Any beach in Cambodia like Pattaya? Or at least gay friendly?

Thank you all. Great information

How do you travel from Phnom Penh and Siem Reap? Plane, car,train or bus? And does Sareth guide in Phnom Penh?

And now they also want to follow tourist around!; http://www.dailydot.com/layer8/thai-government-tracking-foreigners-sim-card/

I am shocked. Loosing a nice and sweet person like him, so young and so suddenly My deepest condoleances to family and friends.

Ggobkk: having been guided by both Guss and Ya last November i can tell you that you will be well attended to, have great service and will get information you will not get from a bus tour. Just like you, I was happy with their first response ans i have no doubt you will be grateful once your tour is done!

Was in Singapore last November No problem at all to share a hotel room for 2 guys with a king size bed! My only problem is with alcool and beer price! 14 SGD (10 USD) is steep for a drink!

Just visited 3 out of the 4 strips bars of Montreal last night and I can confirm that Montreal still has the BEST Nude Strip Bars in the World !!! And their "contact dances" in those little room can get really "contacty" now with some of the guys !! You would have to try it again Firecat!

Aren't you glad that our visits this year helped Thailand to get a record amount of visitors? http://bangkok.coconuts.co/2015/12/25/breaking-records-30-million-visited-thailand-year I sure would have taken the free round trip with hotel offered by Thai Airway to go back another time! http://www.traveldailynews.asia/news/article/60468/thailand-fetes-record-29-millionth

Same to you Moses, all the guys of Siamroads and all the isers here!

We have to love it! Thailand wins the best national costume of the Moss Universe pageant!

I wish the best to Thailand but those 2 stories (not related to sex workers) are troubling; http://bigstory.ap.org/article/8f64fb25931242a985bc30e3f5a9a0b2/ap-global-supermarkets-selling-shrimp-peeled-slaves http://www.theguardian.com/global-development/2015/jul/20/thai-fishing-industry-implicated-enslavement-deaths-rohingya

Tomas1576. I contacted Ya and there seems to be a problem for him getting the messages from the website. He says to contact him directly to his email. I will send via private

As mentioned previously, I used www.thelimopattaya.com on my trip Nov 16 to 21st. Worth the cost for good service at airport (considering arrival was at midnight) and going from Bangkok to Pattaya and back to airport. Good service, on time, and good vehicles (one Honda van and 2 Toyota Camry). And no worries on how to get around! Airport to Sathorn; 800 THB inclusive of tolls Sathorn to Pattaya; 1,500 THB inclusive of tolls Pattaya to airport; 1,200 THB inclusive of tolls and done in just over one hour as it was on a Saturday at 7h30 AM Pretty good considering you make I just made a reservation on their website which was confirmed rapidly and there are no deposit or prepayment. All is paid to the driver. Even if it is said not taxi drivers do not expect tps, I tipped 100 THB to each one. But that is just me. I highly recommend

Went to Prince in November. I am a newbie so first time in Bangkok and at massage place in Thailand. Again thanks to all for the information posted on this site. ...Newbie acted as newbie!! Quite intimidating to be in front of that line-up of 25 guys beautiful guys of all types...even if most were on the hunk side of things. The mamasan was not really helpful and was just saying "you must first chose the guy" and pushing again to chose one of the guys even if I asked him to get an idea of what the guys are good at. I was trying to find one of the guy I saw on the website and instead of asking the mamasan because he was pushy (still the newbie), I just kept looking at all the guys. It is somewhat, let me rephrase; it IS intimidating the first time you see how it works and put you in a shy mood to be looking at all those guys. At least I followed Vinapu's advice and I got interested in a hunk (whereas I like twinks) with a tattoo on one of his arms which was REALLY smiling at me. So I point him to the mamasan and instead of getting a description of which type of masseur he is and if top/bottom/versatile, the mamasan just says OK lets get you into the room... In any case, I go with the guy, (for 90 minutes/1100 THB) he lets me undress and shower and he showers after me. I like massage, "real" (!) massage, so after the guys asked, I say you can go strong!!! Ouch!! It was good (soooo good) but I had to say to go "medium" on my calves because I might have came out of there without walking !!! But again, massage was quite good and switching back to strong on the shoulders was exactly what I was expecting of a massage. Having him nude and touching me at the same time with all parts of his body was also quite nice!. So-so part was that, as the mamasan did not give details on the masseur, found out only at the end that he was not a bottom which I would have preferred. He was good enough and I was happy to be able to touch all of his smooth body which is quite spectacular along with the long arm tattoo which normally I do not care for. All the deed was done 10 -15 minutes short off the 90 minutes but I left with a happy ending nonetheless! Was going to tip him 100 THB over the 1500 rate but he did ask for a bit more. The newbie gave him a little more...I know...my bad. So, all in all, even if I got a great massage, got to be with quite a hunk, I was a bit disappointed by the experience (and my own handling of the situation). But this is how one learn I assume!! Which I did. Since I got a spectacular view of the boys also after it was over as they offered water and I sat back down and had a second look to the guys, I got to learn a bit more on how to proceed in the future. First thing is probably to just take a good breath (you know those calming breathing exercice?!!) and just ask for what you really want and take your time about it. Too bad I could not go to another massage place for the rest of my time in Bangkok (wanted to try Banana or Hero but it would have been a 45 minutes taxi ride both ways from my hotel and did not have that much time on my hands) and not even in Pattaya (wanted to try Blue House) where I could have tried my new approach!! But I did get 2 good massages at Jomtien by one of the masseur (#244) walking the beach. A bit of touching on his part on the first time around but a bit awkward being seen by everybody passing by. But quite strong massages and on the second one told him to just do the "real" massage so I could enjoy a good rest. Again, that guy could have incapacitated me and I would not be able to ever walk again by squeezing those calves but I came out that it solved more thing than they broke!!! And at only 300 thb it is quite a deal. In all cases, quite some experiences!! If I can find again the other threads about Dreamboys in Bangkok and BBB (and #23 !!) in Pattaya, I will post my experience of my first off...!!

