Hey beloved wanderlusters,
Never have I thought to be able to countdown 2020 in another country. It's so last minute. All bookings were done at such a peak season so it's not the best price but we had to do it on a tight budget as we aren't supposed to go for any more trips after Turkey. This is because our new home is completing real soon. The rapid progress is way ahead of time.
This is hubby's first time to Bangkok but certainly not my first so I strive to be a good tour guide for him. This entire trip is supposedly free and easy so the itinerary below is only a guideline.

RM19.15 DTAC 4G 8 days unlimited data sim card can be bought at KLOOK and pick up at airport
BTS, MRT, tuk tuk, taxi and boat rides
We did not buy rabbit card because we are not frequent user. The counter said some initial fees are not refundable. Do allocate at least RM100 per person for transportation as taxi and tuk tuk can be quite expensive. There is no express train from Don Mueang airport to city center so you have to take a cab.
Attraction Fees
KLOOK Floating market day tour (Century Mall departure) = RM124.35 per pax
Grand Palace = THB500
Wat Arun = THB50
Grand total cost would be approx RM1600 per person
