thanks for the feedback.

as im going with my sister only (2 ladies), is it OK and safe to travel at our own via minivan?

how early we should reach the Victory monument if we would like to go railway market? I heard it has to be early, but im not sure how early. unsure.gif

Yea, those minivans are safe coz u need to buy ticket from booths smile.gif

For railway market the train passes it few times a day. I think If u reach Victory monument at 10.30, should be ok. Then u can reach the market around 12pm.spend time there until 3pm+, then can go to Amphawa. laugh.gif

Get taxi. By meter is very cheap.

Hi guys,

Anyone stayed in Centre Point Pratunam Hotel before? Its somewhat opposite to platinum fashion mall and pratunam market is nearby..hmm

Btw anyone can share their rough expenses in Bangkok? im travelling there for 4days 3 nights, how much roughly is the expenses there for guy, only normal walking around bangkok, thought of bringing 5000baht but seems abit too much lol biggrin.gif

im travelling alongside with 3 friends so taxi fare or any transportation fees shud be able to shared among each other haha

thanks!

I stayed there before.. It's near to platinum mall and pratunam market.

As for the expenses, depends what r u going to spend...eg good food or street foods..walking or taking tuk tuk or taxi...any shopping etc....but if 4 of u, the transportation will be shared amongst so it will be very cheap...

Any nice massage in ratchaprapok or near market area? Prefer cheap n skill massage. What bout nightlife ? As I know nearest is nana .
*
Near pratunam market, there are plenty of massage shops.. In my opinions, sometimes it really depends on ur luck to get a good masseurs or get a not-so-good one....

Nightlife depends what kind of night life u r looking for...

I don't want sex just want to have a drink. Scared got scammed that's why.

To Chinatown from pratunam also need boat? Coz I'm solo so a bit worried
*
If u wan clubbing then can go to RCA, the whole street is like changkat lor..route66 is more happening....

Nana is more like Bangla road in Phuket...

From Chinatown to pratunam u can take taxi or tuk tuk...

If you want to have a drink only and not girls pestering you. thonglor have a lot of wonderful bar.

Nana is abit on the rough edge if you are not "used" to that sort of entertainment.

Pratunam to Yaowarat boat is an option, taxi is plenty. Rush hour time not all taxi will take you there. The jam is dinosauric.

There are some famous clubbing place in Khaosan area. Mostly patronised by locals youngsters even some thai celebrity. This type of club you will get the feel of Real thai clubbing scene..rather than those RCA which most foreigner only know. Go walk around and get to know some people there..

Soi Nana is a street and there is a plaza call Nana Plaza. It is more of a place for man only, not a place u bring your gf with you. Like soi cowboy and patpong. The land of all man tourist and expats. You cannot sit down if you dont order, you cannot take pictures.

Tiger show is just a complete waste of time and scam. mai dee.

RCA is your best bet.
