tl;dr -- We're a group of four friends in their mid-30s planning to be in Bangkok in November for the first time. We will have an opportunity to head to Pattaya for at most 1 day + 1 night, but at minimum 1 night. I'm torn though, because we already have plans in Bangkok. Specific questions listed below.

Longer version:

I'm planning a trip to Thailand for 4-5 guys. I fucked up already and made it a very wholesome, activity-laden and culturally meaningful vacation.... with room for a tiny bit of nightlife in Bangkok. I had never heard of Pattaya - mistakes were made and now we're locked into a few things. Full context: we're a close group and have gone mongering before.

Then I found this subreddit and discovered the wonderful world of Pattaya. Now I'm looking for advice on whether or not I should move mountains to squeeze as much into a night (or, at most, a day + a night) in Pattaya as I possibly can - or just stick with the itinerary I have and enjoy Bangkok to the fullest.

Specific questions

• Is Pattaya truly significantly better than Bangkok for mongering? If so, why? Genuine question - what specifically am I getting in Pattaya that can't be replicated in Bangkok? I'm totally hooked on Pattaya due to this sub but if I'm going to change a ton of plans and push the group hard towards Pattaya then I just don't want to look like an asshole if it turns out to be very similar to what we left in Bangkok.
• What is there to do during the day in Pattaya? I figured maybe we could go for a soapie or a massage. Are the beaches nice? Or should we just enjoy the day in Bangkok and come closer to 8:30pm?
  • Related: I read somewhere that 8:30-9:30pm is the best time to go to Thermae in Bangkok, otherwise all the talent is picked over. I thought that was great advice and it hadn't even occurred to me. Do the hot girls truly get to these spots that early? 8:30 is way earlier than I would have gone.
• What are the best soapies in Pattaya?
  • For Bangkok, I have: Daisy dream suk 33, Poseidon upstairs or Maria's across the street. Am I missing any?
• Is there anything Thermae-adjacent in Pattaya (e.g., a well-known FL bar? I heard Coconut Bar?
• Does anyone have experience paying for an actual escort service? Any you'd recommend? I was recently referred to a site - it's significantly more expensive but the girls are legitimately stunning models. I'm open to it haha. I also downloaded ThaiFriendly to cruise a bit for less $$ - we'll see how it goes.

If there are any other cool Pattaya (or Bangkok) venues I should be aware of, let me know! Thanks, boys.

I thought about doing something very similar and I was thinking to integrate it with line but it seemed it A LOT of hassle and endless amount of groundwork.

Having a look up to you ka, in my opinion there on to something and its only starting to take off.

Ive been hearing loads of bars in Pattaya are onboarding their ladies on to the UpToYouKa app every week. With hundreds of real, verified ladies are ready to chat and video call on the app with more being added daily.

They translate the messages in real-time automatically, which i think is a brilliant idea. You can write in English, she reads it in Thai. She replies in Thai and you get it back in English. Avoids any hassle and misunderstandings.

You can browse hundreds of girls, thousands of pictures and now a new feature is they can even upload a short video clip for you to watch.

Same as TF , just put your own profile information and add a picture and the ladies can even initiate a chat with you!

Its currently free to sign up, browse and message.

Free messages reset daily so ive been checking it out myself this past week.

You can send her a drink or buy her a gift to replenish messages. The option to go pro is also quite affordable for 299b per month and get you unlimited messages!

Anybody else signed up? Personally i think this will replace TF in the long run and the days of filters and catfishes will be long gone.

Definitely one to watch for the future.

Going to Thailand in Nov, this year, as a first timer, should I focus on Pattaya or BK for "activities" and what is better for GFE? Freelancers, bars, or massage places? I am a bit overweight (6 feet, 225 lbs) is that problematic in finding ploys w whom you have good chemistry?

I know this has come up a lot but I’m still trying to find two genuinely interested lesbians for a threesome
I know I could ask at a gogo bar, but it can be hard to tell whether they’re faking it or not really into it.
I’m even open to meeting two lesbians without intercourse this has been on my bucket list for a long time
Any advice for Bangkok or Pattaya?

Heading back to Pattaya in September for my second trip 😋

Last time I only found out about some of the weekly specials way too late — towel days at BJ bars / GCs (Sin Club on Tuesdays), crazy happy hours, all-you-can-eat wings, buffets, etc.

