Langsuan Man Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 The TG kid's were in town for the holidays so I sent her and the kids to Underwater World for the afternoon When they returned I asked how they enjoyed it and was answered with grimaces Upon further questioning I found that while the place was crawling with bus loads of Japanese tourists, the real kicker was that the tour guides were allowed to bring their megaphones into the echo producing glass tunnels to deafen anyone trapped there with them Absolutely no respect or concern for anyone else visiting the exhibits I sure can't blame the tour guides, they were just doing their jobs, but a big NO, NO to Underwater World management for allowing such a fiasco in the first place So you have been warned; see a big tour bus in the parking lot, better pick another day to see the fishes (or wear ear plugs) LSM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heng Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 Weekdays are usually pretty good, and yes good advice to avoid tour buses. Also avoid the place if you have an issue with double pricing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PattayaParent Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 Just show them your Thai driving licence or work permit and like most places your whole family get in at the Thai price. Worst place I've encountered was Mini-Siam, show my driving licence get the Thai price, want's to charge the missus Farang price so show wife's licence to get the Thai price, child has no driving licence, has to pay the Farang price!!
