Transport in Thailand

Transport developed in the Kingdom of Thailand very well. This is surprising for the Asian countries in General!

The cheapest form of transport – passenger buses. Tourists can, without fear, to travel on them throughout Thailand. Route lines perfectly organized. There is a schedule for the next few months. This means that you can plan the route in advance.

By rail the journey usually takes more time. But if you want to go to a remote place of the country, without train can not do! The Kingdom is huge and sometimes don't know where they will lead you the way... Tourists prefer night trains. This is a great option if you are, for example, in Bangkok, and want to be on the coast.

Tickets can be booked on a single computer network on the station.

Please note that on the route Bangkok-Singapore goes the famous "Orient Express". Just like from the pages of the novel of Jules Verne. The trip will give you unforgettable sensations. Tourists expect two nights and a day in luxury cars in the style of the 20's. the Prices here are too "luxurious". Well, the pleasure is worth the money!

Thailand in common with Egypt is the fact that in both countries the chaotic traffic on the roads. Because of this, they the chaos. The drivers absolutely do not want to adhere to the slightest rules.

The situation is complicated, because many tourists want to take the car to rent. And here begins the mess! The accident victim, a spoiled vacation... you can continue a conversation indefinitely. Therefore, I advise you to choose a car with a driver immediately. So much more reliable.

Hitchhiking is now considered popular among young people, especially in European countries. But in Thailand it's just not accepted, it is considered bad manners. In many parts of the country, that kind of movement is prohibited by law. And all because of the problems of sexual slavery. So don't skimp. Better buy a bus ticket or a train!

In the Kingdom, as elsewhere, popular domestic flights! This trend is due to low tickets. Country fly exclusively local carriers such as Thai Airways, Bangkok Airways and others.

Few who have not heard about traditional Thai street transport. Tuk-tuk is a popular motorickshaws on three wheels with a motorcycle engine . Today a tuk-tuk is preserved only in the capital, Bangkok. Reckless driver-the driver will take you to any part of the city. About the price it is better to arrange in advance. Because on arrival, it can rise several times, quite unexpectedly for you.

In major cities popular transport consider songthao. It is a small truck or pickup truck with wooden benches for passengers.

Of course, in the country there is a famous brand all way of transportation is taxi. They are of two types – with or without meter. With the driver it is customary to haggle and agree a price in advance.

Give preference to cars with air conditioning, remember the fumes of the streets is large enough. In hot conditions to move into a stuffy transport becomes unbearable.
