Kirsty Turner tells us more about Transport in Thailand.

"Compared to the West, Thailand is actually a very inexpensive country for visitors. If you are willing to dine at small street stands or markets, you can eat a good meal for less than 50 Baht.

"Most towns have at least one large local market, where you can find everything from kitchen utensils, cheap clothes, bags and baubles at incredibly cheap prices. Night markets are also a great place to shop. Usually opening around 5 pm and often packing up as late as 11 or 12 pm, these are also a great place to find a cheap meal, buy fruit and people watch." Kirsty Turner tells us about shopping in Thailand.

"Thailand has three main seasons: the monsoon or 'rainy season', which occurs from July until November, the cooler winter season from November to mid-February and the hotter summer season from March to June." Kirsty Turner tells us more about when to visit Thailand.
