Thailand is an outstanding country to tour with rented transport. Traffic
is moderate and manageable, except in Bangkok. Highways are in good condition,
and directional signs are often in English. Less expensive rentals are available
from local agencies, but make sure to check the condition of the car thoroughly
before handing over your money. An international driver's license is required,
and insurance is mandatory to be able to drive in Thailand. Trains:
An efficient rail system links major northern and northeastern towns with the
Bangkok. A southern route permits the visitor to travel by train into Malaysia
and Singapore. Domestic express trains include first, second, and third- class
cars. Slower trains may have only third-class seats. For four major regions northern,
northeastern, southern and eastern can be traveled by train from Bangkok Railway
Station (Hualumpong). For more information regarding railway schedules, contact:
Bangkok Railway Station; Tel: (02) 225-0300, 223-0341-8, 223-7461 Buses:
Bus transport in Thailand is fast, clean and reasonably comfortable for
shorter journeys. Most buses provide reclining airline-style seats and video movies.
Both air-conditioned and non-air-conditioned buses are available on major routes.
The cheapest are the ordinary coaches operated by the government bus company called
Bor Kor Sor. Air-conditioned buses operated by independent companies are usually
30 to 70% more expensive, but complimentary meals and transportation from your
hotel to the bus terminals are often included.
