Author Topic: First Solo Trip to Pattaya – Advice Needed  (Read 7843 times)

Offline m517517

Hi all,

I’m planning my first solo trip to Pattaya for 6 nights and have been reading through the forum — the guides here have already been extremely helpful, so thank you to everyone who’s shared tips.

I do have a few concerns and would love some advice:

Since this will be my first time travelling solo, I’m wondering if I’ll feel lonely being by myself for so many days. How do you guys usually handle that?

I enjoy sightseeing during the day, but from what I’ve read there doesn’t seem to be a huge amount of daytime activities. Should I consider having a “girlfriend” arrangement during the day as well, or is that overkill?

Where do you usually meet new people (friends or companions) in Pattaya — bars, online, certain hangout spots?

Are there good coffee shops or co-working spaces in Pattaya where you can work for a few hours if needed?

Any suggestions, personal experiences, or recommended spots would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

You can meet people in Pattaya easily if you want.

I suggest the crawls - There is one on Soi 6 on Thursday evenings, have met a couple of guys on that and ended up hanging out.

They are a good idea as you get a feel for Pattaya, get to pick a girl and go back later + often get free food/drinks.

Other crawls:

Buzzing - Monday + Friday (300 baht) - they go to 5 Gogo's and Gentlemans clubs.
Honey Lounge - Saturday (200 baht)
Gentleman's Club group Crawls - Most days (free)

Op - most of your questions have been discussed / answered before , however a disadvantage of having so many separate threads on Patts is that specific info can be hard to find. So:
- many guys in Patts are solo travellers and are there for the same reason you are. so you have that in common. As on  here, the more experienced Patts guys are usually happy to share info over a beer.
- provided you are reasonably social, its very easy to get chatting to other guys in bars . And if there are bar girls in that particular bar, they will come up to you. For the price of a lady drink they will sit and chat for 20-30 minutes.
- when are you going? during the dry season there are loads of bars with beach sun loungers (with shade) along the beach where you can relax with a drink, read a book, listen to music etc and prices are very reasonable.
- there are a number of Costa equivalent coffee shops with good wifi - plus many bars have good wifi too. and all the hotels i have stayed in have a desk in the room plus good wifi! You will be able to do a few hours work if you want!

as jeffers says, there are a number of (semi) organised club trawls. I have never been on one but a couple of guys who regularly post on here have and seem to have generally good things to say about them.

Plenty of ways to pick up girls and lots of places to have a massage too. i used to like a leisurely breakfasy,  an hour or two on the beach, a massage and then you are well into the afternoon - so a bar girls or one from ThaiFriendly etc before dinner and then other fun activities and another girl at night (sometimes in my hotel, sometimes in a club's private rooms etc) Then sleep and repeat.

There are some touristy things to do by day if you want to - probably a good 5 or 6 are worth looking into.

I felt lonely both trips.  I just waited it out.  Had a chill (sober) afternoon, then got back on the horse. Knowing it happens to others helped me.

There is lots to do in the day.  Beach, ferry to the island, Gents clubs, Ripleys, Waterskiing, massage, shopping. More to do than many places. Depends what you like.

I meet people in low key bars, and gents clubs. And I met some UKP boys by sending them a PM before my trip. Also, you can just chill out and play pool or dice or connect 4 with the bar girls. They are Ok to hang out with - as long as you tip them a bit.

I’m going to Pattaya on Monday , arrive Tuesday night for 3 weeks . Am staying just off Soi Baukhao .

I travelled solo across Thailand for a couple of months and I found it much easier talking to people in bars and clubs than I do back home. You will find everyone is in the same boat. I went on bar crawls with guys from USA, Australia, Germany and even Iceland.

I picked up a freelancer from the beach front and had LT even though her english was very limited.

A bar girl I made the mistake of giving her my mobile number. When I got home, had nothing but messages asking me for money to help with her rent.

Went with a girl from a club within Nana Plaza and they had short time rooms within the complex but it was so grubby I couldn't go through it.

go to abr showing football - shout at television "c'mon Reds / Blues - delete as appropriate ) also shout "refs needs glasses" - you will soon make friends.

