The transport system in Bangkok is represented by a good range of services, which will be discussed further. For those who have not yet been to Thailand and are going to independent travel, this information may be useful. And for those who are going to take the Bangkok metro, and for those who will need to get from Bangkok airport to the bus station or railway station to continue the trip.

One of the main questions of the traveler is where to stay, how to find suitable hotel? I remind you that it is convenient to search for accommodation through a hotel search engine, this is a convenient service where you can compare hotel prices in different booking systems. I have stayed in Bangkok many times and different hotels. I will not provide links to all my reviews, I will give only a few. – convenient for stopping near the airport and metro, – a good place for an overnight stay next to Khaosan, located in the center next to the park.

Types, opening hours, cost

There are three types of metro in Bangkok:

Underground MRT.
Ground BTS Skytrain.
Ground City Line (Airport Link). Only one land line from the airport Bangkok Suvarnabhumi to the city center.

Bangkok metro opening hours from 6:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.

Fare on MRT and BTS Skytrain depends on the number of stations, and is approximately the same on both modes of transport - 15-45 baht.

A large image is loaded on click.

The blue and red lines from right to left are the City Line from the airport (two of them because, one with stops, the other express, but physically they are the same branch). A separate independent branch.
The vertical blue narrow line is the MRT underground.
Two wide branches of dark azure and light green are the Skytrain BTS.
In August 2016, the MRT Purple Line, the purple line of the Bangkok metro, was launched. It's elevated, unlike the blue MRT line. Currently, the terminus of the purple line Tao Poon is connected to the terminus of the blue line (Bang Sue) by free shuttles, and in the future it is planned to connect the blue and purple lines.

Tokens and cards

In the underground metro (MRT) - tokens. At the entrance to the station there are machines where you can buy a token by selecting the desired station in advance. The machine accepts coins, paper, and gives change. There is an English interface. You can also buy a ticket at the box office from a person, or exchange paper money for a trifle, if there are machines at the station that accept only metal. You need a token at the entrance apply to the turnstile, and not to lower into it! But at the exit, just lower it into the slot. If you got off at a more distant station, you will hear a beep, and you will need to pay extra, there is nothing to worry about, ask, they will tell you how.

With the surface metro (BTS) everything is the same, only there are not tokens, but cards. They are also bought in vending machines and according to the same principle.

If you have passed your station, then go back, between trains there and back, the transfer is simple, just cross the platform. And in order not to pass the station, follow the names, or count the number of stations. You can still listen, but at first it will be very unusual.

Bangkok railway stations

Hua Lamphong Station

The Bangkok railway station is called Hua Lamphong (Hua Lamphong) and is located at the terminus of the MRT underground metro station of the same name (on my map above, this is the blue line, on the left).

If you are coming from Bangkok airport and you need a train station, then you need to get off at Makkasan station and transfer to Phetchaburi MRT station. This transfer is simple, now the transition has already been built and you just need to follow the signs. Transfer takes 10 minutes.

Thonburi Station

There is also a train station Thonburi serving direction on Kanchanaburi.

Prices and timetable

The train schedule must be viewed on the official website railway.co.th. Choose the station of departure and destination and see all the information. At prices, for example, a ticket from Bangkok to Chiang Mai costs in a second-class sleeping car (reserved seat) with air conditioning - 791 baht upper shelf, 881 baht lower shelf.

How to buy a train ticket online

It is now impossible to buy tickets online on the official website, only at the box office of railway stations. If you need a ticket in advance and via the Internet, then only through an agency, for example,. Now this is the only service with such a service. Payment by card or PayPal. But the ticket will not be electronic, as the Thai railways there is no such system, you will need to get the original, either at the agency's office (several outlets) or by mail. Here, below you can select the cities you need and see what happens :) There, bus tickets will also be offered.

Bus stations in Bangkok

general information

Intercity bus service very common and represented by a large number of private companies. From almost anywhere you can get to another. The buses are good, comfortable and air conditioned. As a rule, there are several classes - VIP, 1st class, 2nd class. They differ slightly from each other, the width of the seat, as well as the presence of feeding (water + cookies on the bus, and in a cafe at the bus stop).

