For people who have been to Goa before, this would be a familiar mode of transport and probably developed because of the need to beat the traffic.

It can be recognized easily as the Taxi Bike owners wear an Orange colored jacket.

Underground Train (called Subway or MRT) is similar to Sky Train except that of course, it runs underground. It connects to some more part of Bangkok and also connects to Sky Train (BTS) at some points.

This is quite useful as you can cover a good part of Bangkok using both BTS and MRT.

Bangkok offers lot of Boat tours & cruises on the Chao Phraya River and there are about 20 different stops. Few “must-see“ spots like Grand Palace, Wat Po, Wat Arun etc. can be covered by boats. Apart from these, there are a lot of dinner cruises on offer. Normally, these tours are to be booked in advance.

The Sky Train is so called as runs on the rails parallel to the second – third storey of the buildings. It is an extremely useful way of getting around in Bangkok especially during rush hours when all modes of transportation fail. The announcements inside the train are in English and easy to follow.

This is the easiest mode of Transportation in Bangkok. It doesn’t work well in rush hours when a local train would be a better choice.

Taxis in Bangkok are air conditioned and come in different colors like Yellow-Green, Orange or even Pink. They will have a hood on the top saying “TAXI METER”. The meter shows the figures in Thai Baht straight away. It starts with 35 Baht (for the first 2 Km) and that is the minimum you will have to pay. However, the increment over 35 Baht is not that fast (5 Baht per Km after 2 Kms) and so it becomes a viable choice for long distances.
