How much money for food for 10 days for 2 people
I'm interested in how much we will approximately change dollars to eat for 10 days in Pattaya, because the package includes only breakfast.
And how much money do you need to take with you at a minimum (modestly)?

This has been written about many times, see the questions on Thailand. Approximately $100 per day for two
аватар 99alex
Where are these prices from?
For food at Makashnikov, a maximum of $ 5 for two, in restaurants - well, of course, if you look for something more expensive, you can reach 50. (judging by samui)
аватар aleks_9925
I went for 15 days, took 800 ye with me, it took about 200-250 ye for food for the entire period per person. (and take food with you)
аватар dreiw
usually, those who travel for the first time do not want to eat at the macaroons, as they are warned in travel agencies "of mortal danger." or start eating there already before leaving, but in vain! and in cafe-restaurants it will work out - $ 60 (if you save) or $ 100 (without tension) for two.
By the way, for the new ones, the macarons have the most delicious and cheap food, be sure to try it, you won’t pull it by the ears! in a cafe, too, a dish will cost 2-3 prices.

I agree with allenyshka, there have already been such questions. But if you are too lazy to look, then briefly (I judge by myself) Were in Pattaya. For one, an average lunch in an ordinary cafe is about $ 10. But you can get away with less. Choose Russian-oriented cafes, they have the usual food at an affordable price. But my advice to you: choose local cuisine. It's TAI, exotic! Why didn't you eat borscht or big poppy? For example, we dined both in cafes (nothing unusual) and in local "public catering" (food is prepared right in front of you). "Public catering" is much tastier! Complete unsanitary conditions, but when you see how they fry shrimp, squid or fish, you salivate! And pancakes with fruit and condensed milk from a cook from a mobile kitchen are a masterpiece! And do not be afraid of poisoning: a glass of alcohol in the morning, afternoon and evening perfectly kills all germs on the spot and no poisoning! By the way, I recommend the local wine "SiamSato" - cheap and very tasty. If it were not for the one-year-old son, I would go to Pattaya again just to taste their dishes. So if modestly, then you can safely meet $ 15-20.

Yes, guys, you were intimidated by tour agencies. With my weak stomach in 17 days, everything was super in Thai cuisine at the macaroons. Yes, as far as I understand, restaurants need to be chosen not on the advice of a Russian guide. We have the most expensive dinner on the border with Laos (one waiter at the table and pours, one brings) a full table for 4 people - without alcohol 32 American raccoons!
I do not argue that you can have dinner for 100 ... many people pay 1400 baht for a taxi from the airport to Bangkok, although the norm with the highway is 450 .... If you have never been deceived, you are not a tourist
аватар allenyshka
99alex, where did you see about $100 for dinner? We are talking about a full day (lunch, dinner + snack, drinks, fruits, nuts, sweets, tea, coffee, alcohol ...) for two adults, taking into account different personal preferences. This is the average price in Thailand for a long time. And there, whoever has to, everything that was written here is all right. But people need to be guided by something, even if they want to, they will save money and be glad that they will infringe on your $ 5 for two. Having listened to such advice, I would not want to walk in Tae, seductive for food, without salty slurping.

Thank you - everyone!
This topic was discussed but without a word to a minimum.
I wrote (at a minimum (modestly)), which means without alcohol and excursions, ONLY EAT (including fruits and shrimp). For the rest, I already guess ... and there will be my own alcohol too. If $100 a day for two, of course I will NOT go. But 10 - 15 $ will suit.
аватар dreiw
$15 is 450 baht. breakfast, as I understand it, is included (standard). lunch - soup at the makashnitsa - 35-50 baht, in a cafe - from 50 to 100, depending on the place. beer 0.33-40 baht in seven-eleven, 10-120 in a cafe. the second dish from 40 baht at the tops, in the cafe - 60-120 baht, depending on the dish. Dinner is the same price as lunch. so, together + beer - keep within 700 baht maximum - this is $ 20. Add fruit - for 200 baht a day you will fill up, you want to take something like vodka - the minimum that we saw in the store is 275 baht for 0.7, need to search. whatever one may say, 30-50 dollars, less will not work. but it's worth it!
аватар allenyshka
Your alcohol? lucky or stock up in duty free? It makes no sense, the topic was also recently. No one answered you about excursions, this is a separate issue. Shrimps are also different - Thais divide them into praunces and shrimps. This is in size, and in species - even more. And the prices are different for them like heaven and earth. The question was general and the answer was the same. And $ 100 for two is the average price, so if modestly, feel free to divide by two, if very modestly, divide by two more. And in general, you yourself will decide where and for how much to eat, no one will roll out an insane bill for you at the end of the meal, because there are menus everywhere, they are on the streets near the cafe, you don’t even have to go in, but orient yourself on the go - it’s suitable / not suitable . Makashnitsa by itself are very cheap. So it all depends on you and your preferences. But the opinion of those who have been and love Thailand is voiced by dreiw - "it's really worth it!"
аватар Amir1
just from there. Today they returned. We went without a tour operator, everywhere by ourselves. In cafes, and even more so in restaurants, Thais themselves do not recommend eating, because. food is prepared there for tourists who once ate and left. It may be poor quality and expensive. The Thais themselves eat in the macarons, and these macarons stand there from their grandfather-great-grandfather in one place and value their reputation, because. many Thais eat from them every day. So the food there is tasty, good and cheap. Rice 10 baht, leg 30 baht, rice dish with sea food or chicken 30-40 baht. 1 dollar = 33 baht. Consider. Soon the site will be detailed. Read on my blog. I'll try to write tomorrow. In 16 days, with a flight, all kinds of excursions, an internal flight to Phuket and good food, everything cost 2900 dollars for 2 people.

