Flying from Johannesburg to Bangkok: FAQs

What food is Bangkok known for?

Visitors will discover that Thai dishes are known for packing plenty of flavour. Som Tum (a papaya salad) is a mouth-watering combination of sweet, sour and salty, while Tom Yum Goong is a delicious hot and sour prawn soup. Pad Thai (fried noodles), massaman curry and Khao Niew Mamuang (mango with sticky rice) are also dishes that simply have to be sampled.

Is Bangkok easy to get around?

A sprawling city with so much to explore, there are plenty of options when it comes to transport. Tuk Tuks (motorised rickshaws) are popular for short journeys, while taxis are readily available. The BTS Skytrain covers almost all of the central city, with the Bangkok MRT covering the northern section. Canal boats are a great way to explore attractions slightly further afield.
