Sinbi Muay Thai
Week and month cover two group sessions a day. One a day is 3,000 and 8,000, three months 27,000, a year 85,000. The room rate is low-season twin share per person at Sinbi Apartments, 300 m from the gym, and it includes two group sessions a day.
Tiger Muay Thai
Tiger adds 7 percent VAT on top of every figure here, so budget above these numbers. The week and month are the all-inclusive option covering any class in the camp. Muay Thai only is cheaper at 4,400 a week and 13,500 a month. The single session, and a full day pass at 1,000, are drop-ins sold at the camp only. The room is the cheapest standard room and a month is counted as 30 days.
Against the country
They quote the same figure on 3 lines: sessions a day, rooms on site and takes beginners.

What we cannot tell you yet
Neither camp has been confirmed on the lines below, so this page does not compare them. They are named rather than left off, because a comparison that only shows the fields it happens to hold is the shape of a page pretending to be complete.

In their own words
What each camp is
Sinbi Muay Thai
A long-running Rawai camp that stayed Muay Thai only while neighbours diversified into MMA. Reputation is built on Thai trainer quality and pad work rather than facilities. Suits people who want to actually get better at Muay Thai rather than sample several martial arts.
The full record for Sinbi Muay ThaiTiger Muay Thai
The largest and best-known training complex in Thailand, running Muay Thai alongside a full MMA and BJJ programme. Big enough that you can always find training partners at your level, and structured enough that a total beginner is never left guessing. The trade-off is scale: it feels like a fitness resort rather than a Thai gym, and it is priced accordingly.

What people ask about Sinbi Muay Thai and Tiger Muay Thai
- Is Sinbi Muay Thai or Tiger Muay Thai cheaper?
- Sinbi Muay Thai, on the line most trips are booked on. A month of unlimited training is 12,000 baht there against 16,800 baht at Tiger Muay Thai, a gap of 4,800 baht. They both quote 4 other priced lines, and Sinbi Muay Thai is lower on one and Tiger Muay Thai is lower on 3. A cheaper month is not a cheaper trip. Food, a room where the camp has none and the flight home all sit outside these figures, and a camp that is 2,000 baht dearer a month is the cheaper of the two the moment it saves you a daily taxi.
- What is the difference between Sinbi Muay Thai and Tiger Muay Thai?
- 5 of the 8 lines both camps publish come out different: a single group session, a week of unlimited training, a month of unlimited training, a private session and a nightly room rate. They match on how many sessions a day run, whether there are rooms on site and whether beginners are taken. What separates two camps on the mats is the trainer you get put with, and no camp publishes that. Use the lines above to cut the list down, then ask both.
- Is Sinbi Muay Thai or Tiger Muay Thai better for a beginner?
- Both. Sinbi Muay Thai and Tiger Muay Thai each read as a room somebody who has never trained can walk into. That is a call made at a desk from what each camp publishes about who it trains, not a verdict from the mats. A gym built around a fight team will take a beginner's money and leave them holding pads at the back for a month, so ask both how a first session actually runs before you book either.
- Can you stay at Sinbi Muay Thai or Tiger Muay Thai?
- Both. Sinbi Muay Thai and Tiger Muay Thai each say on their own site that you can sleep at the camp. The nightly rates run 1,000 baht to 1,100 baht. Staying in means the commute stops being a decision you make twice a day at five in the morning, which matters more than the saving on most trips shorter than a month.
- How many sessions a day do Sinbi Muay Thai and Tiger Muay Thai run?
- The same number. Sinbi Muay Thai and Tiger Muay Thai both run 2 sessions a day. That is how many are on offer and not how many anybody should plan on taking. A timetable says when the door is open; how many times you walk through it is most of the difference between a training holiday and a camp, and a first week of doubles is how people spend a second week injured.
- How far apart are Sinbi Muay Thai and Tiger Muay Thai?
- About 6.7 km in a straight line, measured between the two pins rather than along a road, so a motorbike covers more ground than that and traffic decides the rest. Both camps sit in Phuket. That is a ride rather than a walk, so trying both in one trip means picking a base and paying to cross, or splitting the stay in two.
