Transport to go to Bangkok / leave Bangkok
To go to Bangkok ?
Bangkok is the capital city so it is very easy to connect it by bus, train or plane. There are also many boat + bus packages from the islands of the country. For large and medium-sized cities, buses depart from Bangkok at least every hour in general. From Mochit BusTerminal buses go to Northern Thailand and Isan (North-eastern Thailand), from Ekkamai to Eastern Thailand and from Sai Tai Mai BusTerminal to Southern Thailand (and Kanchanaburi or Damnoen Saduak & Amphawa). Bangkok central train station is Hua Lamphong from which all trains leave except trains to Kanchanaburi which are at Thonburi railway station. Bangkok has two airports, Suvarnabhumi, the biggest and most recent one, where you will most likely land when arriving in Thailand and Don Muang more specialized in domestic flights (there are also some international medium-distance flights) and starting point of most low-cost airlines.Taxis / Cars / Vans withe driver to go to Bangkok
