Torneyboy Posted June 11, 2008 Report Posted June 11, 2008 Interesting first post Welcome to the board
The_Munchmaster Posted June 11, 2008 Report Posted June 11, 2008 Perhaps he's suggesting that Ubon is a dangerous place and that if you go out at night you need to wear protective head gear and carry a club.
Julian2 Posted June 11, 2008 Report Posted June 11, 2008 Sounds like what I've heard about Ubon as well. Cent lives over that way, he may have some idea.
Torneyboy Posted June 11, 2008 Report Posted June 11, 2008 Maybe ...stay away by the sounds of that..
gobbledonk Posted June 11, 2008 Report Posted June 11, 2008 Its gotta be better than Udon Thani - man, that go-go we went to with 2 girls slowly gyrating around the poles was s-a-d. The beer bars made me long for nights around the fire toasting marshmallows - so happy to get back to 'my' girls in BKK after that experience. Missing them right now, matter of fact - headng down to Orchard Towers/Geylang soon to try to take the edge off this lonesome cowboy :smirk:
Julian2 Posted June 11, 2008 Report Posted June 11, 2008 Udon is a town you need to spend a little time on. You're not going to get gogo bars like BKK and Pattaya but there are definitely attractions there. A good place to start is at expat restaurants like Steve's Bar for a meal and get talking to the long term expats there. They will point to to a few out of the way karaoke bars where the action is really on. A little Thai language and a lot of politeness pays big dividends. This virtually applies to any provincial Thai city.
klaasje Posted June 11, 2008 Author Report Posted June 11, 2008 :smirk: My first post on this forum wasn't very good indeed. Sorry for that. So some more information. I am a enthousiastic bicyclist and I am gonna make a 5 week trip this year from Udon thani,Khon Kahn,Roi Et, Yasothon, Ubon Ratchathani and further to Pakse in Laos and ending via Phnom Penh in Siem Reap. I like to do sporty things but like also having a good time in the evening. So if anyone has information about good hotels and nightlife in Yasothon and Ubon Ratchathani, it is very appreciated. Because the budget of a bicyclist is not unlimited,I try to sleep for 1500 baht at the max. I have already information about Udon, Khon Kaen and Roi Et, but good suggestions are always welcome
Bangkoktraveler Posted June 11, 2008 Report Posted June 11, 2008 1500 baht will get you the best rooms in Ubon. At night time, a young crowd that likes to have a good time hangs out there. A lot of motorcycles. As for bars, they are there. Some of the girls are not too sure what to do with farangs. Meet a massage girl in a hotel. She gave a good massage but really wanted to boom boom. Her main goal was to get a farang. Everything is in walking disatance from the bus station.
