Welcome to Pattaya’s #1 Pocket Guide since 2004 There’s a good reason why we’re still going strong as we’re now in the middle of our 14th low season. We produce three publications every month, as you can see above, printing a total of 15,000 copies, that’s 5,000 copies of each.

We take distribution very seriously, we deliver to over 500 plus locations around Pattaya and verify with external and interal photos which are published monthly to our facebook page. Plastic wrapped guides are also delivered with every Foodpanda Door 2 Door and Nick The Pizza food orders.

With more advertisers than any other local printed publication, business owners and managers choose The Pattaya Guide because it offers really good value, professional design, great content for the readers, excellent distribution and daily exposure via our website and social media platforms that include facebook, twitter, linkedin, pinterest, instagram and issuu. Not forgetting our 24 hour digital radio station available online and via the tunein app.

As we send the July issue to print, we’ve all been captivated by the incredible football event that is the Russia 2018 World Cup, and as the second round of group games take place it’s really shaping up for a terrific knockout stage.

Throughout June we gave away over 4000 world cup wall charts which have proved very popular. We are told there are still a few left in a couple of places so if you want a wall chart, visit page 28 for where you can find them.

Enjoy all that Pattaya has to offer, it really is a great place to be. visit our website | www.pattaya.guide

HISTORY GUIDE

Pattaya also known as Fun City is Thailand’s most popular resort only 90 minutes drive from Bangkok.

Once a sleepy fishing town, Pattaya first boomed as an R&R spot during the Vietnam War and has been a popular tourism destination ever since.

Currently, Pattaya is booming and the opening of the Suvarnabhumi Airport has made visiting easier than ever.

Pattaya is popular not only as a beach resort and for its entertainment, nightlife and shopping, but also for the broad selection of recreational activities it caters for, from golf and horseback riding to bungee jumping, karting and shooting - not to mention a wide variety of watersports such as scuba diving, jet-skiing, sailing, windsurfing and kite surfing.

Pattaya, unlike other beach resorts, shows no respite after sundown, Pattaya’s nightlife is unique and fascinating with Walking Street, South Pattaya in the centre of it all. This is the most popular place to go amongst tourists and expats and you’ll find many gogo bars, beer bars, discos, street entertainers and the odd ladyboy.

Food is another highlight of any trip to Pattaya. From giant prawns to spicy som tam salad, there is every imaginable cuisine here.

Cajun, Chinese, Indian, Italian, English, French, Vietnamese, German, Russian and more.

Today Pattaya attracts annually more then a million tourists from all over the world. Pattaya provides high standard hotels, restaurants, sports, entertainment and shopping. It really has it all and a whole lot more.

GETTING AROUND

One of the wonderful things about Pattaya is the fact that getting around is so easy, either locally or nationally.

Here are some of our tips for getting around when based in Pattaya.

LOCAL TRANSPORT BAHT BUS Baht buses are a fantastic way to get around the city and run along all major routes. The price for most journeys is 10 Baht although for longer distances this maybe 20 Baht. Off-route baht buses are expensive so check in advance.

MOTORBIKE TAXI There are lots of motorbike taxis available around Pattaya and they are a fast and cheap way to get around once you overcome the initial fear!

METERED TAXI Metered taxis are becoming more common in Pattaya although the drivers prefer not to use the meters and will ask for a steep fixed price for the journey.

UBER & GRAB TAXI This method of transport is growing in popularity and is often cheaper than using standard metered taxis. However, there is some resistance from local taxi drivers so getting an available car can prove difficult but worth a try.

REGIONAL TRANSPORT BUS & COACH There are two main bus stations in Pattaya, one on North Pattaya Road and one on the southbound carriageway of Sukhumvit Road near the Pattaya Klang turn. From here you can travel to several destinations around the country with more destinations offered by other operators.

MINIBUS There are lots of minibus services running between Pattaya and Bangkok as well as other areas. These are a faster alternative to the larger buses with prices being similar. Downside is they are known to drive dangerously.

METERED & PRIVATE TAXI You can get metered and private taxis to most areas of the country. Some have fixed price lists whilst others prefer to negotiate a price. This is an excellent option if you are visiting places that aren’t directly on a bus route.

FERRY The Koh Larn ferry runs every hour daily which is convenient and well-priced.

The Hua Hin passenger ferry is modern, takes under 3 hours although pricey.

