Hi all,

I am planning a solo trip to Thailand from 3rd dec t0 13th December. I am looking to meet some of the ladies here, preferably to travel together whole time if possible. I am on budget travel. Which place should I head for, Bangkok or Pattaya or Phuket.

Also how is the situation at the airport. Is it safe to travel at all. Have the prices fallen down.

What is the rough budget expected, excluding air tickets. In Thailand I will travel by road only.

Regards
Viru

On a budget your best location would be Pattaya, however, with there being such a vast choice your budget may go out of the window.

I have fears that the airport may still be out of action on the 3rd

from Travel Information Forum.

Have a look at this thread as well: The Rookie Thread

Thanks for the replies. I will look into the threads. Have to think about the airport as well

And where can I meet the members of the forum?

I was actually planning a stopover to BKK on my way to MNL but I'm afraid Pentire is correct as the protesters are still in the airport. But I'm sure there's other ways in country.

Either way good luck and I wish you safe passage into paradise.

Hi all,

Considering the current situation, I have decided to postpone the trip to march or april. No point in wasting my first trip there.

But this was a perfect holiday for me

Thanks all

Hi All,

Im planning my 1st trip for early April, for 3 weeks. Just want to say hi and maybe get some advice.. get to know a few of you guys. The forum has probably got all the info I need Im sure.
Im looking into hotels now, Im thinking staying 2 nights in bangkok, the main reason is to check out the guess bar. Then off to Pattaya for most of my stay, Maybe phuket a few nights, Not sure yet. But back to bangkok for a night or 2 on my way home for sure.

Whats it like there in April? Is it quiet? Cheaper? As action packed?
Whats the weather like during that time?

Thanks Guys

Welcome to the Forum!

April is the one month that's unique and that's because of the Songkran Festival.

Most prefer to avoid Songkran especially in Pattaya where it runs from the 11th to the 19th..

Is there any reason or reasons to avoid the festival. I searched Songkran Festival in the posts but nothing came up.
Cheers

Here's some threads to get ya started cwds.

Songkran

Some More Songkran

I was going to give those same links, but you bet me to it,

Songkran is the worst time of the year to be in los as so many deaths happen on the roads, cause of stupidity of drivers and drunk people who soak everyone with water.

most Bm's who visit or live in los avoid this festival, at all costs, and stay indoors.

BTW, welcome to the forum.

Thanks Guys..

I'm glad I asked, Doesn't look like a good time to go for my first trip. Didn't want to wait any longer but I think I will drag it out by a few weeks and avoid the festival. I think I'll look into late April early May..

What's it like in May in Pattaya?

I have a feeling November through to Jan is probably the best time to go... From what I've read in the past. But I can't wait that long to get over there.

Any advice or links on the weather and how busy it is during the different times of the year would be great.

Cheers.
