Hi David, I am a wheelchair user. Most of the bars are accessible and people are very friendly and will try and help where they can. The small downside is even though the have access at the front the toilets are not accessible. But I have been 4 times and coming back in Feb for 3 weeks. Try the sunshine hotel and residence on so 8 for hotel accommodation and I would advise visiting hotels for accessible rooms when you are in town. Anymore questions please ask
I am in a wheelchair and thinking of taking a trip to Pattaya. I have been there a few times before my injury. My question is how do you recommend getting from the air port to Pattaya?
30:45 👀 😍 I’m trying to keep eyes front David; but that, right there, is one of the many reasons I and many others book the next trip to Pattaya within 2 days of returning from the latest trip. 🎉🎉
I’m Eating my Pad Thai Gai ! Drinking a San Miguel light and watching your Video! Happy days David! Bloody freezing weather here in England!..!8 weeks until my return to visit Pattaya again . Take care yourself David and keep safe!
Great to catch up as always David. Town is plenty busier than it was in July. The little beer bar with live music i go to in Soi Diana had over a hundred people in it Wed night from 10pm to midnight, not a spare seat or lap to be had. Thanks for the ride around as always
@@glenn9229 thanks for the intro Glenn, sure you had a great night last night. The little bar just outside Boomerang was absolutely jammed with ladies, may be worth a look if you are in that area 🙏🙏
Nice Video, watched a few of yours over last few years, always good info😁 I use to go in Epic Bar last Dec/Jan , hopefully it’s still open on my return beginning of the New Year 😁👍
40 years ago Pattaya wasn't much more than a big village. 20 Years ago Pattaya was a town. Now Pattaya is a city spread across a vast area. It'll be interesting to see what Pattayas high season is like because the hotel availability and pricing suggests it'll be busy despite the global economy. We shall see...
It’s heaps busier, as you said it’s a lot more spread out. But the prices are a lot higher. Our wages haven’t kept up with baht. So it costs a lot more to go out over there.
Exactly around early 2000 you could go out with 2 or 3000 baht and have a good night including company now you would need 6000 a night including company and there was very little short time now that's all they will do wham bang thank you mam and they are gone next in the old days you had to kick them out they wouldn't leave 😅
I have seen where the dollar has gained a little on the pound and euro but hardly anything on the baht. It seems Thailand refuses to fluctuate their exchange rate during the high season.
What you have to weigh up as well is Vietnam and Cambodia and the phillipines are getting more and more popular as well and like you say there's far more bars and complexes in pattaya as well these days
Good video the town is noticeably busier. I first visited in 2009 stayed at the royal Cliffe. Only went into walking street. And the beach road. Bearing in mind furthest I want was miles mall. Lol. Used to be a cracking Irish bar in ws. Didn't allow unaccompanied in nor did it have ladies. How times have changed lol
It was 20 years ago today Sergeant Pepper taught the band to play They've been going in and out of style But they're guaranteed to raise a smile So may I introduce to you The act you've known for all these years Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band
David, if both you and Nong have a cough it MAY be time to get the Condo AC unit services/sanitised if you haven't had it done recently. Hope you're both over it soon.
Hi david, i tryt to become a member .but the ideal pay program doesnt work from your side . Is the message that i get, love your video's.👍 men! Greetings from Leiden, Holland
Hi Richard thanks for reaching out. I am really unsure how the payment system works on YT. Unsure if anything on this link will help support.google.com/youtube/answer/9972274?hl=en&co=GENIE.Platform%3DAndroid 🙏🙏
My take on motorbikes parking up everywhere let's just look at LK Metro do you really think a fire engine could go down there safely if say iRovers was on fire it would be carnage pushing the bikes out of the way of the fire engine, if this happened in the UK the bikes would be smashed up and the owners of the bikes would have to pay for the damage to the fire engine and then the police would be giving out tickets like confetti to the owners of the bikes 🤨 I don't know what the law is in Thailand but that's what they definitely should be doing, 6 years ago there wasn't as many bike parked in LK Metro you cannot walk down LK Metro without tripping over one.
Hi David great video and love your horn like Nong said are you gonna sell ice cream because it's remind me when i was young the guy with the ice cream truck had a horn like this and he was ringing his horn so the kids will go to see him and buy ice cream thanks for the memory oh the girls who was lickings her Mr.Freeze that's how we call that here in Chateauguay i'm sure you know she was a Ladyboy and when i saw her i was laughing it's still seem quiet the high seasons i guess gonna take longer too start have a excellent day David and take care and stay safe my friend sawatdeekhrap kopkounmakkrap. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
@SoybooCow Sorry my friend 555 I was never good with punctuation or even in French I was terrible I only pass my final exams in French because my French teacher was my girlfriend at the time and we had to keep secret because I was 16 years old but when I turned 18 years old I told my parents and my Mother say to me I'm your Mother I know everything and she even tell my dad but my Father didn't believe until I told them you should see the face of my dad when he look to my mom she was laughing I was with her for 15 years and she got cancer and died that was hard for me I love her very much . But I have to say you make me laugh my friend I hope I will be able to meet you if we are in Pattaya at the same time it will be awesome. 🤣🤣🤣🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Good to see some bars looking a lot busier. Others look like it’s gonna be a long hard slog. Disappointedly the £ looks like it’s lost it’s Trump bounce and falling away even further since the video n

