Great video DAZ…I’ve rented a car from this company a couple of times before they are an excellent company to deal with very very helpful staff I would highly recommend this company to anyone wanting to rent a vehicle.
Great video. This company looks and sounds outstanding. I’ve rented in many countries worldwide normally without issue, but always with reservations. The questions you asked and the answers given show this to be a first class company. I will definitely use them on my next visit to Pattaya
Thanks again Daz for showing and sharing the best places and resources in Pattaya! Thanks to Shane for his open and clear explanations regarding renting vehicles.
i rented a car from them in Feb they were great, everything was spot on and the prices were great, 5000 baht cash deposit was returned to me in just a few minutes as soon as they checked the car, very happy and would use again.
I rented from Pattaya Rent-a-car in Sept/Oct 2022. We hired a Toyota pickup and it was almost new and it was certainly comfortable and reliable. I can verify all that Sean said about deposit, photos of the car condition when you rent etc.. Rental was great value and hassle-free too. I would recommend without hesitation.
This is a very timely video. I will be moving to Thailand on May 4th and be staying in Phratamnak Hill about 500 meters from their office. Thanks for another useful video Daz
Ive been waiting so long for a video on rental cars and have been asking different vloggers if they could do one but with no success. You have absolutely made my day doing this vlog.Thank you so much.I am going to contact this company to rent an Everest for 3 weeks when I come up in October/November this year.Thank you again.
Great vid! FYI: it's an "International Driving Permit (1968)" you need to supplement your driving licence. In the UK, they're £5.50 at a Post Office. Plus best learn to ride a scooter before coming to Thailand!
As always, I think that it is necessary to rent a means of transportation, especially when staying for a long time, to shop, hang out, and discover beautiful Pattaya. I think I will rent a motorbike for the duration of my stay to enjoy it. Thank you, my friend Daz
Can't praise them enough Daz, we hired a Toyota hilux revo in January very pleased, not only with the vehicle but, also the customer service that lady speaks good English. I agree with you, go for someone you can trust. Also the prices I checked at the time were the best 👌 😊
Hi Dan, great Video again been watching you for a long time. I’ve been going to Thailand for a very long time and have had problems with car/bike rental companies even with my Thai wife of nearly 30 years. As I’ve been around a long time I’ve always took my own photos with car/bike staff beside me so they know that I have a record before I drive the car/bike out of the rental shop. That way there no dispute when returned, I had this very problem in Pattaya 2 years ago let’s say a company ran by Falang from Eastern Europe country who tried the old scratch scam needless to say I was not having any of it. So the old story you get what you pay for ( don’t go done the road cheap is better ) meant to say I was Master Mechanic and sold cars in an earlier life so I know a little about these things. As you said not only Thailand have these problems it’s everywhere Buyer Beware. Keep up the great work Irish Paul
Wheter in Europe or Thailand, I always thoroughly inspect and record a video while doing so. Any findings are pointed out with the staff member in frame or in audio. Upon returning it, there's never been any issues after their inspection. Not even an attempt.
The videos helped me immensely.I had a good lay of the streets and geographics and places to stay..MaxxCity was a great choice they are very helpful and the place is nice. Spent the night last night at lisa bar beach road filming the great band ,sitting with BigBoss and my lovely lady boy companion who works for BigBoss.. Still amazed that no thai girl ive met can swim wont even go in pool..My line binging with many pretty thais morning, noon, evening , and late night messages WHERE U GO. Lotsa fun Good Times. Good thing I quit drinking yrs ago Id be in really bad shape by now
Very interesting Daz, Ive just got back from Pattaya, had a great time apart from a rash caused by the songkran water..... I was actually going to rent a car but then worried about the risks and potential hassle if things went aray.. Ill definitely visit this company on my next visit...
Seems odd speaking to a guy without actually seeing him, apart from a brief glimpse. I assume he didn’t want to be on camera? The prices and service seem top notch tbh. Great info.
@@stevemcdougal9220 like I said. Maybe the guy didn’t want to be on camera. It’s the only reason i can think of why he didn’t show his face, apart from briefly.
