    Getting TO/AROUND: Bangkok is an insanly busy city. One of the easiest ways to get around is with the tuk tuk which is pretty much a motorcycle with three wheels and a bench in back. The vehicle is covered so if you're sitting high in the back it's beyond scary since the drivers barely obey traffic rules (if Bangkok has any). You have to be very specific about where you want to go because like many tourist traps in Thailand you'll soon be brought to a suit or jewelry shop where you're pressured into buying something. Also, a necessity in Thailand....always make deals and set the price of the taxi, tuk tuck, etc. before the vehicle leaves!
