I remember before covid, when New Nordic had the rental guarantee, they had a connection with Chinese tour companies, Pratamnak was at a standstill.

They also seem skittish about walking around. The bus stops directly in front of the venue so they don't need to walk out in public much. Then, it picks up in the same spot. If they need to cross the street they have the lady with the stick and stuffed animal assisting with the crossing. I think they are afraid of being out in public around foreigners. Afraid of being seperated from the group in a foreign country. Edited May 1 by JimTripper 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have also resumed bringing coachloads to the Wat in my village. Moved out here to get away from them! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So do the Chinese. And also don't forget: Aircon inside the bus👍 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The tour members are not afraid of being separated from the main group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post geisha Posted May 2 Popular Post Share Posted May 2 The buses keeping their engines running for 2 hours while the tourists go shopping/ food. Alongside the night market on Jomtien beach road it’s pure hell, stinks the whole area out. They should be heavily fined for pollution. Wishful thinking. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pattaya57 Posted May 2 Share Posted May 2 (edited) Whiners everywhere it seems 😉 I don't mind sitting in a beach road or 2nd road bar checking out if any hot Chinese girls are staring out from the buses going by 😉 Edited May 2 by Pattaya57 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