Great prices I rented mopeds had an issue with balance trying to so slow waiting for a light to change. Maybe fell once or twice as well as my ex. I think three wheel rentals would be gold whoever comes up with it first IMHO
Hollywood can you check out some other places which rent ADV Honda 300 or 350 or Nmax 300 etc please if you can find as this is the Bikes I use when in Pattaya.
Another great and informative post Daz...I suppose it is more cost effective to rent vehicles for tourists but for ex pats living in Thailand is it better or worse to own a car/motorbike..? Also can you do an update on Kayla the former realtor...didn't you say you wanted to get a tattoo..?
I been looking for a rental company with a new body style Everest and a late model Fortuner with Toyota Safety Sense and Carplay/Android Auto. I know who i'm going to see for my automotive needs in a few months
In this post, the owner stated he restricted his motor bike purchases to the smaller bikes. He said he also rented Yamaha NMax and PCX but didn't want to rent larger bikes. He also stated the renter is restricted to the local Pattaya area. Hope that helps. The motor bikes are shown around ~5:00.
Last time when i gave my bike back, the thai renter said i had an acciment. But i didn't . He wants money, which i had to pay. It was a bad experience because he gets aggressive. This is a Mafia in Naclua near Dolfin circle
I can confirm everything from my own experience. The company is absolutely reliable, reputable, fair and professional. However, I found the image section a bit strange - is the owner shy?
Hi there, Love ur vlogs ,very helpful. I m planning to move Pattaya . I was wondering how much is a monthly membership for a medium to high end gym with heavy weights . I appreciate your response back🙏
Here in Canada if you want to drive a motorcycle you have to have a class 6 license. He didn't say the same for Thailand he just said an international license but as far as insurance is concerned you have to have a driver's license for a motorcycle to drive a motorcycle. I find it odd that he didn't specify a certain class rating for a motorcycles license
I was wondering this too - do you just turn up on the day and choose from what’s there? I’ve tried to contact them about making a booking for Jan but no luck.
Text Das this video was very helpful. He made reference to if you could cross the border with the car but I can't recall what he said about that are you allowed to take the car out of Thailand to the neighbouring countries for a road trip?
Licence needed for electric bicycles 🚲? (if I buy my own) I know you don't need a licence to ride a bicycle in the U.S. I'm legally blind and can't drive a car in the U.S. But I can ride a bike during the day.
@@everythingPattayaThanks for your informative video. I watch all your videos. Can you talk about where to rent a bicycle in Pattaya. I know there is one bicycle rental shop at Jomtien several years ago. But I don’t know if the shop is still there. Hope you can give us some information in this regard since a lot of people don’t have motorbike license.
Hollywood if you can please check out these MotorBike Rental services they are both Excellent Swiss Bike Pattaya & Speed Bike Motorbike Rental both have great websites and show the Bikes they rent plus all the prices on the website a must to check out.Beach Rd bikes close to McDonalds not sorry to say are crap years ago rented 2 bikes as I drove off the bike would not turn into a corner when i looked at it the forks have been repaired so it had been in a accident took it back other occasion pulled over by police rego was out also there other bikes the big RD Bikes have damage a waste of time indeed.As I have been riding Bikes for over 40 years own a Aprilia RSV4 used to race bikes many years ago now its for pleasure when in pattaya I ride the ADV 300 OR 350CC or Nmax 300 very good dependable Bikes so if possible check those 2 places out cheers.
Don't let that bother you the vehicles are excellent and the service is too. We hired a Toyota hilux revo in January, very happy with it and they were very accommodating with extensions to the hire due to family issues. The lady featured speaks very good English too.
There's another point that might be of note. On his web site, he has three mechanics taking care of the fleet. Not one poor overworked SOB, three guys AND most of the rolling stock is late model. Maybe the sign isn't perfect BUT these other indicators speak loudly to me. Lastly, a heck of a lot of his stock seems to be rented a lot of the time.
Trustworthy is very important word
Based on your suggestion im gonna take moto bike for rental in next month❤
Good choice
Great video DAZ…I’ve rented a car from this company a couple of times before they are an excellent company to deal with very very helpful staff I would highly recommend this company to anyone wanting to rent a vehicle.

