Taxis are metered and they charged a minimum of 35 THB for the first kilometer and approx. 5 THB/km after that. A surcharge is applied in traffic jams (1.50 THB/m). So when there's not much traffic at night, they're definitely the best way of getting around.

Riding on a Tuk Tuk, a unique Thailand motorised three wheels ‘taxi’ which gets its name from the sound of its engine. It is just popular for a short journey.

Minimum fare is 30 THB for up to 3 kilometers.
