Visiting Bangkok in August-looking for a legit service providers

[Jackthtod]

To all my brothers, I am looking for some help from you. Iam planning a 4 day visit to Bangkok and I planning to spend all 4 days there. I have already doing some research where I can find some lovely ladyboys to spend some quality time. I tried some x.com profiles and till now there is no response received. Iam also engaging with some SP in ts-dating.com but it seems there are costlier. I am also trying to find some personal ladyboy tour guide but nothing is positive till now.

I know most of you can suggest to choose the bar. To be frank Iam not confident enough to engage in the bar to pick someone.

Since I have a limited schedule planned, I would really appreciate if you can help with some providers whom you already met/experienced. I don’t have any specific preference, so Iam perfectly fine with your suggestion.

Apologies for lengthy post. I really looking forward to see some of your suggestions… please, please, please.

Welcome on board.
Paying for escorts in Bangkok is not as cheap as meeting them other ways and likely it is just a ladyboy from a bar for much more money.

Thai Friendly is very popular for meeting ladyboys. Almost all the ladyboys are on there. Unfortunately it's hard to tell what they are really like or if their pics are real sometimes.
The site if fairly good but be wary of scams. Another issue with that site is there is chance to end up with a really clingy ladyoby that may not want to give you up. This can happen with any ladyboy but more likely meeting them online. Girls in the bar are likely to be less clingy if you want.

Trying to find a ladyboy to be a tour guide online may not be the best as they are more likely to want to keep you to themselves and not take you to the best ladyboy places.

If you want to find the best ladyboys to your taste, the bars are made for that. They are built for quieter or shyer guys or any guys because they do all the work.
You don't need to pick anyone up in ladyboy bars. They are all over you to an extent and it is not a problem to go with any ladyboy you see in the bar.
Certain ladyboy bars are higher pressure than others.
The advantage of a ladyboy bar is you can go there and pick a ladyboy that fits you the best.
All the bars have up to 20+ ladyboys on staff so there is usually good selection. Any ladyboy there is available including the boss often times.
There is no problem with them coming to you, the waitresses are ladyboys and it is pretty much full of ladyboys and some other like minded guys.
You can choose one you like and click with and they will even show you their junk, so you can inspect the goods before you buy, for the price of a few drinks.

A bar will cost a little more than meeting them online but less than an escort. Bars have a bar fine where you pay a fee to take the ladyboy either out of the bar to your room or to short time rooms inside the bar. So you can take them to a room inside the bar and come down to find another ladyboy or take them to your room.
When you go to a bar you have less worry of a scam because there is somewhere you can go back to complain.
Most of the bar ladyboys that work there for a while means they are good at their jobs and trustworthy.
A bar ladyboy is a good choice if you want somebody to take you out or show you around. They are likely to be less jealous and go to other bars.

A very good bar is Why Not Ladyboy Bar on Soi 4 (Nana). Its a very relaxed bar. They will come to you but not high pressure like some of the Gogo bars.
This bar is known for having reliable and good quality ladyboys on staff. They have short time rooms upstairs. There is also some recent reviews on here.
This is their X, you can see the latest ladyboys.

Great, thank you very much for the detailed info. After seeing this my mind is little bit ease now.

so I can book the same LB as my tour guide once we are out of the bar? And the charges will be a separate dealing with them right.

also, I am planning to book Majestic Grande Hotel or Hotel Solo Sukhumvit 2 for my stay. Any recommendations here!!!

If you pay the bar fine, that will let you take them out of the bar for 24 hours. Any other fees are negotiated directly with the ladyboy.
If they want to be your guide and stay with you longer that would be up to them but most would probably go for it.
As I say you want to make sure you find one that you are attracted to and that you get along with. The bars are great for that.
Don't settle, get the ladyboy you are looking for. Don't think you are offending them by not picking them, it is your vacation, you should get the ladyboy you want.

Why Not Bar is a great place to start. As I say you can take the girls to the short time rooms to sample them if you want.
If for some reason you didn't find a ladyboy there, Check In Bar is another great lounge style bar to check out.

I had put a review of Solo suites a number of years ago and it was brand new then so it should be pretty much the same as my review.
It had free breakfast and allowed me to bring two ladyboys with no fee. Many hotels let one guest in for free but not two.
So I would recommend that one over the Majestics. They are both around the same area, Solo is just further down the street although I think my review shows the short cut to Nana by cutting through Lohas Suites next door.

I stayed in Majestic years ago and found it was a little dated and the rooms kind of stuffy. Likeley they updated it but I found the Solo much nicer.
Can't say anything bad about the Solo other than the pool is fairly small.
Dynasty Grande hotel is another good option which is a forum favorite.

Quick question: What is the best time to visit these ladyboy bars? As you suggested my IST stop is going to why-not and then check-in. Most prob I’ll be lading midnight and I think it will take some time reach hotel and the night will get passed. Wondering what would be my plan if these bars open only in the evening.

