Answer

• By Tuk-Tuk: Easily available throughout the city; negotiate the fare before starting the ride.

• By Songthaew: A cost-effective option; just tell the driver 'Railway Station' and pay around 40-60 THB.

• By Taxi: Direct and comfortable, but more expensive; negotiate the fare or use the meter.

• Walking: If you're nearby, it's a pleasant 20-30 minute walk through the local area.

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. Prices and fares change, so request the current amount before committing.
