Getting there-

Flying is the best way to cover large distances in a short time. You’ll spend less time travelling and more time on the ground savouring Thailand. Major Airlines that fly from India to Thailand are Air India, Spice Jet, Thai Airways, Indigo, Jet Airways, Srilankan Airlines, Malaysia Airlines.

Getting Around-

Drive: Visitors who want to have independent travel or do not want to waste their  time waiting for public transport can rent a car or a motorcycle  from local companies as well as international chains.  Some companies also provide a driver for tourist’s convenience and safety.  Vehicle rental companies can be found in big cities, airports, and bus or train stations.

Buses:

An air conditioned BMTA bus, one type of public bus service in Bangkok. In Bangkok, the Bangkok Mass Transit Authority or BMTA, is the main operator of public transit buses within the Greater Bangkok area. The Bangkok Mass Transit Authority offers bus and van routes throughout the city and its suburban provinces.The buses have the BMTA symbol on them, mostly seen below the

driver's side window. These often follow slightly different routings from the main big BMTA bus or do not run along the whole route. BMTA currently operates bus routes in Bangkok and its metropolitan area namely NonthaburiPathum ThaniSamut PrakanSamut Sakhonand Nakhon Pathom.Local buses and Bangkok city buses come in various sizes, types, and prices, from half size, full size, double length, open window, fan, and air conditioned.

Train: Thailand’s train system connects the four corners of the country and is a scenic. The train is also ideal for short trips to Ayuthaya and Lopburi from Bangkok, where traffic is a consideration. The 4500km rail network is operated by the State Railway of Thailand and covers four main lines: northern, southern, northeastern and eastern. All long-distance trains originate from Bangkok’s Hualamphong Train Station. Most train stations have printed timetables in English, though this isn’t always the case for smaller station. Bangkok is the only city in Thailand to have an above-ground (BTS) and underground light-rail (MRT) public transport system.

Taxis: Bangkok has the most formal system of metered taxis, although other cities have growing 'taxi meter' networks. In some cases, fares are set in advance or require negotiation.

In bigger cities, traditional taxi alternatives and app-based taxi hailing initiatives are also available – at least, sort of. Other app-based services include GrabTaxi (www.grabtaxi.com/th), All Thai Taxi (www.allthaitaxi.com) and Easy Taxi (www.easytaxi.com).

Motorcycle Taxi: Many cities in Thailand have motorcycle taxis that can be hired for short distances. If you’re empty-handed or travelling with a small bag, they can’t be beaten for transport in a pinch. In most cities, you’ll find motorcycle taxis clustered near street intersections. Usually they wear numbered jerseys. You’ll need to establish the price beforehand.

Boat: Thailand has two long coastlines – the Gulf of Thailand and the Andaman coast islands.  Also, there are many rivers and canals in Thailand including in Bangkok which once was called ‘the Venice of the East’.  The long-tail boats are a main transport on rivers and canals in Bangkok and neighboring provinces.  Visitors also have a boat trip or river cruise in Bangkok or a trip for snorkeling, fishing or squid fishing in other provinces.

Public Transport: Either long-distance or short-distance trips in Bangkok or other provinces, tourists can travel around by bus, by train, by sky train, by subway, by van, and by Song Taew (small pick-up truck with two rows of bench).

Climate: Thailand climate is tropical with a mean annual temperature of 82°F and high humidity. There are three distinct seasons – the hot season from March to May, the cool season from November to February and the rainy season from about June to October.
