Answer

One great way to enhance your experience is to familiarize yourself with the local transport schedules and routes. This way, you can plan your day around your travel times.

• Consider downloading a local transport app as they often provide real-time updates on bus arrivals and any service changes. It can really save you time and hassle.

• Engaging in conversations with the locals or fellow travellers while on public transport can also lead to discovering hidden gems in the city.

Practical Chiang Mai planning note: Songthaews may operate as shared transport or as a negotiated private trip. Agree on the destination and fare before departure when the route is not obvious.
