I thought that I would add some Thailand information since a lot of guys combine trips to Cambodia and Vietnam with trips to Thailand. When you take a country as a whole including accomodations, food, attitude of the people, infrastructure, and the easy availability of play-for-play, Thailand is hard to beat. It might not have the absolute best of some things but when taken as a whole, few P4P destinations offer more to the adult traveler seeking entertainment. There is always the question of where to go in Thailand, Bangkok, Pattaya, or Phuket. While all three are great destinations, my favorite is Pattaya. Bangkok is nice but it doesn`t have the wall-to-wall bars and sheer number of girls that Pattaya has and the pollution and traffic in the Big Smoke start to get to you after a while. Phuket has much nicer beaches than Pattaya but it is much more expensive and doesn`t have near the selection of beer bars and go go bars of Pattaya. For me Pattaya has it all so that is why most of the information here will be about Pattaya. With over 20,000 working girls and over 500 hotels to chose from, there is something for almost everyone. The question I get asked most often is "where are the best looking babes". While they are everywhere there are certain different classes of places to choose from. I'll start with the most expensive and work my way down. First on the list are the massage parlors. This is where you usually find the best-looking babes although they are usually a little pricier than even the Go Go bars. The soapy massages are the most popular here in Pattaya and three good ones would be Sabai Land, Sabai Dee, and Heaven. As far as the absolute most gorgeous babes I would have to rate Heaven the best although you need to get there before 7PM since this is when the busloads of Asian guys arrive and after that it is slim pickings. They also have a floor of Russian babes if those are your favorites. At the massage places expect to pay 600 baht ($15) for the basic massage and a 1,000 to 1,500 ($22-$33) baht tip for extras. Next are my favorites, the Go Go bars. These are where the girls dance topless around a chrome pole much like a titty bar back in the States, the only difference is that here you can take them back to your hotel with you for 1,000 baht ($22) instead of paying $10 for a lap dance, heck of a difference :) My favorites here would be the Walking Street Go Go's, IMO they have the most lookers to be found anywhere. My favorites would be Super Baby, Super Girl, Dollhouse, and Happy Go Go. Usually the bar fine (The amount you have to pay the bar to take the girl back to your hotel with you) is 500 baht ($11) and the girls usually want 1,000 baht for short time or 1,500 baht for long time. Beer bars seem to be unique to Thailand. The girls you find here are usually not quite as attractive as their Go Go counterparts and some have said that they like their attitude better. I like the beer bars also and it can be fun playing a game of connect four on occasion but sometimes you have to do a lot of looking to find 'Miss Right', especially if you are looking for a trophy girl. They are out there to be sure but they can be the devil to find but sometimes the hunting can be a lot of fun too. Usually the bar fine for beer bar girls is 200 baht ($4.40) and the girls get 500 baht ($11) short time and 700-1,000 baht ($15-$22) for long time although you will find a few stunners that might want a few baht more. There are more beer bars by far in Pattaya than in any other place in Thailand and they can be fun to hang out in. Drinks are much more reasonably priced than in the Go Go's and the girls usually aren't that pushy when it comes to lady drinks. Usually they will be quite content to sit with you and play their games whether you buy them a lady drink or not. IMO the best looking babes in the beer bars can be found in the Soi Eight beer bars and in the beer bars right before you get to Walking Street on the right of the entrance. Freelancers can be found all over Pattaya but they seem to congregate in the discos that are frequented by farangs (Caucasian tourists) like Marine Disco and Tony's. Although you find the occasional stunner most of the time the available ladies here consist of the ones that haven't yet found a customer for the evening and the pickings can be pretty slim. There are also many freelancers all up and down Walking Street and on Beach Road in the area of the Royal Garden shopping center. Usually short time runs 300-500 baht ($7-$11) and long time 500-700 baht ($11-$15) but your mileage may vary depending on your bargaining abilities. The main disadvantage to freelancers is that if you get a bad one and she grabs your money and runs while you are in the shower and does a runner you don't have any recourse. Most of the time this doesn't happen and you will both have a satisfactory experience, you getting a great roll in the hay and her getting some extra baht. There are also a couple areas of Thai brothels that farangs frequent. There is one near the go cart track on Therapprasit Road in Jomtien. It is on Soi Eight and is about 100 yards from the intersection of Soi Eight and Therapprasit right past the Seven-Eleven store. Don't confuse this Soi Eight with the one located off Beach Road; they are two completely different streets. You will see the girls sitting outside waiting for customers and pink fluorescent lights glowing. A more upscale and much larger area can be found off Sukumvit past Bangkok-Pattaya Hospital. The main street is Soi Twenty, which runs right beside an Esso gas station, and the secondary street is Soi Twenty Two. This is where many of Pattaya's working girls start their careers and there are some lookers here that belie the amount of money they command. Here you will pay 350 baht ($7) for a babe including the room with a 50-100 baht tip for good service. The customers that frequent these areas are for the most part Thais although you will see a few farangs out there also from time to time.
