I spent 5 weeks in Thailand in 2010 and my lonely planet guide made the difference between a good trip and a great trip! I felt like I had an insiders view into local culture. I'm planning my return trip, and it has been really cool to see the updates for places I traveled to nearly nine years ago (they also seem to be consistent with website updates for some of my most memorable adventures). This book is great for both the budget and no-expense-spared traveler as it will let you in on the local secrets!
- This was a NECESSITY on my trip to Thailand. I read the entire thing over on my plane ride there and felt SUPER informed, 10x more informed than I already was from searching through thousands of search engines before my trip. There are so many recommendations of places to go and things to see. Also, many off the beaten path places to visit. I would totally recommend getting this if you are planing to visit Thailand. It will definitely come in handy, especially when you don't have cell service and need a good old fashioned book / pull out map to help you out.
- Who wants to carry a guidebook that weighs as much as a phone book on their month-long trip to Thailand? Not me. Sent it back when I saw the guide's size (and weight).
- This book is so helpful, especially when traveling to remote areas, like Thailand, where you may not have wifi or cell service. It has all the highlights you need. I just wish it had more color imagery to get you more excited about some of the places.
- Definitely a big book, but with lots of information and maps included. Even with the internet I love traveling with a guide book!