TRAIN Trains are not the faster way to get around but they are a great way to see the country. Pattaya Train station is in East Pattaya close to the Highway 7.

PLANE Domestic and international flights are available from U-Tapao aka as Pattaya International which is 40 minutes drive, Suvarnabhumi and Don Muang take 90 and 120 minutes drive respectively. Regional flights are good value.

OTHER OPTIONS CAR & MOTORBIKE RENTAL Having access to your own car or motorbike certainly gives you more freedom. There are lots of reputable vehicle rental companies in the city but make sure they offer first class rental insurance.

BUYING A CAR OR BIKE Regular or long-term renters may find it cheaper to purchase their own vehicle. New vehicles are quite expensive but hold their value well and there are naturally the same potential issues as you would find anywhere else in the world when it comes to buying a second-hand vehicle. Obtaining credit can also be a problem.

TRAVEL TIPS Common sense obviously plays a huge role in travelling around Pattaya and Thailand. Drink driving is naturally a big no-no but there are plenty of occasions where travel can be particularly difficult. Friday afternoons always see a large increase in the volume of traffic as too do Public Holidays and weekends. Allowing plenty of time for travel is advisable as accidents are holdups are common.

SHOPPING GUIDE

Pattaya has large malls, small malls, supermarkets, bazaar-style markets, and thousands of other shops.

Regardless of what you are looking for in Pattaya, you will be able to find it but don’t expect an abundance of shops all selling different things. In reality, you can expect to find plenty of clothes shops and coffee shops but the city has a long way to go to catch up with Bangkok.

The major malls are Central Pattaya Beach, Royal Garden Plaza, Central Marina, and Harbor Mall which has excellent facilities for kids that can keep them occupied for an entire weekend. King Power mall is purely for holiday makers.

Terminal 21 mall and hotel will be located on North Pattaya Road next to the Dolphin Roundabout which is due to open at the end of 2018.

Thepprasit Night Market opens Friday to Sunday and is the largest night market in the region, it’s definitely a must see for all tourists. There are also smaller markets open day and night selling clothes to hand made crafts Like with many other parts of Asia, bargaining is a way of life and often something that feels quite alien to Europeans and North Americans.

Don’t let a small matter like not knowing your Thai numbers put you off either, most shop keepers will carry a calculator to show the price.

As a general rule whatever their first price is, half it and you will be closer to what they are actually willing to sell the item for. If you are not happy then simply walk away as the shop keeper down the street will be selling the same thing. Always remember to smile and make eye contact.

Try to have some fun when bargaining because if the shop keeper likes you they may give you a better price and never get aggressive, it doesn’t pay.

Losing face in Thailand or losing your temper for that matter are big no-no’s so always keep this in mind if you are looking to pick up a bargain.

MOVIES GUIDE

MOVIES COMING THIS MONTH Ant-Man and the Wasp are two superheroes working together to fight evil.

MOVIES NOW SHOWING Jurassic World is an exciting action adventure sequel to the popular 2015 movie.

TELEVISION GUIDE

Sometimes the hectic life of Pattaya takes its toll and we just want to sit back, relax and watch some great telly.

However, deciding what to watch can be a bit of challenge!

The options for watching our favourite shows have improved a great deal in recent years and we are no longer stuck with the local cable offering old movies, English speaking news channels and dreadfully produced local TV. Faster internet speed now mean that we can access pretty much all our favourite shows from around the world. Here we give you a brief lowdown on the free and paid streaming options that are available.

FREE STREAMING Free streaming is available to everyone who has a laptop, mobile device, smart TV, Chromecast or media box. This is great for accessing literally thousands of options but it’s heavily reliant on fast internet connections.

If you don’t have this, sadly the free-option may not quite cut the mustard.

PAY TV SERVICES True TV is one of the most expensive but best options for movies and sports fans and is available via cable, satellite or internet. Netflix offers an excellent selection of international TV shows and movies. The selection of children’s programmes is a fantastic way to keep the young ones happy and quiet!

Once again it is available across a range of devices making it ideal for families.

Amazon Prime is perhaps a superior version of Netflix and offers plenty of content that isn’t available from other sources. Prime works well when streamed across multiple devices. Minix boxes, Chromecast and Apple TV offer an excellent selection of free and paid content.

ISLAND GUIDE

Sometimes we feel like we need to get away from the hustle and bustle of Pattaya and there are several islands nearby that are perfect for just that.

