Apart from domestic services of Thai Airways International which flies to major destinations, the country also has a large network of highways and smaller roads linking the main cities with outlying areas.

Visitors with international driving licences may wish to explore the country on their own. There are many car rental companies, including Hertz and Avis, located in major tourist destinations throughout the country.

Travelling by train is another delightful way to explore the country. The State Railway of Thailand provides a nationwide network of routes. Trains offer first, second and third class options, including air-conditioned first- and second-class sleeping coaches.

For getting around Bangkok, there are public taxis and tuk-tuks, air-conditioned buses, motorbike taxis and a new skytrain system serving key central areas. River ferries and water taxis complete the options for daily commuting within Bangkok and its suburbs.