The staff do go out fast after the show. As if they are running to do another show somewhere else. They all jump on scooters and away they go! No chance of even smiling to the cute dancers!

I agree; the show is quite good both for the swimmers and the transvestites plus there are some cute dancers too!!! The show at Tiffany's is good to.

I just came back from Bangkok and Pattaya November 10th to 21st (then Singapore and Hong Kong Nov 21 to 27, but not the point here!) and took a lot of information from this site in preparation of the trip. Thank you all for the information. Thank you firecat69 in suggesting www.thelimopattaya.com Worth the cost for good service at airport (considering arrival was at midnight) and going from Bangkok to Pattaya and back to airport. Good service, on time, and good vehicles (one Honda van and 2 Toyota Camry). And no worries on how to get around! Airport to Sathorn; 800 THB inclusive of tolls Srathron to Pattaya; 1,500 THB inclusive of tolls Pattaya to airport; 1,200 THB inclusive of tolls and done in just over one hour as it was on a Saturday at 7h30 AM Pretty good considering you make I just made a reservation on their website which was confirmed rapidly and there are no deposit or prepayment.

Thank you for the bars, clubs, massage informations, even if the newbie did not follow all of them tips !!!...but that is something else!! We all have to learn!!

I just came back from Bangkok and Pattaya November 10th to 21st (then Singapore and Hong Kong Nov 21 to 27, but not the point here!) and took a lot of information from this site in preparation of the trip. Thank you all for the information. Thank you Moses for the help given to set-up the site http://bkktour.info. I booked the Royal Palace / Wat Pho / Emerald Budda / Wat Arun visit via the site and got a confirmation right away from Ya. He could not make it himself but got us Gusz as his replacement. We communicated easily through Line and got it all worked out. On the day Gusz was there on time and got us around easily. A bit shy but his English is good and we got good information. We added the Jim Thompson house but you can do without even if it is fun to drive to the boat in a Tuk-tuk and then on the boat on the canal to go there! The additional cost for entrance ( 150 bath, inclusive of the guide as they have to pay whereas Thai do not pay at the Palace, etc.) is not necessarily worth it even if not budget breaker. Ya got us to book the floating market (he is a good seller!) and he brought us to Amphawa, a less touristy market. We went by car (Toyota Camry) and got a great tour. Ya is volubile (to say the least!) and got all kind of information both on Thai life and history but quite a lot of information on gay life too. He is good negotiator (got us the boat for 400 THB instead of 600 THB!) and got us to try food of all kind. We just enjoyed the fact that they were private tours and not crowded on a bus all day long! Really worth the money. I do recommend to any who want to go around Bangkok to reach out to them. They can also help around Pattaya. Other information learnt on this site is for Limo Pattaya. Also worth the cost for good service at airport and going from Bangkok to Pattaya and back to airport. Good service, on time, and good vehicles. But will post on the other thread! www.thelimopattaya.com Thank you for the bars, clubs, massage informations, even if the newbie did not follow all of them tips !!!...but that is something else!! We all have to learn!!

4 days to go before leaving!. Another newbie question....I assume you have to pay cash at all the massage places? No credit card??

How much was the minimum tip at Banana Club? And prices asked at Narcissus? Keep on going with all this information. Quite interesting and best preparation for trip in 9 days!!! How is the pricing at Senso? Anybody tried Babylon massages?

11 days to go before leaving for Bangkok and Pattaya so I appreciate all the posts on the forum. Thanks to you all. Now, looking at Google map (!), the beach mentioned on this topic (Wong Amart Beach ) is not close to the gay Jomtiem veach, right? Are chairs and vendors (massage, manicure, food, etc) still on at Jomtien beach?...and theboys too? ;-)

Thanks Anonone for the above answer and for the other one on your June visit. It answers a lot to any question I have!! And from that one to the other posts asking about Bangkok. In fact thanks to everyone posting as it gives a real great overview of where, when and hows-to's around Bangkok and Pattaya. Naturally, it does bring up more questions!! I read about the massage places with happy ending; are they real good massages in those places or to get a "real" Thai massage (meaning to get to relieve muscle tension of stress) one should head-up to Babylon or which other one either in Bangkok and Pattaya?

More questions from a "newbie" -From other threads it is said a phone needs to be brought to a store to register the SIM card. A mobile from the West does not work in Thailand and a new SIM card needs to be bought? Or it is a question of cost of using a North American SIM card? -From "Back again in Pattaya thread; Anonone writes; 3 manly Thais behind screen anxious to be caressed, and of course I obliged. One had already cume 2 times that night, but still had an impressive finish." You can touch and jerk guys when they are sitting at your table in a gogo bar??. -When using Hornet, GayRomeo from your homeland in the "exploring" mode to prepare yourself for your trip. Have a lot of you been asked by first time contacts for money (to be sent by Western Union or Moneygram) because they fell sick, cannot pay for a doctor, etc.....? Thanks!

Question from a new member; what does LOS stands for???
