Public transportation options in Bangkok are extensive and affordable. The BTS Sky Train has two lines, with stops primarily in the Sukhumvit and Silom districts (10-40 baht per trip). The BMCL Subway has numerous stops throughout the city and runs daily from 6am-Midnight (10-15 baht).

There are several types of busses running expansive regular routes – the open-top style is the least expensive (3.5-5 baht), while the enclosed, air-conditioned versions are the priciest (8-20 baht).

Metered automobile taxis are widely available. Motorcycle taxis are also common – bargain the rate before embarking on a journey. Tuk-tuks, three-wheeled vehicles, are more common outside the city, although you can still find them in Bangkok; negotiate a fare in advance. Water taxis are quick and reliable if you need to travel along the river, and fares usually run 10-15 baht.
