Brother, I saw on TV that an uncle was scolded by a tour guide in Thailand. Why did that happen?

That tour guide was a fake and didn’t have a tour guide license. He wanted tourists to buy expensive things so he could get kickbacks.

What are kickbacks?

It means when someone buys something, the shop gives the guide some money. This guide threatened tourists just to make money.

So is traveling very dangerous?

As long as you don't join 'low-cost tours' and choose a reputable travel agency, it's much safer. 'Low-cost tours' sound cheap, but there are actually lots of traps.

Oh, I'll make sure to choose a good travel agency next time and not be greedy for bargains!

Exactly. That way, you won’t get tricked. The most important things in travel are happiness and safety.
