Change money, buy SIM card and go to town
Of course you want to know where you can change money, buy a SIM card and how to travel to the city by train or taxi. In this video you can see a tour of Bangkok's main airport. Exchanging money at the airport is expensive, it is better to change some for the first day or the taxi and exchange the rest in the city. Another alternative is to go to the bottom floor of the airport (B floor) where you get more, but according to those in the know you get the best rate in town. If you exchange 1000 euros, you save 70 euros by going to Superrich in the city. There are 3 transport options to the city, train, taxi and bus.
