Overview If you're planning a trip to Thailand, make sure not to miss out on Krabi, Phuket, and the Phi Phi Islands, alongside your visits to Bangkok and Pattaya. For a balanced itinerary, consider spending 3 days in Bangkok and 3 days in Pattaya. This allows you to visit all the major attractions while still enjoying some relaxation time. Both Pattaya and Bangkok are among the most budget-friendly destinations in Thailand, though Pattaya generally offers slightly lower prices for accommodations, nightlife, and dining. Pattaya is particularly renowned for its vibrant beach parties that continue both day and night. For solo travelers looking to enjoy the nightlife, Bangkok and Pattaya offer a wide array of bars, pubs, and resorts that cater to singles, providing plenty of entertainment options.
