Central & Eastern Thailand

I have planned a trip to Bangkok & Pattaya.

I would like to visit places where I can see , touch & take PHOTOS MUST with tigers …I have done search and found there are two places in Thailand 1) sriracha tiger zoo near Pattaya 2)Tiger temple Kanchanaburi which is actually away from Pattaya and travel west from Pattaya.

Can someone please advise me which one I can pick among this meaning which will give me good experience and will not take much time out of my trip …I planned for 2 days in Bangkok & 2 in Pattaya…

is there regular buses from pattaya to sihnacville

Me and my girlfriend are flying in to Bangkok on 22nd of june, at 15:00 on a sunday and by the time we get to the city center and check in a hotel, all the temples and other stuff will be closed. What is there to do around Ko Ratanakosin later in the afternoon and in the evening? (We like all sorts of stuff - markets eith snacks, boat trips on Chao Phraya, photo ops, panoramas, cultural events...)

Thank you for your suggestions.

I plan to spend a week in july on the island. I do not know about the climate there. i heard that it would not be too wet by visiting westside like ko samui.

We will be in Pattaya midway during our two week trip to Asia in July And will need to do laundry. I emailed the hard rock to see if they do laundry, but also wanted to see if there are any laundry places close by the hard rock, don't want to drag laundry around.

We are set to visit thailand, Bangkok and Pattaya, soon and I wanted to know if you can find Karen souvenirs in either Bangkok or Pattaya--their crafts looks beautiful. It looks like their villages are too far to visit on this trip.

which is the best micro sim data plan for a week, available in Bangkok?

checked the ferry schedule and it looks like the last ferry from coral island back to pattaya is at 6pm--does this ever get too crowded and they don't let everyone on? this would be on a tuesday. thanks.

Not sure if should do a night river cruise OR have dinner at bed supper club--will just have two nights in bkk, first night, which is a Saturday, thinking cabbages and Condoms for dinner, patpong night market then drinks at our hotel, banyan tree. Then the next night (after having a private driver take us to grand palace, chucktuck and maybe mbk, then the question is the cruise or bed. All the cruises are for two hours, I think that is long since we don't want to eat on the boat. Bed supper club seems interesting, but don't want to miss out on bkk at night.

Just wondering if the bkk metro had tons of riders late at night on weekends, ie I don't want to be getting on a desolate subway at 11pm. I think the stations we will be going to are lumpini, sukhumvit and si lom.

We are going to be staying at the banyan tree and their website says its a ten minute walk to the limphini mtr-- just wondering if this is a safe area to be walking in around 10-11pm at night? Thanks

Odd question but I am coming to Pattaya end of this week. I also plan to get myself checked for STDs.

Which hospital / clinics you recommend who specialize in this and have doctors speaking English.i will be there for 5 days and will stay close to walking street.

On a similar note would love to meet friends as I am a lone traveller ( 35 Male)