I have reached some of the freelancers from ThaiFriendly and couple of them responded positively. I hope they are legit. Any precautions I should consider while dealing with these freelancers? Do I need to discuss all commercials before meeting them?

also I noticed there is 2 check-in bar. One is check-in and other one is check in 11. Are these 2 places good enough to pick LB!!!

If you land around midnight you can probably be at your hotel in an hour likely from the time you land. Passport control is likely not so busy and the traffic is light.
The hotels you mentioned are right beside Why Not Bar and not far from Check In bar.

Why Not opens at 5pm and is open officially to 3am. In my experience, they never actually close. They just draw the curtains and close the windows.
Their Facebook page says they never close. We've shown up there at 5am before and stayed for a couple hours.

Check in bar is the original, they recently opened a new location on Soi 11. I haven't been to the new one but the original is the closest to your hotel. Both are likely fine.
I remember partying at Check in bar quite late as well. They just turn off the light on the sign and close the blinds. Officially they are open 4pm - 3am.

There is also Chaos 9 bar across from Why not just down the street. I've seen them open quite early in the afterrnoon. Cindy's secrets bar is likely a good one but I haven't been there yet.

With freelancers you may want to meet them somewhere rather them have them come straight to your room.
If they show up and you don't like them or they aren't what they say they could cause a scene. Meeting them in a bar or restaurant you can gauge the situation
Don't commit to more than one night at first until you are sure it will work out, sometimes once they have their foot in the door or they are expecting more they may be hard to get rid of.
I guess if you are looking for a ladyboy to stay with you for 4 days then you can tell them that but then it's harder to get out of it. Normally I don't commit to more than one night until I have test driven them, so to speak.
Best to get price expectations for short time, long time. If you go to the bar most of the girls are going to charge roughly the same price.
Freelancers can have great prices or some just think they are escorts and charge alot.
Bar ladyboys are likely to be less jealous and possesive.

The only place I've seen ladyboys working during the day is on Soi 7. There is a couple bars and massage places there with ladyboys.

What kind of guiding are you looking for?

My plan is to wander the city in the day time and mongering in the evening and night. The only reason I am looking for a guide is for my safety. A local person as a guide is good I believe. I can bare the guide cost (guide fee, food, transport)

Iam all the way travelling from Canada to India (max I’ll be spending here) and planning 4 days in Bangkok. As this is my first visit to Bangkok I want this trip to worth spending without any issues.

I am also from Canada. I was perhaps known as the tgirl king of Canada at one time but not so much recently.

You don't have to worry about safety in Bangkok. One of the safest places I have ever been to. There is almost no robberies or assaults there partly because everyone is Bhuddist and partly because the authorities are very strict. So violent crime is almost nothing. especially during the day, there is almost zero risk. You do have to more careful of the police more than anyone. Some are known to extort tourists for various reasons, but that seems to have declined quite alot. So don't be concerned if you don't have a guide specifically the first day.
I've never even heard of anyone being mugged in Thailand. One guy way out in the country once seemed like he wanted to start a fight with me but nothing ever happened, that's the closest to violence I have seen. (Other than during a Coup).

The main thing you need to worry about its getting scammed but even that doesn't happen very much. That's why I say to get ladyboys from bars even if it costs a little more as they are very unlikely to scam you. Hoever street freelancers specifically and freelancers in general may give more risk this way.
The worst thing that ever happened to me in the last 20 years is the first time I went to Thailand in 2007 a taxi took me to a jewelry factory instead of where I asked to go.
Never had another problem with a taxi since. As I say the scams have mostly disappeared over the years.

Transportation in Bangkok is easy. There is taxi stands, motorcycle taxi stand everywhere. There is many Tuk tuks and they have the MRT and BTS trains (Light rapid transit and subways)
Maybe some help navigating the trains might help but they are easier to figure out than in Toronto.

The other nice thing about Bangkok is almost everyone speaks at least basic English and if they don't someone nearby will.

There is a number of tours you can go on during the day. If you like to tour ruins and old temples the ancient city of Attuthaya is just north of Bangkok.
This is actually the original capitol of Thailand. It is quite easy to book a day trip there and there is tour booths and stores all over you can book at.
There is also the Grand Temple near the river you can visit. Which is the official headquarters of the King. Visiting Khaosan road nearby there is also a good activity.

For shopping there is lots on interesting places.
If you have a ladyboy with you, she is likely to take you the Central World shopping mall. While this mall is big and modern it is also full of expensive high end shops.
Probably not the shopping most tourists are looking for but the ladyboy will likely hope you buy her something.
For me the best places to shop are MBK shopping mall and Panthip plaza if you like computer stuff.
The outdoor markets are the best for cheap clothing and souvineirs. The Pratunam market is open every day and close to Nana.
On the weekend the Chatuchak weekend market is huge and fantastic. They have the best Pad Thai anywhere.

As I said before if you are looking for ladyboys before 4pm then Soi 7 is probably the best place. It is right across from Nana BTS station.
