Where streets bustle, spices simmer and scooters buzz, Bangkok is a feast for the senses. Book your flights from Adelaide to Bangkok and get caught up in the lively city. The best place to feel the energy and heat in Bangkok is at one of city’s many markets. Join the sea of people, haggle for a bargain and get swept up in the excitement of it all.

Start your market hopping at one of the city’s wet markets. Taking place on boats throughout Bangkok’s canals, these markets are a traditional way of selling fresh fruit, vegetables and flowers and offer a fascinating glimpse of local life. Opt for a tour of the wet markets to learn more about the tradition and how the markets operate.

If you still have more shopping energy left and it’s a weekend, head to the Chatuchak Weekend Market, the largest markets in Thailand. With over 8000 stalls sprawling across 35 acres, the markets sell everything and anything so you’re bound to find what you’re looking for and at a great price. Browse the weird and wacky food, pets and art on offer or pick up some unique clothes, accessories and books to take home with you.
