Bangkok Reports

SuperRich is the best option at the airport for sure. They are certainly not open 24 hours a day though, so depending on the time you are transiting BKK that can be problematic.

Anyone in the lower Suk area should check out Vasu Exchange: http://www.vasuexchange.com/.

SL.

Generally they demand notes be in pristine or very good condition IME, and advised elsewhere.

€100 and €500 notes get marginally better rate than lower denominations. Probably same for US dollar etc.

Also they have a branch in the Nana BTS IIRC.

Did someone say they tipped the cashiers?! The north American tipping practices really beggar belief. Though in Italy we don't even tip waiters so I may be out of touch with what's expected in the world of tipping. LOL.

I don't see why so many people exchange home country cash for Thai cash. My ATM card has worked perfectly and it gives a better exchange rate than posted at the cash exchange places. You do need to get an ATM card that charges no fees and reimburses the Thailand ATM fees (e.g., Schwab and Fidelity). I do bring some cash and a second ATM card for any possible emergency, but so far I haven't had an emergency. The airport ATMs are open 24/7.

So I can use my Schwab card at a good exchange rate and they waive ATM fees just like in the US? Great to hear. I have Fidelity as well. I'm planning on paying for most lodging before I go, if I need to pay with a Schwab card at a store do they nick you with fees?

I have been using the Schwab ATM card since 2014. It changed how I travel. I used to bring a ton of Dollars on every trip. Now I bring $1,000 in cash for backup and emergencies and I never use it. But let's be clear on one thing:

The Schwab Debit Card has no ATM fees and offers unlimited ATM fee reimbursement plus no foreign transaction fees on withdrawals made abroad.

The Fidelity Debit Card has no ATM fees and offers unlimited ATM fee reimbursement, but it charges a 1% foreign transaction fee on withdrawals made outside of the USA.

Take your pick or you can just carry a wad of cash in your suitcase. Hey, I remember when people used to bring traveler cheques.

Probably 1 to 2 baht better than the airport.

There is a SuperRich on the lower level of the airport. It's in the general direction of the train into the city but it helps if you know where you are going beforehand.

If you can bring $US in cash and then go to a money changer linke "Superrich" they will give you baht for virtually no exchange costs. If you use ATM's then you will most likely be paying 2% to 4% depending on your card. ATM is probably safer, I personally like cash!

Taxi's from the airport now are a lot better. They lineup and you get given a ticket etc. Just jump in and make sure the turn the meter on. Some will try it on by saying 500 fixed fare, just say meter and point and they will turn it on and it will run 300+ change. They will also ask to if you want the motorway or not. You pay the tolls on the motorway by giving cash to the driver. I think it is 70 baht in total. The time saving is worth the $2.

Novotel on Sukhumvit 4 is great. I have stayed there many times, it is worth paying the extra couple of bucks to get a high floor facing the city as the views are really nice. They also have an Ibis attached to the same complex for about 2/3 the cost. Very guest friendly, as it is on soi 4 you will see plently of guests up and down the elevators. I fondly remember having breakfast there with one of Nana's finest. We sat down next to a HiSo local Thai couple who were horrified at me and my Isan Princess. The look on their faces were priceless - 555.

How do I get the top floor rooms, are those the deluxe rooms? Something I ask for upon check-in?

"It's better to ask forgiveness than permission".

My first trip to BKK is finally happening this month.

1. Hotel & Soi 7 & outcalls.

Staying at a hotel on soi 7 for ten days. I called the front desk asking policy on girls in rooms. "As long as no overnight. Guests ok. " Later I booked on their website for two adults so maybe I could have a girl overnight. I'll ask again when I get there.

If I order an outcall, do I need to meet the girl in lobby / street and walk her in? Can she just come to my room on her own? If I pull street talent or barfine, can I just walk her in or do I need to stop by the front desk? I suppose I'll figure all this out when I'm there.

I mainly chose the hotel due to relative proximity to Nana plaza and BTS. I didn't realize it was so close to the soi 7 beer bars which look to be a fun, convenient way to barfine girls and walk 2 minutes to my room. But with some girls being there just for show, the ever-changing scene affected by covid, re-openings and police, soi 7 could be hit or miss. I partake in the MILF talent of my home city. I wouldn't run away from a talented, late 40's beergarden pro if she's dirty, slutty, sexy and price is right.

2. Soapys.

I'm keen to try a high-end soapy experience. Recommendations? Unsure if Poseidon, Colonze, Emmanuelle, Nancy, Black Caviar are open. I'm leaning toward La Belle or Nancy. I've read that arriving early makes for the best girl selection. Like 4-5 pm. I just want to have a mind-blowing experience that I will remember until I die. Happy to pay for the ultimate PSE thrill ride with wild uninhibited girls, (not sweet, innocent starfish) . 2 x girls? VIP room?

