Best times

November to February

Bangkok has a true tropical climate. Therefore, the city will often be hot, humid, and rainy. But those three variables will be less severe in the mid November to February period than you would experience in Bangkok's "least desirable times" period.

Least desirable times

May to October

Be prepared for heavy rains (including monsoons), sweltering temperatures, and energy-zapping humidity up until about mid October.

World's #1

Bangkok has the dubious distinction of being the hottest big city on earth.