KOH LARN Koh Larn is the closest island to Pattaya and is just a 45-minute ferry crossing from Bali Hai Pier. The island has several sandy beaches lapped by clear, azure waters with the most popular being Tawaen Beach and Samae Beach.

Accommodation on the island varies from basic chalets to upmarket resorts.

The Phonpenyom Restaurant offers excellent seafood and the Klom Klom bar is modern bar offering music and pool. Transportation on the island is via Songtaew or it is possible to hire motorbikes.

KOH SAMET Koh Samet can be reached by ferry leaving from Ban Phe Pier which is around an hour’s drive from Pattaya. Samet has some of the best beaches in the region and the island has plenty to offer in terms of nightlife and water sports.

Accommodation ranges from small beach front bungalows to luxury villas.

Ban Ploi restaurant is a floating restaurant close by that is renowned for its seafood and other popular Thai dishes. Transportation is generally either by speedboat or Songtaew although motorbikes can be rented.

KOH CHANG Koh Chang is around 4 hour’s drive away from Pattaya and is possibly the best-preserved tourist destination in Thailand. Comprising of 70% rainforest, the island has an abundance of sandy coves, beaches and wildlife. Koh Chang has a lively nightlife and excellent restaurants.

RUSSIA 2018 WORLD CUP REVIEW

Well, the World Cup is well underway with some terrific matches between the teams have been played.

Russia have so far surprised everyone are sit top of their group with six points, in other groups, France, Croatia, and Brazil all top their groups after 2 games played. Spain & Portugal had a thrilling opening game where Ronaldo stole the limelight, both sit on 4 points and anything can happen with the final group game. There are more games to played, and we hope England will qualify to the knockout stages.

There are many bars and restaurants showing the games all across Pattaya, it’s free to watch on Thai television, and during the match the commentary is in English. However for a true football experience, we recommend watching it in town at one of the following bars; Retox Game On, i-rovers, The Sportsman, Retox Lengkee, Le Pub in Soi Diamond. Further afield, Hemingways Jomtien, on the Darkside (East Pattaya) Murphy’s Irish Pub, Retox Outback, Sunny’s Restaurant, and The Loft who provide a free minibus service.

The knockout phase begins on 30th June with the quarter finals being held on the 6th and 7th July, the semis on the 10th and 11th July and the third and forth place decider, something of an anti-climax being held on 14th July.

The final will be held in National Stadium in Moscow (Luzhniki Stadium) on 15th July with a kick-off time of 10pm. Everyone will be hoping that their team manages to the latter stages with national pride at stake.

The tickets for games have been selling surprisingly slowly to date and this is for a variety of reasons which there is no need to go into. However, the TV audiences around the world are bound to be high with viewers prepared to stay up or wake up throughout the night to watch their teams play.

Whoever makes it to the final, the team at The Pattaya Guide will be watching.

FITNESS GUIDE

A healthy lifestyle can be achieved anywhere in the world and Pattaya is certainly one of the most popular places people choose to stay fit and in shape.

Thailand has a tropical climate and is therefore ideal for the pursuit of outdoor activities. There are the regular water sports such as kayaking and windsurfing, beach activities such as volleyball and beach football along with scuba diving, golf and much, much more.

Keeping fit and healthy may not be one of the first things that you think about when you come to Pattaya, after all, there are so many other distractions and activities but it is something that everyone can take part in.

You can walk on the recently improved promenades at both Pattaya Beach and Jomtien Beach or why not take an evening stroll around Buddha Hill at Pratamnak? There really is plenty to do without breaking the bank.

If you are looking at being a little more active and considering going to a gym, you will find some excellent options all around the city. Gyms are in most areas and for those living in East Pattaya, you can find the superb Castra Gym where you can buy all the necessary supplements to help with your workout. You will also find several places where you can play tennis, squash or badminton to help you keep in shape.

Fitness, health, and wellbeing are all incorporated under the same banner. In addition to the excellent gyms, water sports and other recreational activities that take place in the city, there are also a number of yoga and pilates studios.

If you are in a need of a bit of pampering, you could consider visiting one of the vast number of 5 star health massage organisations such as Jomtien Sauna, beauty parlours, plastic surgery clinics, spas and fitness centre mean that Pattaya really is the place to improve your overall health and look.

