what about transport there ?

Loi Krathong seems awesome, feel like planning for a trip there

In the old city, almost everything is within walking distance. Otherwise still got song thaew and tuk tuk (average 60-100 bahts) point to point. Rent motorbike at 200 bahts per day also good. Rent car drive around also not that expensive (average daily rental $40 to $50 excl petrol)

More spotcheck is like there is police around to check ? Like catching people without helmet or checking for license ?

If anyone planning to visit CM for loy learning, suggest to book air ticket asap because by Oct most likely full flight or can cost as much as $200-$400 one way. Also tour agency most likely tour full