Seriously every time I've gone to a bar showing sports - foorball / rugby - even that aussie rules thing - I always end up chatting with some blokes and have a good night out.

Thank you all for the input — I’ve read both the guide and the wiki page, and they’ve been very helpful.

I guess my worry comes from the fact that it’s my first solo trip and I’ll be there for 6 nights, so I’m just overthinking a bit.

Is it fair to say you can walk into most bars and feel safe, without worrying about being ripped off? I’ve seen the odd horror story online about being kept in a room and pressured for money — sorry if that’s a naive question, just want to be prepared.

Also, would you recommend getting a long-term arrangement for the whole day? Would she actually go sightseeing with you, or is it better to just meet different people as you go?

I’m planning to arrive next Friday and stay for a week — if anyone’s going to be there around the same time, feel free to say hi.

(select crawls from dropdown).

And I would hold off on settling for a "girlfriend" so soon, it restricts your options. There are so so so many women, you would miss out on the premise of Pattaya visits imo (settling early).
Its so easy to meet women, just collect LINE info from every girl you are interested in, everywhere - on the street, bars etc. After a few days/a week you will have great options for a girl a day if you wish.

I wholeheartedly agree with this.. I did just that and spent the entire time with 1 girl (+2 other on the quiet)... Nice in its own way, but there are some GoGo stunners I could do with seeing... I'm going again soon but have said a later arrival date, just so I can smash a couple of others first... Then settle down for the rest of the time.
So much about that's decent, I'd advise against it.

ditto what jeffers and exitonly said - if you are having just one GF/holiday GF/ girl, why go to Pattaya? There are many other stunning places in Thailand to go to and have a great time exploring / sight seeing/ touring etc etc.

99% of (solo) guys go to Pattaya for one thing - a variety of easily available ladies!!

Again if you have read the previous threads etc, you will see that same advice being given by many guys - don't over think or over plan anything with respect to the ladies - there is such a big supply and a huge variety - just go with the flow when you are there! You can't fail to get sex whenever you want to and provided you are sensible and don't haggle too hard you will get plenty and mainly very good!

BTW - again provided you take basic precautions that you should do anywhere (including back home) you should feel safe everywhere. Of course everyone is trying to sell you something but generally its done with a smile of their faces and isn't overtly pressurised.

Dont be afraid to ask if the girl is a ladyboy or not, they honestly dont mind. Better to be safe than sorry, not unless that is your thing.

I've literally just come back after spending 3 days solo in Pattaya. Work commitments as I said previously in a thread meant that I really only had up to about 6pm local time to enjoy myself.

DAY ONE... Got motorbike taxi to Buzzin, 3 kms away ( about £1)  wherever you go but just missed the bar crawl it was about 2pm so went across the road to Maggie Mays. Maybe only 3 or 4 gents drinking in the open air (bearing in mind they had just opened for the day) and about a dozen girls all age and sizes. Ordered myself a beer and started to people watch. Not much happening so I went inside, air conditioning and a couple of hotties playing pool but neither much better than you would find at home.

 Then joined by another girl (mid 20's hot pants and an arse to die for) who came and sat with me. Offered her a lady drink (about £3) and conversation started. By now I've got the horn so asked straight out! ST room upstairs 300 bhat and st 1500 so about £41 all in. Rooms where adequate and the service unbelievable. Straight into DFK , absolutely cracking body and no rush. Back down stairs after about 40 minutes and carried on chatting to her.

 Outside is an absolute 10/10 talking to another couple of girls wishing I hadn't rushed in now as I'm usually a one pop guy so asked the girl who I was with about the set up. Basically if you see a girl you like you simply only need to ask if they would like to come over so she asked me did I want her to come over.. OMG yes. so a couple of minutes later I have them both sat with me. 2 more lady drinks (£6) and a free game of pool starts. The 10/10 is now all over me so who am I to refuse. Different room this time. Again straight into DFK again and for the 1st time in memory I'm rock hard again within 30 minutes of the 1st punt. Oral was out of this world and straight into missionary whilst an absolute stunner kept eye contact asking me to fuck her slowly. I'm not going to cum quickly after the previous round so probably a good 10-15 minutes of this before I withdraw and she finishes me by hand whilst playing with herself.
I'm now completely spent and she thanks me!!

