Bangkok: Best Go-go bars and Massage Parlors?

[Wim888]

I am happily planning a trip to Bangkok. I was a frequent visitor to Bangkok 20 years ago, but not recently.

What are the best go-go bars and massage parlors for handsome, athletic (or muscular) guys about 20-25?

Would Jupiter and Dreamboy be the ones most likely to have such guys? How many guys would they usually have each night?

In terms of massage parlors, several have recommended Hero and Senso (although some have noted that Senso seems overpriced). Bangkok now seems to have about 30 gay massage parlors. Some advertise only in Thai and seem to be primarily for Thai customers. What massage parlors would you recommend?

Comments and suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Adonis is worth a look for muscular guys and is cheaper than Senso.

I don't like muscular guys, but prefer lean, thin thai guys.

Where to go then?

BKK big city has about 50 of such massageshops, but many open/close without any warning at the whim of the moment.
For the newbee tourist-even if you happen to have been there long, long ago, forget the 30 or so in suburbia-its only in Thai, its way out too far and pickings will be slim. Your type of boy is anyway not very populair in them. Best to restrict to the well known (tourist ghetto) plcaes, that are in all gay listings (gayscout, dreadedned, nickysgaybangkok, travelgayasia).
Beside Hero, about the only one to specialise (clone-alike) to 1 type of boy, most have very mixed crowds, that may change by the day. Most boys work part-time or just a few weeks to gain that motosy or whatever. Some do it beside barwork or beside/between other jobs.
So-there is no answer. Along Silom etc just walk along-there are 12+ in short walking distance, most have their available crew sit outside or behind the windows, so take a look. ASK and talk with the receptionist/mamasan for any specific wishes.
You pay the salon the fixed price for the massage, no tip needed (if the price ands at ..80 or ..90, do not expect the small change), you tip the boy at end of service-or when leaving. MOst have minimum tips posted somewhere-most often 1000. For most Thai the minimum is the normal price-in fact many shops tell it that way in the Thai menu.

Pong, I assume you are referring to sex massage. There are many boy massages along Silom and most of the massages take place in view of the public. Near Prathunam I have a body massage for one hour (with only my briefs on and 400 baht) on the second floor but still near other clients and I tip 200 or so. Not much play though. Shoud there be a step up to more then I would consider a larger tip. My Thai bf only gives 100.

How many guys would they usually have each night? arty

I've only been to Arena and Adonis before.

Arena doesn't have that many guys around (at least that was the case when I was there) and none of those who were there would fit the "muscular guys" category. The owner told me that most of the guys aren't around at that time (I was there at about 7pm).

Adonis has a better selection of guys and a lot of them are muscular. :-)

I've been to Arena at least once on the past few visits to Thailand. Since the last 2 visits were not all that great I will give it a pass this trip.