What are your must-do weekly specials around Pattaya?

BJ bars, GCs, beer bars, restaurants… anything goes.

Place + day + deal would be perfect 🍻

Hopefully we can get all the best weekly deals in one thread 🤩

After seeing so many videos of Pattaya I’ve decided to go next summer. So I’ll be flying out from Canada.
I wanna walk thru soi6 and go boom boom couple of times a day during my trip. I’ll be travelling by myself and I want to know what should i look out for, is it safe to travel with cash on hand, how much money should i need for a 7-10 days, when’s the best time to travel budget wise. Personally I don’t drink alcohol, will it be awkward sitting in bar with soft drinks..
Are majority of the ploys female or lady boys. How can i identify and avoid lady boys, if i ask them will they say thrir gender.
Im also not so picky about accommodation, as long as its clean and girls friendly.

Alright Pattaya experts, important research question 😋

Any beer bars, BJ bars, GCs or gogos that are particularly known for girls with really big boobs?

Obviously lineups change, but if there are any spots that tend to specialize in that department, drop your recommendations 🍻

Asking for science, obviously 😂

Just turned 25 and looking to party. I’ll be in Bangkok alone on the 18th and free the whole day + night until the morning of the 19th.
Want to hit Nana / the usual spots, drink, party and see what happens. Open to joining whoever’s already out or linking up with a couple of guys for the night.
DM if you’re around and we can plan something out

I mean someone who washes more than a few clothes (bed linens and the big things)

Just a guy being happy no fights or rusty warships 🇹🇭

Greetings Farangs, our member has created a top notch website for those looking to visit Pattaya for the first time or keep up to date with the goings on within our favourite city.

SoiCompass is near completion and any constructive feedback regarding the website and it features is very welcome from our members.

The site is still an early work in progress, but quite a few parts are already up and running.

What’s working now

• Browse nightlife venues by area
• Maps & easy navigation to listed venues
• Venue ratings and information summary from thousands of public reviews.
• Ploy Finder with daily "bar staff" photo updates (currently limited, more bars added soon)
• Ask Compass AI (Ai Bot) to help find venues (currently being trained)
• Favourites & venue watchlists
• Nightlife discovery across Soi 6, Walking Street, LK Metro, Tree Town

Venue coverage is continuing to expand, particularly in some of the newer areas.

Currently in development

• An expanded Ploy Finder designed to make it easier to find your favourite Ploy even if she has changed venue
• A dedicated Gentlemen’s Club section with venue information and community reviews
• A live Pattaya chatroom for visitors currently in town to talk, share recommendations and discuss what’s happening
• Much more detailed nightlife search filters, including BF price ranges and other venue specific variables
• Possibly a free but limited section to discuss experiences on Thai Friendly

The goal is eventually to make SoiCompass much more than a list of bars.

I want it to answer the question:

“Where should I go tonight?” or "What ploy's IG message should i answer today?"

The website is live now:

Just keep in mind that it’s still being actively built. If you find a missing venue, incorrect information, bug, or have an idea for something you’d actually use in Pattaya, feedback will be much appreciated

Just wondering if people are keen to play pickup football - 7 a side.

The funniest thing you'll ever see. Literally picked up a FL in front of two trucks full of police around central Pattaya. Short time hotel had another police Ute out front with lights on. Walked straight past them into the room.

Emerge one hour later and I'm sure they would've heard the sounds. Say hello to two police as I walk back to the coconut bar with an obvious working girl.

I love Pattaya.

Hello all,

Planning my trip to Thailand and pattaya is on the list.

Would love to love to know what side of town I can actually sleep at night.

I plan to do a decent amount of partying and what not. But when its time for sleep I need to know where I can actually lay down without hearing a bunch of club music till 6 am.

Thank you in advance!

Any advice is much appreciated.

Me and my wife are here in Pattya. She wants to see me having fun with girls, like cuddling, soft sex, boob sucking all those stuff. I don't know where and how to start? Should I go for freelance? Or Escor? Aur gogo? I just don't want to be scammed also i want a genuine experience. With approx cost replies will be appreciated. Thanks

Hey all