So I leave the bar 2 hours after arriving having sampled the delights twice having spent a grand total including 2 beers & 3 lady drinks for a grand total of about £94.... try doing that back in the UK!! and apart from the price you get to choose, see before and have every confidence that it's a punt that can't disappoint.
Back to the hotel 10 minute away by 5pm with the wank bank memories full for that day!!!

DAY 2

Now fully recovered from the previous days exploits and having a coffee speaking to an American guy (similar age at 50) who has been here for 3 months contemplating moving over here. His favourite place is the Windmill but they don't open until 4pm so I explain I've only really got the daytime to myself and he suggests Thaitian Queen on the main Beach Road, it opens at 1pm and I'm there at 1.05 pm.

Outside the temperature is about 36 degrees and almost unbearable to walk in if you're a pale Englishman not used to it so straight inside for an afternoon that probably changed my punting exploits back home for good!

The bar is dimly lit (you get used to it ), waitress service with a row of horseshoe comfy seats with high up fix tables that would probably fit 12 punters and 4 girls at each table. The waitress escorts me to my table of choice, A quick look around to see absolutely no girls in and 4 guys (again about 50) stood in a corner enjoying a beer together, who I later find out are the Australian owner and his daily drinking buddies.

10 minutes in and I'm thinking I've made a bad choice but then it all changes. From behind a curtain a cute girl arrives dressed in a one piece swimsuit ( later again to find out is 34 but could pass for mid 20's any day of the week) smiles at me and in perfect English asks would I like company. Yes of course. Waitress comes over , I buy her a drink (£3) which she politely thanks me for and I'm told I can smoke if I wish to. She explains the girls work 2 different shifts 1-7  the 7 till 1am . A little usual chit chat then after 5 minutes the curtain opens and out come a bevy of girls or ages and sizes  literally 25 girls, I counted !!! 6 straight onto the pole dance stage right in front of me and the rest scattered around the bar as the rock music starts. In the meantime 4 punters are now in and and it's vibrant.

 Her friend, completely different shape, huge tits and a 2 piece bikini joins us (asking 1st if it was ok) , lady drink bought and now I've 2 beauties with me. Both keen to hold my hand, stroke my legs and back in a completely relaxed atmosphere.

 Over the course of the next 1 hour or so the conversation was flirty, no pressure to buy lady drinks and I'm in heaven. On the stage a couple of gorgeous girls are beckoning me to invite them over, The 1st girl asked me am I happy with her company or would I like to change, I stick with the same 2 girls. After a while she tells me it's her turn to dance which she does on stage right in front of my with come to bed eyes beckoning me. She's fit as fuck but there are probably 10 or more equally as stunning if not better dependant on your personal preferences.

As she dances the other girl asks me if a want ST with her or do I prefer her friend ( or both together!) I politely decline saying I'm happy as I am The 1st girl returns asking if I liked the dance and her friend gets up to dance. I tell her what her friend said and she giggles, I ask the price which is 500 bhat for the room and 2000-2500 dependant on the girl. Again no pressure at all.

I've been there now 90 minutes, had amazing flirty company bought 2 beers and 4 lady drinks ( total cost £16 ) and the curtains opens as 2  stunning beauties enter and stand by the bar looking like rabbits in headlights. 1st girl explains that they are new, age verified both 18 and haven't the confidence to approach punters so won't last long. Eventually they both get up to dance and I'm now the one like a rabbit in the headlights! I'm now alone with the 1st girl and she asks me do I want their company...well of course. Over they come lady drinks for all 3 bought and 1st girl whisper to them both and immediately both their hands are on my cock under the table. Over the next hour this continues, I buy another couple of rounds of lady drinks and have a couple myself. Now 5 beers in I'm thinking do I or don't I with these 2 newbies as the chance might not come my way again but just as I'm ready to commit I change my mind as they are simply too young looking (although 18) so I don't go for it. I'm horny as hell , its 4.30 pm but I'm simply happy sat there.

