second of attention. I rarely use this forum, I own a condo in Bangkok, unfortunately I needed to go to Pattaya because someone passed away. I did not had the time to research, my question was simple. Thankfully some "normal" people replied it and I found a company that took me there for a fair price - I did call a taxi on the way back which was 50% more... I have hesitated to replied to "stupid" comments. Seriously, people. what is your IQ? What is the point to give a condescending reply? Does it make you happy? Seriously?

Thailand is the only country i known where the majority of thais are there to look after you and not rip you off you can go to a barvand leave your wallet phone go gave a game of pool go to the toilet ans its still be there if you pre book you can find thousands of honest people here. Taxi and motorbike taxis try ripping you off so get a bolt or pre book.
