The International gay travel company is organizing trips for gay men to visit Thailand in 2016
I was surprised that Pattaya did not get a mention.
I know it is up to local business owners to ponder ,but below is the offer
There is also a 15 day trip that includes 2 smaller cities but still no Pattaya.

Trip Summary 12 day
Our 12-day adventure starts and finishes in the metropolis of Bangkok, the capital city of Thailand and home to AsiaтАЩs best food, nightlife, and shopping. The majority of this incredible trip will be spent on the islands and beaches of Southern Thailand. Below is a brief itinerary of our stops, but for detailed info and available activities check out the links to the left.
Days 1 and 2 - BANGKOK
Most travelers will arrive in Bangkok on day one and head to our meeting spot for our 4pm start of our adventure on this day. This time in Bangkok is a great introduction to the incredible country of Thailand. During these couple days, we'll really get to know the city by checking out Bangkok's highlights using local tuk-tuks, boats, and trains. On our second day, we'll take a guided day-trip around the city visiting Wat Pho, Wat Arun, and more. At night we'll head down the street to check out Silom's famous night market and very lively gay scene. Bangkok is world famous for many reasons and never disappoints her visitors.
Days 3 and 4 - KOH PHANGAN
On day 3 we fly to southern Thailand and boat to Koh Phangan, an idyllic island paradise surrounded by white sand beaches and the perfectly blue waters of the Gulf of Thailand. Koh Phangan offers dense jungles for hikers, beaches for sun-worshippers, and plenty of opportunity to shop, eat, and meet people from all around the world. Stay on land, or jump in the water for some snorkeling, or SCUBA diving fun.
Days 5, 6, and 7 - KOH SAMUI
Koh Samui is only a 1 hour boat ride from Phangan and is the island that тАЬhas it allтАЭ. Including bungee jumping, zip-lining, stunning beaches, and even an amazing nightly drag show, this is an island paradise that never fails to amaze. We've got enough time here to really immerse ourselves in island life. Feel free to get active on Samui or swing away the day in a sun-kissed hammock.
Days 8, 9 and 10 - PHUKET
On day 8 we travel overland to Phuket, stopping along the way to check out the scenery, the people, and the animals of the inland areas. We stop to have lunch with our Thai "family" who are always excited to show our groups their local area. Phuket brings you the amazing west coast of Thailand, an area full of huge limestone cliffs rising from white-sand beaches and endless adventures that keeps that travel bug of yours very happy. ItтАЩs here youтАЩll find opportunities to SCUBA dive, feed wild monkeys, island hop, or get some sun on the local gay beach by day while socializing with people from all over the planet by night.
Day 11 and 12 - BANGKOK
Back to Bangkok! But this time we stay in the Khao San Road area of town to give you an opportunity to see a completely different side of Bangkok. The Khao San Road area is the famous backpackers hangout, full of street food, stalls and peddlers. This is an easy place to stock up on some new outfits or some souvenirs for your boyfriend/mother/bff before you head back to airport on day 12 and wave a goodbye-for-now to Thailand and your new crew of friends. All travelers are welcome to book their flights departing from Thailand at any time on the 12th day.
