Transit

Thailand's transit is strongest in Bangkok, where the elevated BTS Skytrain and MRT metro are clean, cheap and expanding, easing the capital's notorious traffic. Outside Bangkok, options narrow to buses, songthaews, tuk-tuks and ride-hailing (Grab, Bolt). Intercity travel is inexpensive via extensive buses, trains and budget airlines, though walkability is patchy amid heat and traffic.