Amir1 Thank you. I really appreciate your opinion - since I have come across your discussions and reviews more than once, and I think that there is always common sense, a sense of humor, and an understanding of tourists of different categories (wealth), and everyone wants to relax, especially after you visit good location and not expensive.
аватар Amir1
Everyone has their own concept of a good holiday in Thailand. I personally single out 3 options, they all have the right to exist. But more on that in my review. Maybe by the evening I'll finish it, I'll try.
аватар ness25
I'm sorry, very interesting ... I'm going to go ... but somehow I didn't think about food. I came here to read ... And what is Makashnitsa ???
аватар Amir1
ness25 Makashnitsa is, roughly speaking, a grandmother with pies, only there are not pies, but food.
аватар 99alex
...there are no pies! This is something like our mobile hotdogs, only they cook delicious Thai food!

We were in Pattaya 4 times and in March we eat more. Now only on my own. We eat only at makashnitsa and in cafes. If in a cafe, then be sure to see if Thais eat there. If yes, then go ahead. For the price - the most expensive is coconut milk soup with seafood and very spicy (I forgot the name) and grilled fish in sweet and sour sauce. Both for 6USD. And our standard set - noodle soup with seafood, fried rice with seafood and a half-apple each - 5.76 USD.
аватар Amir1
kalmyk prices are clearly not from the tops. In the top box, such a set will cost 90 baht. This is 2.7 dollars. Soup 30 baht, rice with sea food 40 baht (expensive, because sea food), half-pineapple 20 baht.
аватар kalmyk
And these are not macaroons, but a cafe on Jomtien. Therefore, everything is more expensive by 5 baht
аватар Amir1
kalmyk, well, not for 5 baht, but 2 times. And the quality is doubtful, because. food for tourists. Although everyone has their own opinion. This is Thailand.
аватар kalmyk
firstly, cafes differ from makashnits only in terms of the fact that there is a toilet and a shower. Oh yes, and the roof with a fan. The food is prepared in front of me. And the choice is much richer.

Dear travelers-lovers of Thailand! Please answer, is it possible to find accommodation on your own upon arrival in Tai? Or is it better to search through the sites? I would like to go in January-February, but not through an agency, but on my own, but there is no experience of this kind of travel. I think it’s better to make a program of desirable places to visit first, but what about housing? And a visa question. Is it issued upon arrival? Is there an import/export restriction?
аватар kalmyk
If you know at least a couple of words in English, then there are no problems with the settlement. Just decide where you're going. You can order for a couple of days, and then if you don’t like it, find something better. You can order on booking.com and www.sawasdee.com. Cheaper than a travel agency for sure. Transfer from Bangkok to Pattaya 1200-1500 baht. Back 1200-1400 baht. The cars are great and so are the prices. Now visa. If you are a citizen of Russia, then immediately go to passport control, and all the rest first fill out a questionnaire and only then to control.
аватар Amir1
abc_123 agrees with kalmyk on everything. Only he indicates the price of moving for a taxi, and on a bus it is 125 baht one way. The time is no different, the convenience of the bus is more convenient than in a taxi (more space). Book a hotel there. Pick one here for the first day so you know where you're going right away. Upon arrival, right at the hotel, pay it if you like it, then look around and settle in any hotel you like. It will be cheaper than anywhere else. In general, a hotel is not needed there, but this is my personal opinion. I'm leaving on 13.01. Come with me!

Happy New Year and Merry Christmas to you forum members! I hope your liver is still able to digest what you have eaten and drunk over past and future holidays. ))) My body already requires oatmeal! ))) and the sun!
Thank you very much for prompt answers! And, of course, Amir1, for the offer!)) How good it is to be able to navigate abroad like you do!
While I was poking around in Thailand, I got hooked on GOA ...))) Women are so fickle. Prices are approximately the same, even if you break apart: either to the smart ones, or to the beautiful ones? The type of rest is different, but definitely tempting!
A question to Amir1: do you fly to Tai with a transfer and depart from Moscow or Kyiv? I watched flights with transfers - horror (21 hours on the road and the price ... fly away)
аватар Amir1
always with a change. I can't sit 10 hours in one place, but with a transfer it's easier and cheaper. But transfers are different. If you sit at the airport for 12 hours on the way back, then now it’s about $700 round trip, and if you have a good connection (an hour and a half there, and 2 back), now you’ve paid $910 per person. Child 620 USD We are flying from Kyiv. There were also cheaper tickets through Moscow, but again, a long flight and no planes, but Etihit has something.
аватар lenochka333
Amir, are you from Kyiv yourself? Can I email you personally? thank!
аватар kalmyk
now through Abu Dhabi from Kyiv from 750 to 810 dollars round trip. Connections are very good for 2 hours at the airport. Just enough time for coffee
аватар abc_123
And the agency told me that everything is busy in Tae, because. there they have a New Year and all tickets are redeemed before the end of February. And who to believe? :))
аватар 99alex
of course, do not believe the travel agency, they somehow need to sell the goods several times more expensive :-)
... it used to be that for the new year (from 27/12 to 11/01) it’s hard to find, but to not find anything at all is nonsense
