With so many options, narrowing down an area to stay can be overwhelming! As a general guide, Sukhumvit is great for shopping and nightlife, the Riverside area is where you will find many of Bangkok’s best hotels while Khao San offers many mid-range and budget-friendly options.

If you're looking to experience the vibrant culture, delicious food, and bustling city life of Bangkok, you'll need at least a few days to really take it all in. You don’t want to go so hard you need a holiday to recover from your holiday (although we can help with that too).

Bangkok has a tropical monsoon climate and as such, has three seasons – hot, rainy and dry. As a guide, the driest months tend to be December and January however the shoulder seasons from November to February are usually pretty good weather-wise. The hottest month is April, and the rain tends to  start around mid-May and reaches its peak in September.

Generally, driving a car in Bangkok and attempting to find parking is more challenging than it’s worth. The easier option is to hire a car and driver through the hotel, hire a taxi driver (or a motorcycle taxi, known as motorsai) or, for short trips, jump on a túk-túk. There’s also trains and boats depending on your destination.

Pack your sunscreen, comfortable shoes, modest clothing for the temples and a sense of adventure for a memorable holiday in Bangkok!
