Been thinking about visiting Thailand and wanted to get the latest intel from those who've been recently.

Specifically interested in:
1. Current price ranges
2. Best areas to base yourself
3. Any safety concerns
4. How's the quality compared to Germany?

Any recent trip reports would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Not sure I agree about that area. I found downtown to be better value.

Can confirm. Was there 2 weeks ago and everything checks out.

I'd also recommend downloading Grab before you go. Essential.

Adding my experience from February.

The scene has stayed the same since pre-COVID. Biggest change: prices up 20%.

With respect, my experience was more mixed. But maybe I went at the wrong time.

Good info. I'd add that going during the week is much better — less crowded, better prices.

Not sure I agree about that area. I found a different part to be better value.

Did you use the local sites or find girls at clubs?

Spot on with the prices. That matches what I paid in February.

I'd rate it similarly. Solid 9/10 destination.
