Goodonya Mate, another information info share, now subscribed. Got me busy downloading apps ahead of our arrival in Bangkok :)
Cheers! Thanks for the kind words! Safe travels!
I m planning go to Bangkok Thailand in this march for vacation these information are great 👍, thankyou so much! Mr, Cal ! Wish you healthy / happiness and good luck!
Thank you for the kind words! Enjoy the vacation and good luck to you too!
Hope u enjoy ur trip to Thailand 👏
Thanks, Cal, you are so positive. I like to listen to your suggestions.
Thank you for the kind words 😊
App - Explore Bangkok - Bangok BTS and MRT map (Includes Pink Line).
Thanks for the tip! Cheers
Just a short note: Lazada deliveries from China usually arrive within 1 week, not multiple weeks. Great video, thanks.
This is true. They will usually arrive within a week, but the key word is usually. I’ve also had times when it took weeks… so I had to include that information otherwise I’d be giving bad advice if there is a risk that it won’t arrive. If somebody is leaving in a week, they shouldn’t risk it.
@@thebangkokguide Good stuff! When did you move out here? I lived in Philippines for 17 years, and moved out here in Jan last year. Currently live in ThongLo.
I moved here in 2015 and have spent 8 of the last 10 years here. I’m over at Rama 9 these day!
Thank you Cal! I will be in Bangkok this November for one month, and I will be downloading some of these apps like BOLT and MUVMI. I already have the other apps from my trip last April.
Glad it’s helpful! Bolt is definitely my preferred transport app overall these days.
I'm moving to Thailand in January so this was very helpful thank you 👍🏽 new sub
Thanks for the kind comment! Let me know if you have any questions.
I'm going to Thailand April 15th I really needed this video I downloaded all the apps thank you
Cheers! Glad it was helpful. Safe travels!
I’m in Bangkok now, this is helpful❤
Cheers! Glad it’s helpful!
Thank you for sharing. I am going to Thailand in December. watching from Florida.
Welcome! The climate here always reminds me of Florida!
We get a lot of hurricanes here.
@@maistephens2437 This is definitely a big difference!
Grab also works in Vietnam and a bunch of other Asian countries, very good and you can drink and they drive.
Agree. Definitely my go-to app when I visit anywhere in Southeast Asia!
Thank you very much cal, that is very informative.❤❤❤😊
Thanks for the kind words! I’m glad it was informative!
Nice video my man!
Thank you!
Awesome man thank you 🙏
Cheers!
Yet another great video full of valuable information. Thank you!!!
Thank you! Cheers
Thank you for sharing- I wished I found your channel sooner- since I been here in Thailand for a month and lots more things was difficult & I have been scammed left and right.
Sorry to hear that. Unfortunately there are a lot of scams in the main tourist areas! Try to get outside the tourist areas as the Thai culture is much friendlier once you get out of the tourist areas!
Yes, you are a real deal my friend. 555
Also Please, explain to the tourists about hiw to use the QR code to pay in Thailand too, Thai QR payment or Bank Apps or money wallet so you no need to use the real money anymore like the Thai because I heard a lot of youtubers that came to Thailand and they did a video about how to pay in Thailand but they just thought that we Thai still use the cash because most of them couldn't use their Credit Card here so they thought they only have to carry the cash and they did the content to teach people, But instead in Thailand we Thai rarely use the credit card nowadays because we all used the Thai Bank Apps and money wallet such as Truemoney, shopee pay or Thai QR Prompt Pay so you only have to scan the QR and pay and you could also use this apps to pay to most of the street venders herev too.
The QR code payment options are great. I recommend True Wallet in my video about money in Thailand. Perhaps I will discuss all of the available options in a next video! Thank you for the suggestion!
@@thebangkokguide Thank you very much my friend💕💕💕🙏🙏🙏
@@onalonan cheers 😊🙏🙏
Thanks mate!
Nice stuff
Im going next week
Thanks for the kind words! Enjoy the trip!
Great channel mate, Im also in Thailand and have started a TH-cam channel. There’s so much content to film here! Keep up the good work 😊
Cheers! Thanks for the kind comment! Looking good too. Good luck!
Another great video.
Keep the ammazing job !!!
Thank you so much 😊
From Cambodia 🇰🇭
The predetermined price for Bolt is nonsense, my price ended up being 3 times more expensive than what the app initially said.
It depends which ride you book… the predetermined price is only for the car option. For the taxi it is an estimate but it’s normally quite accurate.
Subbed! Great channel, keep up the great work!
Thank you for the kind words!
Thank you for this, I just landed in Pattaya with my family today and looking to go around! However Grab taxis seems overly priced than Bolt?
I find Bolt is normally cheaper… but it can be harder to get a ride. I usually just check both prices.
muvmi sounds interesting - i never used a tuk tuk when i was in Bangkok.... with this app it seems possible.
Yes definitely. Not the most convenient but allows for the experience.
Спасибо за интересное видео, приложения очень полезные. Буду использовать в следующей поездке.
I’m glad it was helpful! Cheers
Very Good
Thanks!
Great video😊 what app would you recommend for train, mrt ?
I recommend you watch my newest video as I cover this and 23 other apps that you will find helpful! But I recommend Moovit, ViaBus and google maps overall.
