Publisher's Synopsis
Pattaya: the world's largest red light resort. It was made famous in the 1960s thanks to the wild adventures of GIs who spent their R&R living it up in what has become a truly cosmopolitan haven for sex and sin. This beach resort offers up all kinds of carnal pleasures for those who know where to find it.
Pattaya - The Red Light Guide was written for anyone interested in Pattaya's nightlife, whether they be a Pattaya newbie or an experienced sexpat. This guide offers something for all, as it not only explains in detail how everything works, but it provides a valuable one-stop resource including the best (and most detailed) Pattaya red light maps currently available and detailed red light directories. If you are searching for a Pattaya nightlife guide, then this is the one to get, as it is easily the most comprehensive and useful guide currently available.
What sets this guide apart from the others currently out there? Here are some of the highlights:
- The most detailed (and accurate) maps of Pattaya's red light districts ever produced, including not only correct locations for red light venues, but detailed side street details (including the names given by locals - eg Soi Happy, Soi BJ, Covent Garden), major landmarks, and a few interesting easter eggs added in to see if you are paying attention.
- Our now infamous and cheeky walking tours. That's right - continuing on from our previous guide, we have developed some very specific, hilarious and challenging self-paced walking tours of the red light areas for you to enjoy.
- The most matter of fact and objective advice you will ever find on how the red light industry works in Pattaya, including pricing, "old hand" tips and tricks, our top picks and recommendations, history, and views on current trends in the industry.
- The most comprehensive listing of a-gogos, updated at the time of going to print, to include every a-gogo currently open in Pattaya, with full details including location, description of what it offers and pricing (for drinks and "other things"). We also have an awesome section where we list what we consider to be the current favourite a-gogos, with a discussion on why they made our list.
- We list all of the different nightlife options available in Pattaya. We truly are comprehensive, with not just a-gogos and beer bars, but different massage options, gentlemen's clubs, dance clubs, freelancers, and more.
- We have gone modern and include a detailed section on how to find Thai girls (including bar girls) on-line and all about on-line relationships.
- We have a large section that discusses in objective detail the issues with having relationships with Thai girls, and bar girls, including advice on what issues you are likely to face and how to overcome them.
- We don't discriminate. We include sections dedicated to ladyboys and for the gay scene as well.
If you still have doubts, keep in mind that this guide is written by authors who have a long history with Pattaya and Thailand. Peter in particular, first arrived in Pattaya in 1983 and still calls Thailand home. Jay has a strong connection with the country and is a dedicated researcher.
