Transportation

This page is for sharing informations and tips regarding transportation in Bangkok.

Overview
Traffic can be a nightmare, so a good practice is to take taxi or motorbike to the nearest BTS and then take the BTS from there.

Taxi
Taxis should use meter to calculate fares (Tell the driver: By meter). If they're not using meter just skip it and take the next one. There are many available taxis in this city, so don't worry if you say 'no' to any driver who doesn't use meters.

Taxi app: You can download 'Grab' app to hail a cab (choose 'GrabTaxi or 'JustGrab''. It will charge you 20-3o baht service fee, but there are many coupons provided by the app (check its 'Notifications')

Uber is not operating in this country anymore.

Motorbike
Motorbikes are fast as they can go between cars, and are less affected by traffic.

A motorbike from the UN to the Ratchathewi BTS station should be 60 baht.

Motorbike app: You can download 'Grab' app to hail a motorbike (GrabBike, Win). Uber is not operating in this country anymore.
