About the nightlife in Pattaya & Popcorn GoGo in particular
How are your drinks Popcorn?
Our draught beers are priced at 55 Baht all night.
Ladies drinks are slightly cheaper at 95 Baht, there are no high priced rip-off drinks and there is no cover charge.
Every day we also have various happy hours.
For even extra value, why not try some of the local Thai whisky? Sangthip or Mekhong with soda or coke - wonderful!

Food & Climate
Tell me about the food you can eat in Thailand.
Thai food can sometimes be quite fiery to those not used to it, but there is an equal amount that is very acceptable to western palates. There are opportunities to sample the local food in many restaurants and hotel coffee shops (a good place to start for the less experienced), as well as on the street - the same as the locals.

Can I find more western food here too?
Oh yes, Pizza Hut, Burger King, Kentucky Fried Chicken, Macdonalds, Swensens Ice Cream. All of theseare in the same shopping mall!
There are also numerous privately run European restaurants serving excellent food, see our English Food page.

What's the weather good all year round?
Sure, the easiest way to describe it if you haven't been here before: Three letter word beginning with H and ending with T.

What sort of clothes should I bring with me?
Lightweight shirts and shorts are just about the best things to bring. Sometimes in the cool season (November - December) it can be almost nippy in the evening so bring a sweatshirt.
The Thais are a very modest people, so if you're lpanning on visiting a temples or palaces, avoid causing offence and remember to wear a shirt and long trousers and not a vest and shorts that you might wear in the GoGo.

Is Thailand Safe?
 Thailand is very safe, especially when compared to European or American countries. You may occasionally hear in back home about tourists having a bad press while in Thailand. The reason that the reports get into the foreign press is because there is very little crime against tourists and therefore it becomes a big story.
It is a lot safer to wander around Bangkok or Pattaya at night than London, New York or Sydney.

Visas and Passports
I need a passport, right?
Yes and it needs to be valid for at least 6 months from your date of arrival in Thailand.

Do I need a visa?
Most countries (including the USA, Canada, Australia, Western Europe), you do not need a visa for stays of 30 days or less.  You will get a 30 day tourist visa free when you arrive at Bangkok Airport. Make sure you do have a return flight ticket or another ticket, occasionally you may be asked to show this.