After 2 1/2 hours there I only seen 2 girls take punters upstairs but with probably 12 punters in they seems just happy to flirt and change company after 30 minutees or so. I decide to leave as I'm 5 drinks in, settle the bill approx £48 and say my good byes with a kiss saying I'll return tomorrow.

Hop on the motorbike tax to soi 6 (about 5 mins way) ready to simply fuck they hottest thing I can find. Dropped of at the far end, not the beach end, it's 5 pm so not many punters, 1st bar outside is a blond Thai beauty dressed in uniform with bolts on and a slender frame. Omg a didn't look further straight in 500 bhat for the room 1500 st straight up to the room blow job in the shower than fucked her doggy style with her hands pressed against a full length mirror and blew my load in seconds!!  she commented "that was quick " at least I think that's what she had said, oblivious to the fact that for the last3 hours others had "warmed me up !"  Perfect end to day 2. Total cost of he day less than £100 !

Day 3

Decide to return with the sole intention of fucking the 1st girl from yesterday. Arrive to find about 5 punters in, waitress recognises me and escorts me to the same seat, disappointed that 1st girl isn't there.
Joined by another stunner, lady drink bought and conversation is immediately full on dirty talk with her intensions clear. Joined by her friend they say they remember me sat there yesterday and to I want a threesome with full on lesbian action. Impossible to refuse and I've not even been there 5 minutes!!. 500 bhat room and 1500 each girl so about £82. Upstairs for the the most amazing 40 minutes. a blur of 3 way kissing one sucking my cock whilst I had my tongue buried in the other, constant switching until a finale straddling one for a tit wank with them French kissing and an explosion so intense I nearly passed out!!

Returned downstairs to find the girl from yesterday stood at the bar, she waved to me came over and apologised she was late arriving. After the total excitement of the last 40 minutes I now find myself completely disappointed that I didn't wait knowing full well there's no way I can perform/ cum again . So for the next 2 hours I enjoyed her company chatting about everything regretting the fact I wouldn't have the mojo left to fuck her. Time for me to go. A quick kiss goodbye and the one regret of my 3 days there.

Would I return? in a heartbeat !   Punting in the UK will never be the same again!!

What a great report !! Pattaya is the greatest place on the planet for punting. No man goes to Pattaya once he will always return. I didnt know TQ had rooms upstairs also surprised you saying it was full of hotties i was under the impression it was for more mature women who had been working there for years so i never visited. Will definitely pop in on my next trip.

Thanks for the info  :hi:

Offline poolboy1969

With not many places open before 4pm I think a lot of the girls are fairly new as they probably have few options on where they can work at that time so the daytime shift could potentially be much better than the evening. 1st girl I spoke to had worked there 3 years and had seen a lot of changes

Some great Intel matey. Tahitian queen goes on the list!

Staff at door at TQ are instructed to not let certain nationalities in. Which is very racist to pick and choose based on your skin colour. Went over with some asian friends (from the UK) and refused entry saying its a members only night. Walking around the beach, saw European people get easy entry. A few days later, some English friends invited me over and said entry won't be a problem, I never visited.

Many online reviews also point to the same treatment.

Just something to keep in mind

One time I followed a bunch of Indian guys up the stairs at Nana Plaza and I witnessed them being turned away by Security.  I got talking to a Brit regular over a beer later and he was saying that a lot of the Indian lads would share one beer between them and never buy lady drinks let alone bar fine a girl. Basically Indian guys aren't welcome customers because of the way they behave.

You can believe that or you can tell yourselves that Thais are so racist that they don't want your money.

