    I remember going to pattaya, well living in Jomtien for a year back in 2004, and i drank a hell of a lot every night of year, for the full year partying hard as i was young then, i went back 2 weeks ago and the money i now needed for one night (with girl costs included) was the same i was paying for quite a few nights back in 2004 haha. I was spending 12,000 - 20,000 baht on drinks alone in the gogo bars 2 weeks ago 😕, never mind the stupid 4,000 baht girl fee and 1,500 bar fines. That's just for ST too 😆 I remember the gogo girls costing 2000 baht plus 800 - 1000 bar fine back in 2004, and i always got LT for that price. Now i have to get a loan every time i want a holiday in Pattaya hahaha 🤣🤣 ... the price increases and the almost 35-40% exchange rate (I'm crap with percentages so its probably more lol) drop has killed it off for me. But my bank loves me more now, there's always a silver lining 🤪.
    Well, in the end i started using freelancers (charging 1,500 - 2000, so basically the same prices i was paying for gogo girls back in 2004/2005), had some pretty good girls and quite a few annoying as fk ones too, one even had her ipod on and singing in her own world oblivious to everything while doing the do lol, I've never, ever had that happen before from any Thai girl. I'm laid there thinking wtf. Then she has nerve to get off, search/look through my items in my bag on the desk in front of me and wondered why i got a bit miffed with her when she also demanded money for a taxi. Sorry love, that come out your fee. Now GTFO out my room, after that she also demanded i take her out with me around walking st. Maybe i should have paid for her into the psychiatrists office😆
    Did meet one really nice lass, i've got her booked next week for a few nights before i go into the gogos. I really need to try some beer bars this time, any recommendations?

    Your hotel is your home-away-from-home. It's true that you can get a room for only the functional minimum (shower and sleep), but the nicer the room the you get, the nicer your overall experience is going to be, even if you only come-and-go from the room.

    I usually have 2 ladies a day and lots of fun in the nightlife, sometimes thai food, sometimes european food.

    For this two weeks I spent £700 on a return flight from the UK. £225 for 14 nights at my hotel. Then I spent around £3,000 on the rest. I didn't drink much but i was never left lonely during my stay. I always had a bed mate/travel companion.

  • @leeshuttleworth3552
    @leeshuttleworth3552 Рік тому +5

    This is a good video and a great guide. Like you mention it’s impossible to gauge the cost as it’s each to their own. I’ve holidayed there 12 times and each and every time I’ve spent a fortune. Definition of a 2 week millionaire! You can certainly rack up huge bills in bars when you’ve had a few and get carried away. I also seem to tip a lot and buy things from on street sellers that I don’t need. Most people tend to learn but I seem to get worse each time! I like to eat at nice places and always take a girl and sometimes a friend or 2 of hers. Taxis everywhere, nice food, lady drinks, bar fines, kamagras, fake watches, 12 hours drinking everyday, siam siam rooftop, sky gallery, day trips, it all adds up super quick but can be done on a good budget if needed and you’re sensible enough. I stay at the KTK hotel which is really nice and not too expensive. My longest stay was 2 months in Jan 2017, total spend with flights and hotels was around £19,000. Landed back in Manchester without a pot to piss in but had the time of my life. Incredible place. I was that addicted to the place I actually went for 4 nights once when I had 5 days off work. Mental.

    Great video, and sound advice, Trev. I’ve just booked a one-way flight Zurich - Phnom Penh on Lufthansa, with a stopover in BKK, where I’ll go off the trip, scrapping the flight from BKK to Phnom Penh… Like that, the flight was only a third (!) of what it would have been if I had booked the very same flight without the extra leg BKK - Phnom Penh (i.e., € 400.- for ZRH - BKK - PNH instead of € 1‘200.- for ZRH - BKK only!)…

    I bring about $3,000 - $ 4,000 (not including airfare) for a 1-2 week trip, but I admit to being the opposite of a Cheap Charlie! I stay at a budget mid-range hotel or guest house (Admire House on Soi Lengkee & Flipper Lodge "Soi 8"recommended). I enjoy eating a combination of Thai food and Farang food and occasional street food (Smokin Joes bbq, Benihana, Lek buffet,& P72 recommended). I go to agogos and gentlemen's clubs a couple times a trip, but mainly frequent beer bars. I have a long-time Thai companion, so this one factor probably contributes the most to my rather high budget, but she has a good attitude and keeps me entertained!

