Coming to Bangkok, you can travel by many means, from buses to subways, motorbike taxis and there is a very unique and strange type of vehicle, the Tuk-Tuk. Specifically as follows:
– Bus: Just like in Vietnam, in Bangkok buses are quite diverse and the price is also very cheap. You can find bus route maps at most hotels, bookstores and travel agencies in Thailand to make it easier to travel to Thailand by bus.
– BTS train: It is the most popular means of transportation in Bangkok for locals and tourists. If you travel by this means you will feel comfortable, quite cheap, and also very fast, convenient and avoid traffic jams in Bangkok. The current BTS system has routes running to the central area, markets, major shopping centers and tourist attractions of Bangkok. You need 5 – 10 baht coins to buy a skytrain ticket from the vending machine near the entrance. Fees range from 15 – 40 baht depending on how many areas you go to. If you don’t have coins, line up to exchange money from nearby counters.
– Subway (subway): The subway system in Bangkok began operating in 2004. The subway system will help you go to shopping centers, markets, and many tourist attractions. The train departs from 6am every day until night. There is no subway in Vietnam, so when you come here, in addition to experiencing a new culture, you will have the opportunity to know a popular means of transportation in Europe.
– Taxi: If you go in a large group of about 4-5 people, you can take a taxi and split the money so it will be cheaper. The trick when taking a taxi is to agree on a price before getting in the car, it will be cheaper than using the timer.
– Boat/Taxi on the river: You can also take a boat on the Chao Phraya River to some of Bangkok’s tourist attractions, and there is also a boat taxi channel along the Saen Saep Canal.
– Tuk-Tuk: If you take a tuk-tuk you have to pay and the price is not much cheaper than a taxi. Although it is a unique and strange means of transportation for tourists, sometimes this is not a very convenient means of transportation in Bangkok.
– Motorbike taxi: Like in Vietnam, Thailand also has motorbike services. This is considered the fastest means of transportation in Bangkok, but is considered the most dangerous. The “drivers” in Thailand seem to have been recruited from racing factories.
