Local Tips
Real advice from Thai travelers: These tips are collected from Pantip, Thailand's largest online community where locals share travel experiences.
During Pattaya's Wan Lai festival (Songkran), traffic can be very heavy in the city, including Sukhumvit Road and the bus terminal area. Consider alternative routes like going via Ao Udom or Sri Racha to catch a bus or van to Bangkok.
