The baht buses go all the way to Pattaya Waking street from Jomtien. On Second road just a block from Walking street entrance is the baht bus transfer.Originally posted by flamingofarmer View Post
So it is only one baht bus from Jomtien to Walking street.
Going to Naklua some baht buses turn right at the roundabout and go right near TJ's.
Other baht buses go left at the roundabout and continue back up beach road. So if you get dropped off at the roundabout you may have to catch another up to TJ's
The last time we took the baht bus back from TJ's we just rented the whole baht bus because there was a bunch of us.Comment

Yeah I've never been to Super street but you can see how close it actually is to Pattaya by that tower in the background.Originally posted by flamingofarmer View Post
View Talay 6 is close to the mall and stuff but i never found myself going there as much anymore.
Soi 7-8 area just isn't the same without King's bar.
Pattaya beach is not safe at night but I've had a nightime seafood BBQ on the beach in Jomtien.

The transfer point and baht bus stop is right at this corner. We have gotten many baht buses here going back towards Pattaya.Originally posted by flamingofarmer View Post
One time we caught a bus here and met the Iraq dude that made art about killing infidels.
We also discussed cigars as we spotted that cigar store that was closed on the corner there.
I think this is the main baht bus depot in the area.
You just cross the street and those buses are going to Jomtien.
There is a whole other world on the other side of South Pattaya road. Plus Jomtien area is half the price or less for accommodations.
Just search Agoda and there a massive number of hotels and condos. The prices are super cheap.

The baht buses drivers are idiots. Sneer at me when I ask if this bhat bus will take me up to Nakua. Maybe better to just ride the scooter taxi. I hope they build the trolley tracks and trains. Maybe Beachwalk should have been widened with the beach sand expansion. Plant the tracks on the beach side of the boulevard. Larger sidewalks on that side. They should be more comfortable and efficient. Sick of schmucks who turn off the beachwalk and yell at everybody to get out. The baht buses are dangerous. If you get into a head on collision there's no padding at the front of the seats to cushion the blow. Lots of broken bones will happen. Trolleys are slower and will have exact stops instead of me waving my arms and hands and they just laugh and leave you behind. Very disorganized.
Baht buses on Bhukao will have to continue. This street is too narrow for the Trolley.
Maybe you should get off at the Terminal 21 shopping center and get on the scooter taxi to get to Naklua bars. What's the name of the ladyboy bars there? How many? I think they got some black ladyboys there if you like chocolate candy.Comment

I never got lost in Pattaya no matter how blasted I was. I usually had crag or others or a reliable LB navigating.I have a good lay of the land now. Bangkok im still getting used to tho. I love the BTS . ....I have enough friends to take care of if me but i generally live in 25 minute bubbles all nite after some heavy partying so i stay in control that way. In the morning i may not remember the name of the LB in my bed or how we got there but I keep on going!
The baht buses are pretty simple. They pretty much go in loops. Best way to travel in Pattya. Motorbikes are great for everything else. Transportation is cheap and easy.Comment

I haven't seen an accident either, just read about drunk people falling or jumping off, the odd motorbike collision and I read about one getting rear ended.Comment

Seems like there is the odd motorcycle hit like this drunk Canadian:
Here is another on Beach road;

There is a couple stories about other parts of Thailand where the baht buses are being driven on the highway. I wouldn't recommend driving on the highway in a baht bus
Other places in Thailand they tend to call baht buses a "songthaew"
This stupid person fell off when goofing around

I would tend to stay away from these tour buses and especially double decker buses, they seem to roll and be in so many accidents.

Carnage! I think Thailand is the only country that still uses this double deckers as tour buses.
Aum told me the owner of the SFO club ( property and biz) owns the Patong Bay Resort. Very nice place a short distance to the beach .. hes got his pool access rooms at $18Cdn.

That price must just be now during the lock down. Unless we can get a theladyboyforums deal.....
March is a little more expensive.

Still Koh Chang has the best deals and most places are right on the beach.
Anything right on the beach in Phuket is a ridiculous price.
Look at the amazing rooms at this place. It is not cheap but a fraction of the price of the same in Phuket.

Its possible to get a deal but i wouldn't expect much of one . The rate is for now ...mostly to entice thai tourism. It looks like a nice place . I would suspect they have a shuttle as its off the main tourist area a bit.Originally posted by Crag Rockheart View PostComment

Koh chang is definitely a great deal for a couples retreat and not as crazy as Phuket.Originally posted by Crag Rockheart View PostStill Koh Chang has the best deals and most places are right on the beach.
