Getting Around Bangkok

Updated 2026 · Totally Bangkok

The BTS Skytrain, MRT subway, river boats and taxis cover almost everywhere you'll want to go.

BTS Skytrain & MRT

The elevated BTS and underground MRT are the fastest way across town, avoiding Bangkok's notorious traffic. Rechargeable Rabbit cards work across both networks in most cases.

River & canal boats

The Chao Phraya Express Boat is a scenic and practical way to reach riverside sights, while canal boats on Khlong Saen Saep cut across town away from the road network.

Taxis, tuk-tuks & ride-hailing

Metered taxis are cheap but drivers may avoid the meter for tourists — insist on it or use an app like Grab, which shows the fare upfront.
