Transportation

Thailand has an extensive network of transportation. Internal flights are a good option to get to destinations quickly. Buses and trains are the cheapest options, but travel times can be long. Always arrive at the bus/train station a few hours ahead of time as tickets can sell out quickly. Minivans and tuk-tuks are also available at most tourist locations but negotiate the price beforehand. Taxi price negotiation is a must and always advise using metered taxis. Grab taxis and bike taxis are other options available in the city. For getting around in each city we recommend renting a motorbike or bicycle.

Estimated travel cost: Internal flights for longer distances cost around 1500 baht and buses/trains around 150-300 baht.

Useful Tips

If you have more time, consider adding the following destinations - Koh Phi Phi, Koh Tao, Pattaya, or the lesser-known Sukhothai. If you have less time, consider saving island destinations for your next trip. Souvenirs are cheaper outside touristy areas, so consider shopping at local markets for a better deal. Always carry Thai Baht in cash as some shops do not accept cards.

Airports

The main airports in Thailand are Suvarnabhumi Airport (BKK) in Bangkok, Don Muang Airport (DMK) in Bangkok, Chiang Mai International Airport (CNX), and Phuket International Airport (HKT). Suvarnabhumi Airport, the largest airport in Thailand, is located 25km east of Bangkok.