Offline poolboy1969

Many establishments (including the UK) reserve the right to refuse entry for many different reasons. I spoke to one WG who shed some light on the above comments. She had ( along with others she works with ) been bar fined by a particular nationality for LT over night. Price agreed only to find that when she got to the hotel there was a group of 7 who she was expected to entertain one after the other as they said they had bought her time!!! So unfortunately (as with the UK) actions of a small minority tarnish the rest. Let's also put it into perspective, lets say a group of guys regardless of nationality, went to a lap dancing club in the UK and bought one drink between them and never had a dance how long would it be before the girls, bar staff and door staff intervened? If you walk to the far end of Beach Road towards the pier it almost becomes a non Thai area so to speak, the restaurant's, bars etc seem to be Indian run or influenced. Waking Street itself now has many clubs that certainly don't appear to be Thai run, Indian and Russian mainly so realistically lots of bars chose to cater for a certain cliental.

I am currently in pattaya and tried to pm the board members who mentioned they are coming out here soon but the system denied me, saying im not allowed to pm someone if Ive not contacted them before??? Anyone who I have previously messaged then Im restricted to one msg every 24 hrs? I dont know whats changed but before my trip in march of this year i was able to msg board members Steely Dan and Southcoastpunter, both very knowledgeable and helpful.

When I visited Nana with couple of asian mates back in 2005 we were denied entry into most gogos and also a few in Soi Cowboy too. I visited again in 2023 on a solo mission and I wasn't turned away by any and was actually made to feel quite welcome. Maybe its because I was alone or older and wiser or maybe they can smell the extra disposable income on me.

Being solo probably helped. I observed on a number of occasions 3 or 4 Indian guys trying to persuade a WG on Beach Rd to service them all for a discounted group rate. It is these guys that are turning off WGs as opposed to solo Indian guys

 First Night in Bangkok – Boss Massage & Nuru Experience

Landed in Bangkok around 7pm, checked into my hotel in Nana and decided to head straight out. Ended up at Boss Massage for my very first nuru massage.

Plenty of ladies to choose from — I picked one with the best smile. Opted for the 90-minute session. She started with a shower, then prepared the air bed for the nuru. After that we moved to the bed for full service, and finally she gave me a massage. She really paid attention to detail and knew how to please.

She tried hard to get me to go for a second pop, but after 24 hours of travelling I was completely knackered. Still, her effort was there and she finished off with a bath together and washed me down. For me, this is something worth trying at least once in a lifetime.

Afterwards I grabbed a bowl of ramen and a traditional Thai milk tea at the shop next door — both excellent. Then I grab over to Nana Plaza, had a beer in one of the dance bars (didn’t buy any drinks for the girls), and called it a night around 2am.

Now heading off to Pattaya for the next part of the adventure!

I’m glad you enjoyed boss. I visited it in May, I had pre-booked Orange for my Nura session she is 10/10
The girls/landy boys that were mingling at the reception really didn’t cut the mustard and I would have declined and walked. Where the staff in polo shirts?

Do you mean for everything accommodation food travel drinks and girls?
So my last trip I spent on food drinks girls travel around Thailand, about £150-200 would be about right.
I put my accommodation and flights on my uk card.

obviously you can spend more or less depending on how many girls you want to see , what type of food/restaurants you use, whether you go to girlie bars/clubs, how many ladies per day, how much and what type of tourist/sightseeing you do etc etc.

Personally i think £150 per day is rather tight. I would suggest more like budget £200-250 per day. To my mind, its a long way to go so when you are there, you want to maximise the opportunities there as well as see a bit of the area. I would save up a bit more before coming so you don't have to be watching money too much.

There are too many variables.  For example TF girls can be had for 1.2k ST and even from Ibar or some club at 4am you will get plenty of girls who stay LT for 2k and you might have only bought yourself a bottle of beer in the club. 

At the same time you could go to a WS agogo and pay 2k bar fine, 6-8k for the girl and another 3-4k on drinks can easily be extracted from you within 2-3 hours in there.  That's 6x the price and that girl in the club might have walked out from work at a Gogo bar 30 minutes earlier  :lol: 

So it really depends what you do.  I think the best value for money is TF (but hit and miss and definitely got a lot of trash on there these days) and best of all is the gents clubs.  You can get girls from gents club for as low as 1k ST + 400-500 for the room upstairs and a few drinks & you'll probably have a ton of fun before you even get to the room. Even just drinking in them is fun, the girls are generally pretty good in those places in terms of giving a good time & a lot of expats use them and it's definitely not as hardcore on the milking of your wallet than Soi 6 and WS.  So there are so many variables & if you have no discipline and are weak willed then you will get rinsed.  Always check your bills every time you order something too.

