“More Nature” is to promote natural attractions in Pattaya, such as the beach and Nong Nooch Tropical Garden. “More Color” is to promote Pattaya to become “a colorful city during day and night.”

“More Business” is to promote Pattaya as a major investment center, and “More Life” is to promote health services in hotels and spas.

All four themes were created to respond to the needs of tourists of all regions and provide standard services that will boost the tourism market and benefits of Pattaya.

Itthiphol estimated that the tours will increase tourist spending by 3-5 percent.

He invited Pattaya-area tourism-related businesses to contact city hall to be included in the package offerings.