GOLF GUIDE

Pattaya has an incredible selection of golf courses to meet all budgets and skill levels that you won’t be disappointed.

There are 26 championship standard courses within 45 minutes of Pattaya, designed by the very best golf architects and designers. Clubhouse facilities are excellent with everything you might need and more, including great restaurants, swimming pools, massage facilities, shower and locker rooms.

Caddies guide you through your round with advice and encouragement.

Quite simply, golfing in Pattaya is a match for anywhere in the world at a fraction of the cost with each course offering a fantastic experience for golfers of all abilities (with no course requiring a handicap card). So, whether you are a low handicap golfer, one who enjoys a challenge or a complete novice there is no better place to play than the courses around Pattaya.

Green fees range from 750 baht during the week at Crystal Bay all the way upto 5000 baht for a weekend round at one of the top courses such as Siam Country Club. Caddy Fees range from 300 baht to 400 baht and carts are from 400 baht to 700 baht depending on the course you choose.

There are now 38 golf groups in Pattaya which offer golf outings and tournaments on a regular basis, and players often get a better deal compared with booking direct with the golf course. You can find out more by visiting www.pattayasports.org or www.birdie.in.th - both these sites include handicap software so you can also track your golf scores and progress.

Pattaya has plenty of driving ranges for you to practice your swing before you hit the fairways, and the number of golf shops has risen dramatically over the past decade, with golf proving popular with tourists, expats and Thais.

There are very few places around the world as good as Pattaya for golfers.

VISA GUIDE

Thai Business Help has been helping thousands of expats and tourists from around the world with all types of visa applications, extensions and renewals since 2010.

They’re Pattaya’s 1st choice when it comes to getting visas and work permits, with many business owners, and even local lawyers choosing them for their fast and professional service that no one else can match.

They offer excellent advice when setting up a business in Pattaya, they’re renowned for the best value too, look at the prices in the advert opposite.

Some customers price compare, and always come back to use their services.

All too often, we hear of horror stories of customers who have chosen service providers who either deliberately mislead, or unknowingly offer poor advice which results in higher prices and add hidden costs, and worse of all, a service that takes weeks and months. Be careful of visa/business service providers that don’t have a website, or don’t advertise in magazines, or those that have been recently setup. This will save you a lot of hassle, time and money.

Thai Business Help should be your 1st choice for visa services, business services, bookkeeping and accounting. You can rest assured you’ll get a good service at a great price, with everything delivered on time to your satisfaction.

They also offer services that include company setup and company changes, work permit application and renewals, plus licence applications for bars, restaurants, guesthouses and hotels, and a host of many other services. So whatever services you need, from visa applications, extensions, renewals to work permits, business services to non-trading annual audits for your home.

You can contact them for more information or to arrange an appointment at their office in Soi Khao Noi, 800m fr. Sukhumvit Road.

NIGHTLIFE SECTION

You don’t need to have been in Pattaya very long to have worked out that the city is brimming with nightlife.

The next 20 pages have nightlife covered so you know the best places to visit.

For our complete guide, visit our website nightlife.pattaya.guide There are some superb hotspots on Walking Street such as Sapphire Club, Taboo Club and Wildcats Agogo plus fantastic live music venues such as The Stones House and many more choices. In terms of nightclubs, you have Mixx and Lucifer that cater for a variety of different genres of music. Along with a few excellent restaurants and the odd street performer, Walking Street has everything in terms of nightlife.

LK Metro just off Soi Buakhao is another of Pattaya’s gems. Once again you will find some excellent bars such as i-rovers in addition to Pulse Agogo, Touch Agogo and other great venues where you will find some of the hottest girls in Pattaya. This is becoming one of the best places for bars in the city and has come on leaps and bounds in recent years and will shortly be overtaking Walking Street as the main place to go.

Of course, Pattaya has many other hidden treasures away from Walking Street and LK Metro. Soi Buakhao, and beyond all have an abundance of bars, massage shops and sports bars where you will once again find a wide selection of beautiful girls who will be more than happy to keep you entertained for an hour or two. Phratumnak and of course the Darkside also have their fair share of hidden treasures if you fancy exploring.

Naturally, Pattaya’s nightlife has far more to offer than just sexy girls and sports bars. Live music is easy to find and most of the bands are excellent, there are plenty of pool and snooker venues to keep you entertained, overall there is a great choice across Pattaya including the Darkside (East Pattaya).
