Been there - had a nice time - would go again but prefer the Philippines for a better experience at a lower cost.
Scammers can be scammed. A friend of mine has been a couple of times. He pretends to be a lonely farmer wife hunting, has a good time and scarpers. He's afraid to go back again though, last time he narrowly escaped a beating.
To anyone that doesn't like me here.
I hope you need to pee 3 times tonight, but that you only wake up twice.
this just about sums it up i love the country ,

Fully agree a lot of mis-information on here. The key is to use your common sense don't get pissed drunk and be careful down the beach after dark. One thing that might put people off though is that it has got a lot more expensive in recent years particularly when you factor in the relative weakness of the Euro/Sterling. Bar girls are fine in general but unless you are looking for a girl friend move around the city and don't frequent the same spot all the time as they do have a way of getting under your skin after a while. Massage parlours are grand but the better ones can be a bit pricey if you don't clarify the cost of extras in advance. Major don'ts: Try to purchase any recreational drugs. Get fooled by a lady-boy (unless you want one-Pataya has some great LB bars) Get involved in any form of gambling. Rent anything from anyone dodgy(easier said than done) carry expensive consumer goods/jewellery around with you after dark.
