Hello, long time lurker here.

Been reading about peoples experiences in LOS, especially first timers and wondered about guided tours.


Has anyone used Asian Night Life: WE ARE DIFFERENT!, or know anything about them?

They look quite pricey but if they show you the ropes, avoid newbie mistakes, it could be worth it.

Cheers.

I noticed they included this disclaimer:


SEX TOURS &
PROSTITUTION


OUR POLICY:

There are US laws prohibiting the promotion of prostitution. We obey and act within the letter of these laws. Dancers and other club employees CAN be hired as escorts to show you the various sights of the city, act as your tour guide, as a translator (if their English is good enough), etc. They can NOT be hired as sexual companions. We do not in any way promote or encourage this.


If you're a U.S. ciitizen and take part in an organized sex tour, you may have a lot of uncomfortable questions to answer upon your return to the U,S,. Do your research on this and other boards and you won't need such guides.

I also noticed that they seemed fairly marriage oriented, with them bragging about 120 male and 2 female former tour members beeing happily married. Also, their advice on it not beeing necessary with a prenup if marrying a Thai lady, seems to fly in the face of much written on this forum.

I'd totally steer clear of that company and take the advise of Tommychrk in post#2. Far better to learn all you can before you go, and arrange your own itinery once there.

This has got to be a joke. By looking at the prices and what’s included (in the “land only” Bangkok tour), it includes a “full-time tour guide” (but only 4 nights out?) and what is described as “budget accommodations”. And all this for a mere 6,100 Baht a day, EXCL. drinks, women and food. Well, there’s a sucker born every minute I guess.

And what’s the story with those supposed “repeat” customers?

My advice for what it's worth...talk to other BM's who will be there same date as you.I'm sure some of them can give you a tour you won't believe...and all for the low low price of a free night out..lol
