Is 5000 baht enough for 3 days? ›

Yes, 5000 baht can be enough for 3 days in Bangkok if you plan to eat street food and take taxis, and avoid any luxury activities. However, the amount you will need may depend on your specific itinerary, how much you plan to eat, and the distance of your taxi rides.

There's no possible way you could experience all the treasures of Bangkok in just a few days. At a minimum, you need between four to five days to explore this marvellous city. Not only are there so many things to do in the Thai capital, but the tropical heat and crowds of people can also easily wear you down.

If you are going to eat street food and either walk or catch local buses everywhere then 500 a day should be enough. If you're going to eat at fancy restaurants and hit the Go Go bars each night and party with new friends back in your room then 10,000 a day might not be enough.

Day and night, humidity is high, so it's best to pack loose clothing. Think short sleeved cotton t-shirts, comfortable skirts, and shorts. Women should opt for a long maxi dress and thin shawl for evenings, while men should keep a pair of linen trousers and a long-sleeved shirt handy to prevent pesky mosquito bites!

And If you're looking to stay in expensive resorts or hotels, eat mostly Western food or in tourist areas, drink a lot, and fly a lot, you should budget around $1,000- $1,050.

For the entirety of our 10 Day Thailand Trip 'Temples,Tripes & Tuk Tuks', we would recommend a budget of $200 - $500. Any travel budget will fluctuate between personalities, so ask yourself: "What type of traveller are you?" The Hippie brings about $200-$300 for the 10 days.

How much cash should I carry to Thailand? ›

According to Thailand's official rules, you can bring up to $20,000 USD or the currency equivalent into the country before you have to declare it to customs. If you're bringing Thai baht (THB) into the country rather than a foreign currency, the most you can carry with you is 500,000 THB.

Damnoen Saduak is the most popular of the Bangkok floating markets. The best way to experience the Damneon Saduak floating market is on a boat so you'll get to see all the different stalls and get immersed in the local culture.

Best Time to Visit Bangkok

Although this city is a perennial destination, the best time to explore Bangkok tourism is from November to February. Bangkok temperature during these months is cooler and less humid. Bangkok weather in the winter season is extremely pleasant.

How much Baht will depend on what EXACTLY you want to do. Then again, to plan your expenses so tightly, it's a bit unwise. Rule of thumb, for comfortable, luxurious and pleasant stay in Thailand, plan for around 5,000Baht/day.

If you're backpacking Thailand, plan to budget between 800-1,125 THB per day. This range gets you your own room (fan only) with a shared bathroom (or a dorm room on the lower end), food from the street stalls, a couple of drinks per day, a few tours here and there, and local transportation.

You may be staying in a cheap flop at 400 baht a night and have a small amount of money to spend or you may be in a luxurious hotel spending 6000 baht a night. For you perhaps from 500 baht a day to 5000 baht a day will be enough.

I'd say 5000 Baht for 4 days seems reasonable - you can definitely survive on 5000 Baht. If you want to eat good, chug a few overpriced drinks at Khaosan, take the cab without bargaining, shop a lot, then take 10000 - 12000 Baht with you.