Hi Cal, fellow Canadian here from alberta! not sure if you'll get this message but im planning my first Thailand trip to the usual suspects (bkk, chiang mai, phuket, and koh samui). was wondering if you recommend vaccines? if so which ones? also, I've been hearing SO many different opinions on Bangkok belly. specifically the ice. its safe? its not safe? etc thank you so much!
I would recommend that you watch this video, as it covers all these subjects! Cheers! th-cam.com/video/5UMT_5KYYMY/w-d-xo.html
Great video, Cal. As a fellow ginger Canadian who will be living in Thailand in a week, I very much like your vids, and I’ll help increase the ginger dude numbers in Bangkok. 😂
Thanks! Haha welcome. Where you from?
@@thebangkokguide I’m from Vancouver. Lived there for just over a decade. Need a change now so it’s Bangkok for me. How about you?
@@mikewilliams4168 Nice. Good move. I’m from Toronto and spent time in Ottawa as well. It seems like it gets worse there everytime I go back. 😂
@@thebangkokguide Toronto used to be pretty cool. I went to TIFF a couple times. But yeah it’s the same in Vancouver, demonstrably worse with each passing year. Cost of living going thru if the roof.
*thru the roof
Great video, Cal! Good tips for my visit end of this month. Qn: can you advise where should I transact in cash as well as qr code or bank transfer payments? Is there an app or ewallet that visitors can use easily?
Thanks for the kind words! Unfortunately there isn’t an app or ewallet that is available for tourists. You need a Thai bank account to set one up.
Thank you for the great information Cal. Do you know if these apps will work if I will be using the T-Mobile roaming plan there in Bangkok?
Most should work but a couple might require a Thai phone number. I would highly recommend you just buy a Thai SIM card as it will normally be much cheaper to just swap out the sim during the trip. I will be covering SIM cards in an upcoming video!
Are there any apps for free/to purchase purchase mobile data
Can someone mention the list of apps here
Thank you for the info. Is there an app that allows me to find out which public Tranporation to take?
Google maps is quite good…just put in the destination and it will give you the public transportation options! Cheers
Hi Cal. Excuse my ignorance. When i order a Bolt cab, do i pay at the start or at the end of my journey. Do they accept cash or card, or do i have to have an account for payment. Thanking you. Tim K.
No worries. It's always better to ask. You always pay at the end of the trip. At this time Bolt only accepts cash in Thailand. They are still a bit newer, and I would guess that they will integrate card payments soon. Let me know if you have any other questions. Cheers
Hi Cal, thanking you for your prompt reply. Your a gentleman. That has answered my query perfectly, much appreciated. I am a new subscriber to your channel and find it both enjoyable and informative. Respectfully yours. You take care friend. Tim K.
@@timkeightley7573 Thank you for the kind words! Cheers!
At the end
how can i use thai scan pay without a thai bank account?
Unfortunately I don’t know of any ways to use QR without a Thai bank.
Hi cal..... Should we buy Thailand line?
I don't understand the question!
Does bolt accept credit cards in bangkok? Easy to use bolt at the airport? Il be going to the ramkhamhaeng area
Yeah, Bolt has credit cards now. I haven’t ordered to the airport before, as I normally take the airport rail link or the registered taxis. But I think it should be fine!
What are your thoughts on wise?
It’s good. I’ve used it quite a lot over the years
Okay but it does need a Thai bank account right @@thebangkokguide
I've heard youtube premium is cheaper in Thailand, I'm moving there next month and will sign up, it more than twice the subscription here in Australia. Have you had experience doing this? Cheers.
Yeah it is cheaper! Most subscriptions are cheaper! Cheers
Thank you 🙏
Welcome!
Grat video can you do sone shopping video with price and the quality
Sure. It sounds like a good idea!
What's the best mobile payment app? I use GPay here in the US does that work in Thailand?
There are local mobile payment apps. True digital wallet, Line Pay and Prompt pay, but I believe that they all require a work permit to setup. Can check if anything changed recently. Google pay launched here a couple of years ago so should work fine.
@@thebangkokguide thanks for the info 👍
Is Line safe to use ? And does it cost any money? Ect. Also what are the clothes selection like in Bangkok?
Yeah, Line was actually initially developed in South Korea and is popular in much of East Asia. It's free to download and use. Clothes selection is good. You can get cheap clothes at markets and certain malls like Platinum, and you can get name brand clothes at any mall, which are similar to any western country!
@@thebangkokguide Do they sell any luxury leather garments and accessories in shops? I love stylish clothing.
@@stevecarpenter9931 yeah there are plenty of leather shops, although Thailand is definitely more famous for its silk!
@@thebangkokguide any chance of doing a short video on the shops please.
@@stevecarpenter9931 sure. I planned to do a shopping video later and shall add it!
Is Whatsapp used in Thailand. I also can't register my Australian mobile number for MUVMI ?
Whatsapp is used in Thailand, but it is not too common. You may need a Thai number to register. I would recommend getting a Thai sim card as soon as you arrive, as they are very inexpensive and easy to buy! I will make a video about what you need to do the first day you arrive soon!
@@thebangkokguide thanks Cal I usually buy an e-sim before I leave home, thanks for the info 👍
I am planning to get wise digital card. Does thailand accpet google pay ?
Yes, many places in Thailand will accept it!
Withdrawl money with less fees?
I don't understand.
Translator online / of line app? thai - english
I normally use Google Translate. It’s very effective. I should include it. Thanks for the input!
