Its actually SGD$1 to 21.315 Baht now.

SG should have a better rate now. Advisable to change before coming over. Check out those money changers in Golden Mile.

Anyway, unless you are changing a couple of hundred thousands SGD dollars to Thai Baht, you will feel a difference but if you are only change a couple of thousands, the difference is hardly noteable.

You are advise to change some before coming as you will need it for the Taxi fare to town which will be between 200 to 500 baht depending where your hotel is located.

If you need to change money in BKK, go to the reputable ones like the banks. The banks has outlets in various part of the city to cater for Faraks (Foreigners). They are open up till 2100hrs (BKK time). The time here is 1 hour behind SG time.

Hope that helps.

check the few money changers' rates at people's park. they're all quite competitive.

for vietnam, change USD. they accept USD. if you change to Viet Dong, might have problems with loose change...
