So, after getting SIM card at the airport, the first thing we searched was route to the Hostel. Distance was around 15 kilometers and as per :
Grab Cab service: charges were 472 Bhat. Grab cab is a app, which we normally installed before leaving for Bangkok. Its like #Ola and #Uber in India.
Google Map: We also found a mixed route of Metro Airport link and bus service. Metro link is just like Delhi Metro Airport link. The way its connects to the main route of Metro in delhi at New Delhi Metro station, similarly Bangkok Airport link connects at “Phaya Thai” Metro station.
Metro Station at Bangkok Airport: its at the basement of the same airport, we followed the signboards and reached at the metro station, there was no ticket counter, only ticket vending machines. We paid 45 Bhat for each of us boarded the metro.
You can also enjoy the view from the metro window, in the episode 2 of Thailand series titled as “Bangkok Local Transportation System, Metro Airport Link, Local Buses and Google Problem, Cab Service”.
We got down at “Phaya Thai” metro station and reached at the bus stop, under the metro station itself. Our bus number was 45, we kept waiting for 20-30 minutes, then we saw bus number 45 coming. But it raced away leaving us heart broken. It was very surprising why didn’t the bus stop here.
Some more buses like Bus number 203, 501 and few more, supposed to stop at this bus stop, but all of them ran away.
This made us realize, is this really a us stop?
We were standing at the wrong place. A local person said ‘ bus stop is few meters ahead, when we enquired.
We reached at the bus stop and re-confirmed from passengers sitting there. We were at the right place finally.
But the buses, which we were looking for were not stopping here too. Whats Wrong?
We realized one thing that #googlemaps is misguiding us about the bus numbers and bus stops.
I started asking from each bus conductor, about the bus taking us to the address written on the “Hotel Booking” printout we carried from india.
This also didn’t help.
At the end, we booked a Yellow-Green Taxi in 200 Bhat which took us to our hostel location with lots of fun.
Taxi driver name was the sound of Frog, which they make while doing “Boom Boom”.
Don’t you want to know, see episode 2 and episode 3 of “Thailand Series”.
His entertaining interaction was covered in both the episodes. I am sure you all will like that.
About, which hostel we booked where we paid only INR 140 per night per person, that too close to “khaosan Main Street”. Watch episode number 3 of Thailand Series with me .. Bole to Camping Traveller India.