    Great vid Trev. Such a tricky topic to
    tackle as it can vary so vastly.
    You could have a day in a Pattaya and spend 200baht food, 30-40 baht on baht bus, hotel 500baht, few 7/11 beers 250 baht, ST 1000baht - around 2000baht
    however you could easily drop 1500 baht on 3 western meals a day, 500 baht on taxis, proper drinking session in a bar 1500-2500, nice room 1200 baht, massage during the day 200-800 (pending your preferred massage type) GG bar LT 5000baht - bang that’s 11K!!
    The interesting thing is we’ve all probably had a day like the former that’s been even more enjoyable than more expensive day!
    Keep up the good work Trev 👍

    I believe the prices & costs mentioned might change since the timing of this video was made during Low Season where the prices were generally relatively lower as compared to High Season and Peak High Season like during Christmas, NYE and Songkran period btw....But one thing good when you have a long holiday at a specific place to bring down your cost is that you dont need to go all out on every single day, you could alternate between one day relax and bar-hopping/hunting, strictly solo without any ladydrinks, and the next day go full party mode:)

    Well I am the usual two week millionaire who just don't care because I don't have the option to come that often, so I just do whatever I want. In bath I usually use: Plane tickets/transport to and from Pattaya: 30.000 baht, Hotel for three weeks: 20-25.000 baht, Daily spending 8-10.000 baht. Every holiday for a 10 year period has been within this spending range - So a total holiday cost has usually been around 200-250k. An average of once every second year..... and I don't even drink any alcohol!

    I agree with your estimations, although the hotel prices were higher, around 50 $ to 80$/night (for BKK), based on 3 to 4 stars hotels with swimming pool (not the basic rates).
    Trip budget: around 3500 $
    Aerobics 1500 $ (about 2 sessions/day)
    Overall: 5000 $

    You need 8 - 10k a day if you want a decent holiday with company.
    All over town they have price fixed lady drinks at 150 minimum, bar fines are 500 minimum for short time.
    Girls are asking rediculos money 2-3 k short time and 3k+ long time.
    Truth is this is now policy as the salaries have been reduced and the commission doubled.

      I've just spent a month on the road and traveld 2, 600klm all around the North, NE and central, Pattaya isn't much cheaper anymore and since Covid reopening they have purposely increased cost by 20% + covert Covidly in Pattaya (Mafia price fixing) ... Lol
      Bangchan bars are exactly the same as Pre Covid.
      300 Baht bf'n LT or st
      Lady drinks 100 baht
      St 800 - 1000
      Lt​1000​- 1500
      Beer​​ 65​ -​100

    Personally, when I go I to Thailand. I last flight round trip was 1800 USD. 1200 hotels, ladies will run you 2000 a night plus bar fined, they get hungry and thirsty too so that's extra. Anywhere between 1500 to 2000 Thai baht for taxi to Pattaya. Best tip I can give... Head back to Bangkok three days before your flight. You want less sweat with timing ... Bangkok could be a lot of fun too. Be sure to visit the wood bar on soi 7... You will not be disappointed... Bring 1000 baht with ya... That includes tip

    Nice one, good summary. The way you were talking I was expecting about £4k - £5k not knowing the exchange rate, so £3k seems reasonable. Plus I wouldn't be boozing every day I don't think, not sure my body could take it. As for the women......I'd have a splurge at the start I guess but would settle down and maybe only have 2 or 3 the second week..... In theory. So I could maybe do it for cheaper than you say, though i would want some trips around the place tbh. Maybe one day anyway.

    I am sure everyone has a different budget, but for me, my company give me about $500 per day as a daily stipend(not counting weekend). That will be approximately $10,000 in 4 weeks. That is apprximately what I will spend. Approximate breakdown is $2500 for international and domestic transportation. $2000 for lodging, $2200 for food and meals. Another $2800 for activities and entertainment. This is similar to what I spend in back home minus international flight. Due to Corona, I have been cook up in condo for past few years and my health deteriorated. I need to be low key to regain my health.

I leave the flights, hotels and other associated cost out as they are paid well in advance and as you say, everyone is different and have preferences from a cheap accommodation to a fancy hotel. And also we all live in a different part of the world. I can get a return flights for 600$ AUD. But yeah 2k AUD was enough to have some good times without mentioning it was my first time so I could have probably saved money here and there as I was a newbie and also because I mainly drank in agogo and they are more expensive. I'm a big guy and I can sink a lot of alcohol before it starts to get me tipsy. Next time i'll buy a couple of bottles and start to drink before going out.
