Re: Kanchanaburi border (Phu Nam Ron) for visa runs

Got back last night. Tip: If you are looking for the Border Crossing on a Nav system, Google Maps, etc. type in Ban Phu Nam Ron. Don't forget the Ban in the beginning. Couldn't drive my vehicle over but no need. The little shop on the left drove us over to the Burma side in their little van. Lots of...

Royal Hua Hin GC Dec 2015 Review

Just finished playing rhhgc today. Heard it wasn't in great shape but wanted to give it a go for nostalgia reasons. Overall at 2000 baht green fee it is way over priced. Worth a 1000 baht at best. Suggest you go to Thanarat instead for similar conditions but way better value. For that kind of money ...

Re: Sea Pine Proshop Phone Number

Thanks. I had an old one off the internet and it didn't work. I golfed there earlier this year and should have kept the scorecard.

Sea Pine Proshop Phone Number

Does anyone have an up-to-date phone number for Sea Pines Proshop? I've tried the phone number listed but it says it is no longer listed. I don't live in Hua Hin so not convenient to just drive there. Thanks.

Kanchanaburi Border - Visa Run with own Vehicle

Just looking for any updated information. I have a Double Entry Visa and want to use the second entry. Any issues or are things back to normal? Also, I have my own vehicle so any issues using it to drive over into the Burmese side to do what ever I need to do? I read some of the other threads and it...

Re: Ao Manao/Wing 5 Golf

Back for the winter and played the course two days ago. Worse conditions than last year. Worth 100 baht at best right now. Too bad it is so poorly looked after as the layout isn't that bad.

Money Exchanger (Gold Shop) in Hua Hin

Is there some place in Hua Hin that I can get a better rate for cash than at the Banks? I used to get a better rate in Pattaya that way when I was wintering there. Just wondering around these parts now that I'm wintering in this area. Thanks in advance.

Re: Falangs on the roads in and around

Never lived in Bangkok. Don't like the big cities. Wouldn't even attempt to drive there. I just see so many falangs out and about thinking they have the same rights on the road that they do back in their home country. They will end up hurt or worse over here.

Re: King Mongkut Science and Technology park, Prachuap

I went through the aquarium and made the wrong assumption that the technology part wasn't open. Will pop in my next visit.

Re: Photos: climbing Khao Lom Muak, Ao Manao, Prachuap

Great photo's guys. I winter in Prachuap and was reluctant to give it a go as I have a bit of a bum leg. After seeing these pics I'll definitely climb it next trip.

Falangs on the roads in and around

I rented a car for the past month. What I noticed is how many Falangs don't seem to realize or care how dangerous it is on the streets of Thailand. -Walking 2 or 3 abreast along the road (Yes, we know he sidewalks suck) -Thinking that because they are on the cross walk that vehicles will stop for th...

Re: 3 months in Ao Manao - PrachuapKhiri Khan need accomodat

Have found that there is a lot of reasonably priced accommodation. So many different levels of quality. Also, location wise. Suggest you book a hotel online for a couple days first. Spend those days looking around for longer term units. I'm staying at the O-Bay Design Hotel in downtown Prachuap. Pra...