Sai Tai Mai South Bus Terminal

Sai Tai Mai bus station (Sai Tai Mai), located in the west of Bangkok (Boromratchchonnani Rd, +66 2435-1200, 2434-7192), serves western and southwestern destinations, such as Phuket, Koh Samui, Krabi, Hua Hin.

Unfortunately, you can't get there by metro, only by bus or taxi. I would choose a taxi to quickly and without crap. The cost is about 200 baht on the counter from the center of Bangkok and about 500-600 baht from Suvarnabhumi airport. By bus, it takes 1.5-2 hours to cut from the center of Bangkok. It is better to check with the Thais on the street or at the hotel which bus, because there is a list of buses on the Internet, but it does not correspond to reality. Alternatively, use Google Maps, there is an opportunity to build a route by bus, however, Google is also mistaken, judging by my experience.

Moh Chit North Bus Terminal

Moh Chit bus station (Mo Chit), located in the north of the city (Kampaengphet 2 Rd, +66 2936-3660). The largest bus station. Direction to Chiang Mai, Ayutthaya, Kanchanaburi, Pitsanulok, Sukhothai and others. But you can also go to Pattaya and Hua Hin (by minivans) and to Koh Chang in the province of Trat (bus several times a day).

You can get to the bus station on foot from the Chatuchak Park station (MRT metro) or from the Mo Chit station (BTS Skytrain), walk for about 15 minutes, you can also take bus 138. Accordingly, if you are traveling from Bangkok Airport to the City Line, then you need to change at Makkasan station at Phetchaburi (MRT) or at Phaya Thai station, transfer to BTS Skytrain. The last option is shorter.

Ekkamai East Bus Station

Ekkamai bus station (Ekkamai), located in the southeast of Bangkok (Sukhumvit Rd, +66 2391-2504), near the Ekkamai BTS Skytrain station, and opposite Soi 63. Directions to Pattaya, Rayong, Koh Chang.

Ekkamai Bus Station can be reached on foot from Ekkamai Station (BTS Skytrain). And if you are traveling from Bangkok Airport to the City Line, then you need to change at the Phaya Thai station, where you transfer to the BTS Skytrain.

Bus station at Victory Monument

Victory Monument is a metro station. Near it, until October 2016, there was an unofficial bus station in Bangkok, from where about 4,000 minivans started to various destinations in Thailand. The place was terribly popular, because this is almost the only bus station (albeit illegal), where people got into microbuses directly from the metro and immediately left for home. All this pleasure was accompanied by serious traffic jams on the square near the monument, which, in fact, the military decided to deal with. Now all four thousand minibuses are distributed between state bus terminals, and only a few routes that carry people to the nearest suburbs continue to temporarily stop on the square.

Considering that the illegal bus station has been operating for several decades, and hundreds of thousands of people come here out of habit, the Bangkok government has provided citizens free shuttles to the bass terminals, which, it should be noted, are scattered throughout the city and are difficult to access even for the local population. In the sense that going there is hemorrhoids, costs and wasted time. Shuttles run from Chatuchak to Mo Chit 2 and from Monument to Sai Tai Mai and Ekkamai daily from 5:30 am to 8:30 pm every 20 minutes. The shuttle to Sai Tai Mai starts even at 4:30.

Mo Chit 2 Terminal - for those traveling to the north, northeast and central part Thailand. From the Sai Tai Mai bus station, buses leave to the south; and from Ekkamai you will come to the east.

City buses in Bangkok

Bus service in the city of Bangkok itself is also developed, and you can only get to some places by bus (or tuk-tuk), for example, to Khao San Road, popular among backpackers, where large quantity guesthouses and hotels. Information about bus routes can be seen at bmta.co.th. You can also build bus routes on Google Maps. It doesn't always show the correct bus numbers, but generally works fine.
