If anybody is interested in meeting up on april 7th let me know.

Billboard is one of my destinations.

Dates confirmed, 7-8 in BKK after that I move to Pattaya

I'm going to be in town again. Dates aren't 100% set. Might be early april (8th-11th) or late (21-22nd)

Will definitely have one day available to meet up. Will be up to try PIMP Club.

Will drop another message when I actually have 100% confirmation and close to landing

Forgot to share my experience.

I left Patong with mixed feelings. The hotel I stayed at had housekeeping issue, which affected my mood.
It was located in a great place though, close to the OTOP bar complex.

It felt over crowded and there were a lot of russians. You could see Thai's acting different around them.

Prices

Prices for almost everything where higher than in BKK and Pattaya.
If you go to the bars the prices drop. I felt the open bars were a better choice when picking ladies.

Gogo bar

Visited 3 gogo's and all of them hardly had customers.
The girls who were really pushy for drinks and left as soon as they saw they couldn't get a drink out of you quick enough.

Beer bar

Avoid 9 Dragon Sally's Bar on Soi Seadragon. The owner can't be trusted.

Tried a few bars, some have lookers others do not. Though I had a connection with one lady. But she was a pro. Knew how to give you that fake feeling it was mutual but quick to jump on another horse.

One place I definitely recommend is the OTOP bar complex, a lot of small bars. The level of ladies depends. At Caddy Shack 2 I felt they a higher level of ladies compared to the rest. Though still below Bangla road freelancers.
I spend the most time in the area as it was just laid back. Girls weren't pushy for drinks and we had fun playing games.

freelancers

I feel Illuzion is a great spot to pick up freelancers . The amount I saw there eclipsed all other dance clubs. I also loved this place as it is spacious. You can find any level of FL here. From the sub 6's to the top 9s.

You will see freelancers all over Bangla Road standing on the side, sometimes trying to pull a customer closer. But it's mixed. LBs and regular girls standing along each other, so be aware.

Thai Friendly

I lucked out but I read of another guy who had very good success.
Initially I was turned off to use TF by a very gorgeous lady who quoted 45oo for ST and 8000 for LT.
Didn't get a lot of reponses to my messages. It wasn't until later I discovered my location setting was off.
Once i fixed that the messages started to come in.

Massage salon

Though I didn't use any there were a lot on Rai Uthit Song, the read leading to Bangla. Felt the ladies were a bit more aggressive in getting a customer to stop.

Transportation

I mainly walked but the times I took a taxi it was just to expensive.
Compared to BKK and Pattaya the taxi's have a choke hold on the market.

If you take of one the red buses you can lower the price but you're mostly with other people going in a similar direction. So you need to plan this.

Best advice I can give is rent a motobike if you don't drink.

My take

Patong/Phuket isn't for everybody and definitely not for me. The amount of tourist really turned me off. The prices were a shock, despite having read they would be higher.

If you look below 30 you can snap up a few western girls.

Definitely mix it up with trips to islands nearby.

I spend 3 nights with the same lady. Nice face but not the best body. LT eventually was 3000 but she first quoted me 2000 to which staff corrected her. She bought me a gift when I left

For the sole purpose of mongering it's not a great place.

But that doesn't mean you can't find interesting ladies, depending on the quality you're looking for.

My experience was

• Buy SIM at mall
• Setup accounts (Tinder, Bumble etc)
• Get groceries (drinks, food for after going out)
• Meeting a regular
• Lunch

Anybody leaving from Amsterdam Schiphol on the 23rd. I'm able to get you into the Privium (business) lounge for free.

Depending on how plans with my companion go I might be available 24-26

Looking at your location you're leaving from AMS?

Flying Emirates for the first time as well this October. KLM just lost their minds with the pricing, that's not worth the direct flight for.

I'll be able to share some more Phuket info once I touch the ground as I find the information regarding this place to be scarce.
Where do you want to stay in Phuket, there are many places. If you want to be close to mongering, despite being with your Nana girl, Patong is the place to be. Want something more relaxing, Karon, Kata Kamala are popular options.

Veel plezier!

I'm heading to Phuket in November and like you I have been doing research but bump into the same wall of out of date info.

After my trip I might be able to give you more up to date information as it will only be one month between when I was there and when you arrive.

From what I've gathered thus far I can answer a few questions.

Are there beer bars where you can barfine the ladies?

Yes, there is th OTOP beer comples

There are also some in Soi Seadragon. the video below also shows beer bars but I can't pin point the place.

Is the freelancer scene good for girls and what would be average prices to taking a freelancer?

Depends on your definition of good. I've been reading prices of 2500 for ST and even 5k+

My personal fear is that yes there will be FL options but they will cost. And of course you'll be able to find a few that are sitting around 2500. But I keep reading about 5K. Will know more myself when I'm actually there.

I'm planning to stay 10 nights in Phuket and I plan to stay at a hotel within walking distance to Bangla Road.

I do hope you plan to do a lot of activities during the day. 10 days seems like a lot for Phuket if it's for mongering.
Unless there aren't any really budget constraints.

We might cross paths

Have fun out there!

Too bad, I'm in BKK from 20th until 22nd. 

Sounds like you're Dutch/Belgian? I'm from NL.

Dutchie, with caribbean roots

When are you in town?

I'm going to be in BKK from 24 until leaving on the 27th.

Though I feel the website is bias it gives some decent info

https://bangkoknightlife.com/best-gentlemen-clubs/

The room I booked is a  One Bedroom Premier for 3 nights for a total of THB10500.
When I initially looked I got prices of 18000-20000 for the same number of nights.

When I stayed in November in the same room type (One Bedroom Premier) I had paid THB 18000 for 6 nights

Prices seem to be coming down.

I snatched a Premier room for a price I felt decent. Almost 50% cheaper than when I last looked.

How did the trip go?

Had a change in travel plans.

In BKK late October. Staying for 4 days.

Aside from visiting Red Dragon/Mandarin just to say hi for old memories, not planning to do much mongering wise.

Have 2 ladies on stand-by who will take most of my time

Will be able to meetup for those looking to go clubbing or visit lounge bars

Change of plans. Not going in November, but October 2023. And 2 days shorter than initially planned

Did you also reach out to them to ask? That's usually quicker than on this forum.

I've been reading about freelancers slowly stopping to use TF because it's a lot of work and not much leads to actual meetup for them to earn (ROI).

In November 2022 it was still guest friendly.
They don't check for ID. But you can do it for your safety

I stayed in a One Bedroom Premier for a good price and it was super.
Having a washing machine in the room spoiled me for the rest the trip.
Room was facing the back. One night had a screaming guy. And another some construction sounds. But overall no bar/club sounds. Or noises from other rooms.

Looking for my trip in November I saw prices were higher. Almost double of what i paid before.
 

Returning to BKK in November. Will stay in Pattaya and Phuket before that.

Second change at visiting one of the GC's

A combination of public BYS/MRT and Bolt gets you far.

That was a good experience I had in BKK