It's the same with the food, if you ate at the Terminal 21 food court then the dishes are 30 baht or you could go to the beefeater and spent 1500 baht. 

If you don't have the discipline to say no to lady drinks then you'll waste hundreds and hundreds of pounds in a week.  They all have targets and are all on commission so you will get every drinks beggar going and you have to be strong.  Unless you are flush just stick to buying drinks for girls who you are actually interested in and a polite no with a smile will suffice to all the "sisters" and other girls you're not interested in.

I did 2.5 years in Pattaya with a couple of 3 month breaks and got back last month and by the end I either went to a gents club, foreplay downstairs & deed upstairs or just went to Myst nightclub at 4-5am and picked up the first hot chick i saw and I never paid 1 of the Myst girls, who were mostly young and hot, more than 2k.  The problem is they sleep way into the afternoon and you can't get rid of them.

Day 2 – Bangkok → Pattaya / Muay Thai, Prostate Massage, Walking Street & Soi 6, Live Music Bar

Grabbed a car from Bangkok around lunchtime — cost me about £40 (฿1,800) and took just under 2 hours. After checking into my hotel in Pattaya, I headed out to catch a Muay Thai fight. Great energy, proper Thai atmosphere, and a good way to settle into Pattaya before the night started.

Back at the hotel I hit the gym, then decided to try something completely new: a prostate massage.

Found a place online that was open 24/7. Booking was super easy: I WhatsApp’d the number on their website and straight away they sent me the price list and photos of the ladies. They also offer outcall, but I went with incall.

I booked Nancy for the evening. Grab driver dropped me a little off the mark, but the boss came out on his motorbike to pick me up (top service).

The session itself started with a hot stone massage, firm and deeply relaxing — exactly what I needed after travel. Nancy has magic hands. She’s clearly very experienced and has a warm, friendly personality that immediately put me at ease. Slowly, she moved towards the sensitive areas and honestly it was like being in heaven. The way she worked, she could control when you cum from the inside — it’s hard to explain, but it felt unreal. For me, this is absolutely something everyone should try at least once in their life.

Afterwards I decided to explore Pattaya’s famous nightlife. On the walk down from my hotel I was blown away — hundreds of bars, massage shops, and ladies everywhere. You’re surrounded on all sides, it’s crazy compared to anything in the UK.

I carried on to Walking Street to soak up the atmosphere and even saw the legendary coconut lady. Later I wandered past Soi 6 — absolutely insane. Easily over 500 ladies on the street and hardly any men. I felt seriously outnumbered — an unreal sight.

Finished the night at a live band bar. Superb vibe, good music, friendly atmosphere. Treated myself to three drinks and even bought one for the waitress — total came to less than £10. Stayed until around 3am just enjoying the buzz.

All in all, a brilliant second day — Muay Thai for culture, Nancy’s unforgettable prostate massage, the madness of Walking Street and Soi 6, and finishing with live music. Pattaya really is on another level.

What do people budget for a trip?
£100-£200 a day?
I budget £2200 for a 2 week trip to Pattaya. For that I include flights, hotels, transfers, 'activities', food, drink; pretty much everything. I am naturally 'careful' with my money so fly economy class and stay in 'decent' 3/4 star hotels, eat in Thai run eateries, don't drink much, girls are usually from TF and don't go throw money around buying lady drinks or visit go-go bars.

I would say that would be the minimum that you should be budgeting for. You could do it for less than that but you will probably be denying yourself some of the things that you might enjoy in Pattaya.

shows how diferent we are and how circumstances/situations play a part.

my flight (from Heathrow or Gatwick)) is usually about £850 return (for a reasonable airline with just one stop and an overall journey time of 14-15 hours - yes you can get a bit cheaper with china airlines and a journey time of 20+ hours) and parking is normally about £150 . so thats £1k before i get there.

