If you're travelling on a budget, you should be able to get by on around 650.00 a day anywhere in Thailand. Visitors staying in comfortable hotels and eating at restaurants should budget on around 750.00-1250.00 a day outside Bangkok and around double this amount when in the capital. If money is no object, you can spend to your heart's content in Bangkok, since the capital has several of the world's most sumptuous hotels. Your spending levels will be curtailed by the scarcity of luxury accommodation and quality restaurants when you get off the beaten track.

Tipping is not customary in Thailand, although Thais are getting used to the idea of it in upmarket hotels.
