anyone tell how much a taxi would cost from Suvarnabhumi Airport to New Road Guest House hotel on 1216/1 Charoen Krung rd bangkok.
also how far is it from khao san road?
The price at the taxi stand should run you about 600B and that should also include the toll. You could get a meter run taxi and that may run you about 400-500 but probably about the same to Khao San Rd. You are better off with the taxi stand. Unless it is way out of the way, the price will be the same in the general area of downtown.
I think the cose might around 400Bht, not over than 500Bht (if in traffic jam). For Khao San Road, quite far, take taxi around 100Bht.
if you get on the cabs that actually run their meter - about 300 Baht + 80 Baht toll, that's off peak hours
strongly suggest, stay away from cabs that refuse to turn on their meters...
You should try the local food. I'm from Europe and I had never seen many of the fruits that they have in Asia and some very so good (like rambutan and mangosteen) and others are terrible (like durian). But it is worth trying it.
One of the oldest & largest temple of Bangkok(tough maybe too touristic now), it houses a 46m gold plated reclining Buddha. It is so big that U can never see it entirely, as it is inside a building and the walls are to close to see it with good perspective. The only way to seee the whole statue is from the feet, in a very extrene perspective...
There is a massage school here, and they give masages for about 3-4 USD. Ask at the ticket office.
I was met several times by school children during my stay in Bangkok and Thailand. They usually were sent to places like the Royal Palace or Wat Pho to interview tourists to practice their English. I met a group my first day in Thailand. They were adorable, shy and polite, but with a schoolchild giggling streak. They asked general questions about where I'm from, where I'm going, do I like Thailand, etc. They either wrote down or recorded my answers, and then left after a few minutes.
If you are approached by a group, do them a favor and say hi. It is not a scam, they don't want money, but I saw so many others refuse to talk to them. It is a fun experience, one that has stayed with me even after the trip. Enjoy it.
Pad Thai is available everywhere in Bangkok and it cost 35 baht at chatuchak, 40 at pratunam, 50 at siam paragon foodcourt, 55 Baht at Took Lae Dee Foodland Supermarket. but I was intrigued by this offering at the Suvarnabhumi Airport of Crispy Pad Thai, it was deelicous and spicy! but the price was 350 Baht a box (expensive!)
Biking in Chom Thong area, Bangkok
