[First Visit]

I got both boys from Hot Male.   I picked a boy I liked and between him and the waiter, they got the message I wanted another and pointed to a couple that would be willing and I selected between them.   It was fun!

What to say!  My trip was amazing.  One week was definitely not enough – but that means I have to come back!  I had some great meals (even tried the street food a couple times – that was a big thing for me).  Saw the Palace, took the boat ride (which I had remember seeing in the James Bond movie years ago).  I even walked out onto the glass at the top of the King Power tower.

I made it to 4 massage places.  I kind of felt I owed it to K-Man Spa since they keep sending me messages with pictures to select.  I went to a different club each evening – DreamBoys, Moonlight, FreshBoys, Tawan, Hot Male, and Jupiter.  Oh what times I had.  Each club fun, and each provided an “off” to spend the evening with.  I even tried 2 guys at the same time (remembering to let the first pick the second – as recommended on this blog).

I have to thank everyone on this blog.   If not for this, I don’t think I ever would have gone.  Reading the posts and trip reports gave me the courage to know I could do it.

Thanks again.  Looking forward to my next trip!

Thanks everyone for the responses.   I am getting excited for my trip next week.  I’ve incorporated many of your suggestions as I plan my visit.  Few more questions if I may.

I have never used the Grindr app – I may download and see how it works.  Hopefully I can easily set my location as Bangkok not home.  Although if I have good luck at the gogo bars, I may not need an app. 

I’m thinking of trying the massage places in the afternoon.  I see there are several within walking distance of the hotel.     They all look inviting – any current favorites?  Once I get the hang of the BTS, I may venture farther out to the K-Man Spa.  I’m receiving their daily message showing their line-up of great looking guys!

I plan to check out the gogo bars in the area each evening.  I know I will enjoy the “shows” they have going on.  Is it worth going earlier than 9pm?  I’ve seen videos where the barkers are showing signs and it seems they do not start until around 10pm. 

Is Grab the preferred taxi service?  Does it work like Uber – request a ride on the app?

I have booked a tour guide for Saturday.  The KingKong building sounds like a must-see. 

Where is the best place to get condoms and lube?  I’m guessing I need to have them ready?

Thanks again for all the help.   Going to be fun!

Hello!   After quite some time reading the posts here, I have finally decided to make my first trip to Bangkok.  Circumstances aligned that offered me a week to spend in Thailand in early November. 

Using the posts here and some You-Tube videos, I have some idea of how to get around.  I plan to hire a tour guide for at least 1 day, early in my visit.  I would like to see some of the palaces and other highlights of the city/area.

As a newbie, I have some questions I thought I would pose here:

I see there is a metro, BTS, but what is MRT?  Are they the same? 

Do you need to show vaccination proof still?  Is the QR code on my phone ok?

I read about getting a SIM card for your phone.  Why is this?  I have used my phone in Europe by letting Verizon know and paying a nominal daily fee.  Does this not work in Thailand?

I am scheduled to arrive at the main airport (not going to try spell out that one) on a Friday afternoon around 4pm.  Probably not the best time, but I think I should taxi to the hotel (The Raya) and learn my way around the subway later.

I remember seeing a particular tour company recommended but I don’t recall the name?

I have been to several clubs in Montreal and really enjoyed myself, but I have never had an “off” of one of the models.  Anyways, thanks in advance for guidance.  I’m looking forward to my first trip!
