    hi there! great site you have. can anyone give me up to date info on the border crossing here (dom krolor/tha boei). i have read on one website this is no longer open ? also i have read various horror stories/rip off scams.

    Hi newboy,

    Welcome to Travelfish.

    We've not heard anything about this border crossing being closed. As far as we are aware it remains open for business as usual.

    Scams used to be a bigger problem than they are now -- mainly related to boatman mafia -- you're best to try to cross with a few others to keep your costs for the boat down a little. Also don't be suprised when the customs officers ask you for a buck or two...

    A month is a good period of time for a trip like that.

    Have fun!
