Transport…..
From WPT Gym there are a number of ways of getting to downtown Bangkok:
Taxi
Pro: door to door service
Con: Expensive
Walking
Pro: free
Con: time consuming and can be very tiring in the hot weather
Bus
Pro: cheap
Con: can take up to two hours depending on traffic
I decided to try the bus, especially as today I was visiting the Gurdwara. The bus stop is on the main road and shows which busses stop there.
Bus number 60 will take you from this bus stop to the Grand Palace and costs 23 Thai Baht each way, a bargain!
Once you see the bus coming you have to flag it down, otherwise it will drive past you.
On the bus you just find a seat, the ticket inspector will come to you and ask your final destination, they will then give you the price.
