Udon Thani Travel Forum

I was At Udorn in the seventies during the war,stationed at the airbase.I'm planning on coming back and retiring.could you tell me about how much baht it would cost me by the month?lodging,food entertainment,transportation included.thanks david Blades

I've only stayed there once and have gone thru a couple of times but from a recent article I read, there are quite a number of Vietnam era vets that live in the suburbs around the town. I even came across a travel forum for the town so if you google Udon/Udorn, you should be able to find this forum and get very specific answers from expats.

this site has everything you need to know about Udonthani.from lodging,restaurants,nightlife,shopping and can meet retirees from all over that lives there.i will be there in december.good luck and have fun.if u have further questions feel free to ask.

Udon Thani is very inexpensive compared to other cities in Thailand, such as: Bangkok, Pattaya, Phuket, Chiang Mai.

Personally, I think you could live there quite well for <$1,000 U.S. a month.

But a lot depends on what type of lodging you want, Thai or Falang food, what type of entertainment you are reffering to; i.e. movies, bowling, whatever.
