Taxi
Bangkok

Finding a taxi in Bangkok is quite easy, with thousands of brightly coloured vehicles—typically in shades of green and yellow, or pink—roaming the streets. These taxis are metered, ensuring that you pay a fair rate for your journey. For added convenience, you can also use popular ride-hailing apps like Grab and Bolt, which allow you to book a ride quickly with fixed pricing and cashless payment options. Another way to navigate Bangkok's bustling streets is by the iconic tuk-tuks, the colourful three-wheeled motorised rickshaws. These vibrant vehicles offer a more adventurous alternative to taxis, often negotiating through heavy traffic with ease. While tuk-tuks don't use meters, fares can be negotiated with the driver before starting your journey. For short trips, they can be quicker and more convenient than traditional taxis.
