Best Time To Visit Bangkok

The best time to visit Bangkok is during its cool season when you can avoid hot, humid temperatures. The cool season is from November to February and is when you’ll see many tourists. December and January are even busier with Christmas and New Year celebrations. Avoid Bangkok during the wet monsoon season, from May to October. Although this might be a good time to pick up a hotel bargain too. If you have access to a swimming pool onsite, the humidity and heat will be more bearable.