You mentioned Soi Chaiyapoon at the beginning of the video. Its actually Soi Boomerang,

Love the content
There are plenty of parking spaces between the back of the LK Metro bars and the LK Metropol hotel..only a few steps walk.

Another nice ride about with an added extra at no extra cost. THE BEER BOTTLE SHOW starting at 10:05. Cheers from Canada
Great video again
It was pretty empty 15 years ago. Sone kind of canopy structure, One tree, a couple of restaurants on the side. But not much overall.
It’s heaps busier, as you said it’s a lot more spread out. But the prices are a lot higher. Our wages haven’t kept up with baht. So it costs a lot more to go out over there.

@philliproberts7294 so true, I had to tell my girl awake and go home or else putting you on the cold tiles floor 😂
It was a delightful ride, take care and be safe.
David cool Videos i like ❤
So was that Indian Jeff Goldblum at the end?

Pattaya is not as wild as it used to be.Still good though.

Dave the place is virtually empty, when does high season officially start, appreciate your videos.

Yes a a empty site before you walked onto Skaw Beech road.
Strachan Haas ice cream bike
David, if both you and Nong have a cough it MAY be time to get the Condo AC unit services/sanitised if you haven't had it done recently.
Hope you're both over it soon.
Thanks David :) Like and subscribe!!

boomerang soi
what happend to the bars behined u at the start by warm up bar ?
@hach... been closed for a few weeks now. Not sure why. Only Tuk's 2 is open, far left.
I have come across where some azzhole motorbike riders have parked in front of businesses making it extremely difficult to enter or exit.
My take on motorbikes parking up everywhere let's just look at LK Metro do you really think a fire engine could go down there safely if say iRovers was on fire it would be carnage pushing the bikes out of the way of the fire engine, if this happened in the UK the bikes would be smashed up and the owners of the bikes would have to pay for the damage to the fire engine and then the police would be giving out tickets like confetti to the owners of the bikes 🤨 I don't know what the law is in Thailand but that's what they definitely should be doing, 6 years ago there wasn't as many bike parked in LK Metro you cannot walk down LK Metro without tripping over one.
Lasvegas Beer Garden is owned by indians.
Strange. I thought it was the same guy who owns LV gogo
Great ride around I forgot about those hidden bars next to Soi x-zyte.
31:56 - Soi "Watch Your Cheeks"
Hi David great video and love your horn like Nong said are you gonna sell ice cream because it's remind me when i was young the guy with the ice cream truck had a horn like this and he was ringing his horn so the kids will go to see him and buy ice cream thanks for the memory oh the girls who was lickings her Mr.Freeze that's how we call that here in Chateauguay i'm sure you know she was a Ladyboy and when i saw her i was laughing it's still seem quiet the high seasons i guess gonna take longer too start have a excellent day David and take care and stay safe my friend sawatdeekhrap kopkounmakkrap. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Thanks Michel, yes some seem to get upset if I say "its a boy".loving the horn buy wish it was not on my camera hand 😅
Michel, Michel... punctuation, buddy🤭

If the roads weren't congested everyone would drive faster and accident/injury rate would be much worse I think.
Very good point
Good to see some bars looking a lot busier. Others look like it’s gonna be a long hard slog.
Disappointedly the £ looks like it’s lost it’s Trump bounce and falling away even further since the video n
These bars that don't like you filming are not doing themselves any favour.
But the girls are. Don't want to lose their sponsors, esp not in low season.
@ninettemurk7492 If their sponsors paid more the girls would be back in their village.
@@ninettemurk7492 it's not low season anymore, may seem that way, but it's not
@@Nigel-ef2ft I doubt it in most cases, as they'd miss their friends and the excitement of living in the city.
It's a lot quieter than a few years ago.
Sin is what you seek. Now that you have found it. Your nightmare has just begun😢
