Budgeting for Bangkok

3 of my oldest friends and I are meeting for a well overdue trip to Bangkok in early January 2026. We've got flights and accommodation sorted/paid up and we'll be in the city for a total of 10 days (9 nights).

We've not got any major ambitions while there outside of eating good food (no fine dining or fancy restaurants) and exploring the city in general. However, what makes this trip different from my 4 previous visits to Bangkok will be the fact that with the boys, alcohol is going to be a daily feature. Again, not fancy cocktails or bottle service in clubs but certainly no less than 5-6 beers a day each and maybe a few bottles of wine here and there. Furthermore, I have no interest in gogo bars or paying for girls but I'd certainly get a regular massage every other day.

On top of that, we'll be spending on transport (BTS and MRT mostly) and paying to get into a few temples but that doesn't really move the budgetary needle much, in my experience.

So, the question is - what would you say a reasonable/safe budget is for the trip? Does EUR 100 / USD 117 / THB 3700 per person per day sound comfortable?
