Thailand questions
Is 4 days enough for Bangkok street food?
Four days covers the main areas if you focus on one neighborhood per day. Use BTS and MRT lines to reach Chatuchak Market and Yaowarat Road without long taxi waits.
Do I need to book a street food tour in Bangkok ahead?
Book the Yaowarat walking tour at least one week in advance for weekend dates. Most individual stalls do not require reservations and accept only cash.
What is the best time to visit Chatuchak Market for food?
The main market opens around 9 a.m. on Saturday and Sunday and runs until about 6 p.m. Go early for the widest choice of food stalls.
How much cash should I carry for Bangkok street food?
Carry 500 to 1000 baht in small notes per day for meals and snacks. ATMs are available near BTS stations but add fees of 150 to 220 baht.
How many days do I need for temples and hills around Chiang Mai?
Five days covers the main sites at a steady pace. Add one or two days if travel to Mae Sa or Doi Suthep-Pui National Park takes longer than expected.
Do I need to book Doi Suthep tickets in advance?
No advance booking is needed. Foreign visitors pay a small entry fee at the gate (check the current price), and arriving before 8:00 beats the crowds.
