I would highly recommend to travel within Thailand by " TRAIN " it really is the only real way to travel and see the real Thailand! They are ridiculously cheap ( approx 10 baht per hour journey on a 3rd class Train ) Longer distances i would recommend the Express and Special Express Trains.You can also use these Trains within Bangkok for under 5 baht ( can you afford 5 baht viewers..? ) Trains are generally very safe, too.

I guess you are devoid of the humour gene. But, on a serious note, how can you factor in "an insult" ? Isn't walking the cheapest mode of transport ? Bet you are the life of any party.

nausea Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 For a tourist in Bangkok (or indeed for more long term residents) the long-tail boat service running along the canals from Pan-Fah (near Kao San) is a good additional option to buses, taxis, skytrain, etc. Picturesque, ridiculously cheap (10-20 baht, or something), and you miss the traffic. Service ends around 6pm though, and getting on and off can be a little challenging physically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nigel Farang Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 I understand Motor cycle taxi is cheap - but I've never tried it when I was in BKK last month they were trialling a new canal boat service from Hua Lamphong to Thewet Pier - it was free to use Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
balo Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 On 10/20/2016 at 7:37 PM, Andrew C said: If so, what is the alternative? 3rd class train if you want to move around between cities. Chiang Mai to Bangkok is only 280 baht on 3rd class. Day train , it takes around 12 hours. Perfect for any digital nomads earning $4 per day .
