Unfortunately the pages of SBF IS infested with stealth agents pretending to just be helpful, informative members who post their incomplete but tempting supposed info just to lure the unsuspecting into their greedy thieving paws.

So I suggest to do more research and reading - yeah even those BS posts by the stealth agents to figure out what you want when you do visit the place - but WITHOUT responding to their supposed offer to help out, by doing your own further study.

And when you actually do get to your new destination? First just chat with the hotel personnel to get your bearings AND they will usually also offer good advise on what to avoid. If this is not enough/only got info on touristy things, chat with the GROUP of taxi/tuk-tuk/moto/bicycle etc drivers who usually hang around outside hotels. I emphasize group as not really as good if just talking to one.

Oh, you'll most likely be scammed first time around - but be a quick learner! And of course take the usual sensible precautions when out mongering including and especially NOT bringing too much cash, Credit/bank cards and of course no bling which just attracts the wrong attention.

And again I emphasize, DO avoid offers of assistance via here - Such offers are too many times just the first step towards getting scammed - and scammed big time as these are guys who specializes on preying on the trust and naivety of newbies about to go to a new destination vs locals who are usually just opportunistic small time scammers.

Get hooked up with a crook stealth agent via the internet - they'll be all over you from the minute you step into your destination to when you leave - and only after they squeeze every last drop from you. If you really still need somebody to guide you, then just contact one of the advertisers on here as you will then know that you are dealing with somebody up-front.

Please also think before you put up a post asking for wingmen or to meet up at your destination. Scammer stealth agents will be on you like bees to honey.

Just IMHO and suggestin'
