 Getting
around
Local
transportation in Thailand ranges from good to bad and can
be tricky. There is excellent transportation from Bangkok
to other parts of the country via bus, train, or domestic
plane service, and within the cities via taxi, three-wheeled
motorized tuk tuks, bicycle-powered samlors (rickshaws), or
songthaews (pick-up trucks with benches for seats).