15:45 You can see the proprietor briefly.
It annoys me that he cannot keep the camera still and he cannot keep it on the man he interviews

Too bad they don't have a wider range of bikes.

Great prices I rented mopeds had an issue with balance trying to so slow waiting for a light to change. Maybe fell once or twice as well as my ex. I think three wheel rentals would be gold whoever comes up with it first IMHO
Hi Daz, could you please make a short video about what to do/not to do on a motorbike in Pattaya? I think it could literally save lives.
Yes, can do
I would be happy to do another video on this topic
Think I'll be trying this place out
very good imformation thx
Very useful information and video. Waiting for your video on buying gold and if you could recommend a gold shop that is trustworthy. Thanks in advance
Fascinating vlog Daz, very much appreciated. I have a Piaggio MP3500 here in the UK. Are they available to buy in Thailand?
In Thailand, better to stick to Japanese bikes IMO
Hollywood can you check out some other places which rent ADV Honda 300 or 350 or Nmax 300 etc please if you can find as this is the Bikes I use when in Pattaya.
Bigger bikes are available from the renters on beach road, at the same prices as a car.
Another great and informative post Daz...I suppose it is more cost effective to rent vehicles for tourists but for ex pats living in Thailand is it better or worse to own a car/motorbike..? Also can you do an update on Kayla the former realtor...didn't you say you wanted to get a tattoo..?
As an expat, I own my own bike.
This will be where I'll rent from for all my transportation needs. Excellent vid.

How reliable is the public transportation if one wants to rent a bike for the city and travel around the country by bus or train?
Safe, reliable but slow.
@@everythingPattaya yeah, like everything else in Thailand, right? :)
2:30 exact same laptop that i'm watching you on. LOL

Hi there,
Love ur vlogs ,very helpful.
I m planning to move Pattaya . I was wondering how much is a monthly membership for a medium to high end gym with heavy weights .

Thailand only have Car and Bike licenses, but the Inter License has to be the relevant one.
@@everythingPattaya Thank you.
Daz, when you buy a brand new Honda Click in Pattaya, how many years/km do you expect it to last you for all of your running around town?
100K kilos
@@everythingPattaya - I’m surprised. That’s a long way with the poor road surfaces! Very good value for the new price in Thailand.
When they say you need a driving license, do you need a motorcycle license or will a car license suffice?
You need a bike license they are 2 separate ones
No Yamaha Tricity? Would be perfect for that type of environment.
We don't have sorry
Seems like a good rental company. Good prices too . Cheers Daz
Can u recommend and good trusted tailors for business shirts etc ?
Sorry, not really
I enjoy some of your videos, but i wish you would put the camera on the person you talk to and keep it still.
That depends on the person, not me.
I am camera shy. Not Daz's decision on that one
Is it mandatory to have international driving license to rent a scooter/bike?
No, but if the police stop you, it's a fine
Hello! So we need a international license to rent a motorbike ?
Ride, not rent
The website says no advanced bookings via the website???
I was wondering this too - do you just turn up on the day and choose from what’s there?
I’ve tried to contact them about making a booking for Jan but no luck.
Is the Mercedes E300 e on 10:51 also avaible for rent?
Ask Shane
That's my car but available to rent sometimes
Text Das this video was very helpful. He made reference to if you could cross the border with the car but I can't recall what he said about that are you allowed to take the car out of Thailand to the neighbouring countries for a road trip?
No, you can't, the insurance is only valid in Thailand
No you can not because the insurance become invalid, sorry
