Health: Be aware of the air pollution, especially with exacerbation from heat. The heat requires physical acclimation and diligence on hydration. It is highly recommended to drink only bottled or filtered water.

Getting Around:
There is a wide selection of transportation options for the bustling city of Bangkok. Boats, bicycles, buses, taxis, tuk tuks, and the metros to name a few.

  • The BTS Skytrain and the MRT Metro are the most convenient methods of exploring the ‘new’ Bangkok.
  • Decline taxi drivers who refuse to utilize the meter
  • Women sitting next to and physical contact with monks are frowned upon