I too stay in "reasonable" hotels - 3 or 4 star at about £40 per day - thats another £550 so for billybob's budget that leaves £650 for everything else including transfers, food drinks, entertainment, girls etc. £650 is less than 2000 bhat per day!

not trying to prove BB wrong or anything but just saying so that anyone who hasn't been to thialand gets a realistic idea of budget needed. Yes, i expect you can do it on 2K bhat per day but a girl will cost anything from 1500 upwards. As i said before - why go all that way to scrimp and save. You go to have lots of fun!

I really think most people would want double that overall budget! But respect to BB if he can do it for that and have a bloody good time!

Agreed but I think most FLs will go with you for 1000 baht. I haven't been to Pattaya for 20 years - going on October but I was often quoted 1000 baht for ST in Bangkok a couple years ago.

I agree with southcoastpunter. Better to spend a bit more (particularly on pussy).  I do get a direct flight (to make the travel less painful) and get a medium hotel - I like a sea view and a big balcony. Sunk costs.  So then I try to spend at least 10,000 baht per day (around £250).  I sometimes spend this on a one hour punt in London.  :scare: It is not like I waste my money, but I find that mindset helps me enjoy my time.  If I only spend b6000 one day, it might encourage me to get a top girl from a top Gogo the next day.  Or have the meal I want in Robin Hood restaurant.  Or have a 3 some in a gentsclub. Or the best girl in a soapy. Or whatever.

I'm sure this wouldn't work if I were there for 2 months.  I'm sure I ruin things for the expats. But my last 2 trips were only 8 to 10 days (sadly). Cutting my spending by £100 per day - or worrying - might ruin my fun.  Time is my most precious commodity.

And tip the hotel doorman early on. And the room cleaners.  If things ever go wrong, you want everyone on your side.

I only spend £10-15 per night on my hotel, they have all been reasonable, but without nice views. Not bothered about views from rooms.
I always book a hotel on or near soi buakhao

Looking back through my statements, this year my trip was -
Flight was £680 (Qatar Airways)
Other transportation was £80
Hotels - £500 (3 / 4* hotel)

I average something like 2,000 baht per day for Girls and barfines. That usually gets me 1x TF short-time and 1x massage.
I average something like 1,000 baht per day for other expenses (food, beer, lady drinks, SIM card etc)

I think that I have visited Pattaya seven times now, so aren't interested in a lot of the expensive activities such as visit Walking Street nightclubs, go-go bars, beer bar bell ringing, tattoos, made-to-measure suits etc. Even the increasingly expensive Soi 6 doesn't interest me any more. I am naturally 'cautious' with money so aren't a sucker for sponsoring any sick buffalo's. Most of my days are spent chillin by the pool.

I've had my fill of paying top-dollar for go-go models who turn out to be starfishes with a 'golden pussy syndrome'. I much prefer TF girls or beer bar girls. I actually enjoy eating in Thai run eateries. I don't have more a few beers a night.

I don't feel that I am actually denying myself anything whilst I am there. I can certainly afford to go more expensive on any aspect of my trip, should I choose to. As I say that is the MINIMUM that I think anyone should be budgeting for.

SNAP..!!
That's exactly how much i spent last November all in.. £2200.
 12 nnights in pattaya and 2 nights in Bangkok.  I stayed in Travelodge hotels in both cities,  decent 3 star gaffs. I don't drink so my entertainment budget was just boom boom, all from TF. No freelancers from  beach road, no bargirls. Sounds boring but I loved it and shagged many girls.  Price between 1k and 2k. Real hottie for last night in Bangkok for 2.5k. Best value is Wood Bar, bj bar in sukhumvit 7 I think. 800 baht . But very sordid and demeaning afterwards when you think that the girl has gobbled a dozen dicks before you lol. Best not to think like that if you go to Thailand cos you ain't gonna get a virgin

Not much point in thinking about what a WG has been doing before you punt her - just focus on what you're doing in the punt.
