Buses:

There are four types of public bus in Bangkok with a different range of fares, depending on the type of the bus.

1) The ordinary buses :
	- The red-stripe buses, 7 baht (whole route)
	- The blue-stripe buses, 8.50 baht (whole route)
*2) The air-con buses* : the normal blue buses and the Euro buses:
	- The air-con blue buses, 12-20 baht (depending on the distance)
	- Three types of Euro buses the light blue colour, the orange color, and the white colors, 12-24 baht (depending on the distance)
3) The microbuses
	T he microbuses, charging a flat rate of 25 baht, is the most favoured as it ceases taking up passengers once every seat is filled. During rush hour, however, it is rather difficult to get on a microbus unless you take it at or near its terminals.
4) The green minibuses
	The fare of the green minibuses is 7 baht for the whole route. A lthough traveling by bus is the cheapest, you should be careful with your belongings while riding, especially on a crowded ordinary bus. I f you plan to tour Bangkok by bus, a free copy of which can be obtained from the TAT counter at the airport or from your hotel.
