The best way to travel short distances in Bangkok is undoubtedly the motorbike taxi. I appreciate that many people will dismiss the idea as a result of safety concerns, and I would never ride pillion on any sort of major thoroughfare. But the two-wheeled form of transport is perfect for weaving through the congestion in small sois and getting to your destination in reasonable time.
Used intelligently, the combination of BTS, MRT, river or canal boat, and the squad of motorbike taxis congregating around every station exit and pier actually make door-to-door travel around Bangkok much more convenient than other apparently more advanced big cities around Asia.
