Getting around in Thailand

Travelling to and trought Thailand is very easy.
There are many airlines operating daily to Bangkok, Phuket and all these famous places.
The country is very well organised. There are buses, trains, boats and planes runing/flying all over the country. You can even take a taxi from Bangkok to Krabi if you feel like.
The most convenient way to make long distances are flights. Thai Airways is the rolls royce amoung the airlines. Bangkok Airways is cheaper and of course there is Air Asia. I recomend Thai because they are very good and collaborate with star alliance. 
So we had a nice flight from Bangkok to Krabi.

tuk-tuk in Bangkoks China Town
In Bangkok the easiest way to get around is to take a taxi or the skytrain or metro. Public transportation is allways fully packed but very cheap. Taxis are the best way to travel trough this city. Not too expensive and with ac. Actually it is better to take a taxi than e tuk-tuk. These small motos are typicall for Thailand and a huge part of Asia. If you get a tuk-tuk for very cheap do not take it. You will have to buy a scarf or a suit.
Down in the south we mostly walked or took a tuk-tuk. Without buying a scarf J
From Krabi you can go by car and ferry to Phuket or Kho Samui for cheap money. I did not try it out but it made a good impression.
