I would agree with all of those except the cash one. Best option is to take cash in your own dollars/pounds/euros and then change then to Bhat as needed as the rates will be much better than you get at home or from an ATM. Just make sure your notes/bills are in perfect condition as any which are damaged, folded or marked may not be accepted.

Wise (TransferWise) is another great option. Great exchange rates and also an ATM card. I used take many vacations to Thailand and now retired and transfer money on Wise as bank to bank exchange rates are the worst which includes using my USA bank ATM card. Learned from years of mistakes.

1:47 "In general you can break Thailand up into two parts, the North and the South." Ehhh... I suppose for tourism purposes you can. But really Thailand has four regions at minimum, Central, South, North, and Northeast, all Thai, but each with its own dialect and local culture. The Northeast (Isan) region in particular is unique. While tourists are unlikely to visit there, many people who work in the tourist industry in other regions come from there, so you'll likely meet some of them in your travels.

This gentleman is giving very good advice and I’m asking everyone to listen to him and as a person who has been living here for 10 years please respect the culture, custom and traditions here do not speak negative of the monarchy the royal family the king do not step on the paper money here the currency because it has the face of the king on it even the coins have a drops don’t put your foot on it. Let it roll until it stop or try to catch your hand, you can get up to 25 years in prison for disrespecting the king the world, family paper currency so be very careful here don’t speak politics here anything that’s negative about the royal family or the king. It will cost you dearly. You can be deported after serving prison time. Do not get into argument with the Thai people here do not get into a fight because you’re the one that gonna be at fault even if the person was at fault you would be blame why because you are a guest here you are a foreigner here and that’s the way you gonna be treated if you’re winning, find a reputable rental place be very very careful advise not to drive here if you don’t have the experience of living here because is very dangerous here especially for foreigners number one cause of death for foreigners in Thailand is auto accidents motorcycle accidents they have laws here, but not obey them pertaining to the road rules and regulations of driving and riding motorcycles so be very very very careful here I don’t Drive or ride the motorcycle if you do not take the skytrain subway take the bus if you can be sure to check where you’re going and the taxi be sure they turn on that meter if they give an excuse get out of the cab do let them take you alone The city or where you have to go without turning on that meter Thailand is a beautiful country. People are beautiful. Yes this gentleman that giving very good advice and I do say please listen to him. Have a wonderful time here and enjoy yourself and be alert. Be safe and be careful. Thank you.