Tulip. Like I said before, I partake in milfs in my home city. Usually BB. I'll probably end up here at some point unless I find success negotiating BB elsewhere.

Go gos & bars. I'll definitely hit up nana plaza and cowboy frequently. But if I feel like I'm being targeted as an easy mark for pocket-emptying girl drinks or doubled drink scams, its going to get old real fast. Sipping a beer and watching girls on the pole without a whole lot of aggressiveness sounds funwith an option to barfine if I find an irresistible gem. I want to make a list of "must see" bars that are NOT at the Plaza and Cowboy. Suggestions appreciated.

3. Street talent.

Is Thermae just a cafe that just happens to be a hub of FL activity? Curious if the walk from Thermae to soi 7 is short enough for a girl in heels. I might be inclined to change things up and bring an African girl back. But I've had some seriously bad experiences with black girls in the US. American black girls are all about the hustle and scam. Its rare to find a black provider with integrity. I would hope non-american black girls would be more fun, less scammy.

4. Online.

I'm inclined to work fiwfans but I can't speak Thai.

5. Tinder.

I'm matching civilian girls and they're fun to talk to. Not sure I want to spend a whole day on a date with them that doesn't end in wild, all-night sex. Since I'm only in town for 10 days.

Off-topic: Anyone know of a place where I can buy decent quality CBD tincture? I'the rather not fly with it. Reddit has been unhelpful. No THC. Just CBD.

Thanks MaxBKK,

I would of loved to see the look on their faces as well. I stayed and the ibis down the street last time. I don't mind paying a bit more. The room smelled like the inside of a bleach bottle.

Is there a superrich at the airport? I have no idea how easy it will be to get baht ahead of time in Canada plus I know I will need USD for Lao so will bring some with the ATM as a reserve fund LOL. So Taxi should be about 300 give or take plus the the extra 70 for motorway tolls?

Cheers again!

Instead, try Thai Friendly as there are a bunch of girls there that are freelancers. It's quite easy to look at profiles to find out who freelances, mark them as favourites but don't waste time contacting them before arrival. Getting Premium WHEN you arrive is a good idea as you can then send unlimited messages. Be polite as many girls will not be freelancers, it's not like Pattaya. Also get Line to communicate, ask if they freelance and their Line ID.

Hi mongers,

I am a silent reader of the forum, I will be in Bangkok on Monday for a full week. Have already shortlisted a few girls for the trip from TF and other online platforms, rest will pick up from street / bars from this beautiful, unique and magnificent city. Can someone post photos of girls so one knows the current quality in the city. I feel helps one and all. Keep banging and play safe, cheers!

Hello fellow mongers.

Returning back to BKK in a month, I was there last just before covid hit.

Coming from Canada wondering what is the best method for getting Baht. Change in Canada at the bank, get USD then change to Baht in BKK but I feel I would be getting ripped by doing to separate exchanges if so where is the best place and then obviously pulling out from ATM as needed as I don't want to be carrying two weeks of fun time cash with me. I will head to Lao or Cambodia after a few days in BKK then back to Pattaya for a week. Do I need a multi entry visa or will I just get another 30 day toursit visa on my return?

I arrive pretty late so will take a taxi from BKK. My understanding is about 300 baht to Nana How do I ensure I am not getting ripped off?

Planning to stay at the Novotel on Sukhumvit 4 , I don't need anything too fancy as long as they clean the room every day. If anyone has any suggestions in that area for a similar budget recommendations are appreciated.

My last experience with the GOGO and Beer Bars in BKK were pretty miss. I will probably still check out the GoGos for fun but will relay mostly on Smooci or Bangkok Golden Escort. I understand it's more money but hoping through some research and vetting will increase the chance of damn good time. Daytime action will be from Doki Doki, Kokoro maybe Tulip. It was a good nasty experience last time but the girls neither the place looked that great, but I will none the less check it out and give everyone a sitrep of the escorts, bars, massage places and whatever might be useful to the members here.

My plan on returning back to Thailand is head down to Pattaya for a week. Have never been before. Plan is to entertain myself with a mix of GC, beer bars, free lancers and maybe a night club.

My plan is to stay at the Holiday Inn Express, seems like decent value. Again not planning on spending too much time in the hotel other than for business, but of course recommendations are appreciated.

If anyone has some answers to some of my questions that would be awesome and look forward to giving a good solid report or two.
