Are there services for guiding newcomers around Pattaya?
Just received my DTV I arrive on 1 May headed direct to pattaya, would anyone like to show a newbie around are there services for this ? I’m gud for a beer or 10 shots
Summary so far
A new traveler with a DTV visa plans to arrive in Pattaya and seeks advice on exploring the city and connecting with others. The conversation reveals mixed opinions about tourists and the reputation of Pattaya, with suggestions to explore independently. Some comments provide light-hearted criticism or sarcastic remarks regarding drinking culture, while others offer practical advice such as using common sense and mentioning a requirement for an arrival card.
