To my knowledge, the only direct bus is the Yellow Bus, departing from Pattaya Bus Station, North Road.

Website:  iloveyellowbus.com  Advance booking strongly advised.

I find the site Rome2Rio invaluable for travel between two places in Thailand

^{Many options beyond just Yellow Bus.}

^{Can get at main station on North Pattaya. Another on Sukhumvit past North Pattaya on East side. Also on 3rd Rd. just north of Central.}

^{However, I have been up there during Songkran and it is the same. Hard to avoid.}

Can you name the bus company(ies) ?

Hi

 

My girlfriend is from there ( Surin ), she uses Nakhonchai Air.. for home visits.

 

She says it is OK.

 

I have also used it myself and yes it is OK.

Just hate long distance bus travel

 

Journey time is between 8 to 9  hours.

 

Website for you

I think you might have left your escape too late, I drove from BKK to Phetchabun this morning and traffic to Saraburi already crazy.

Majority of them hang a right there for Korat / Surin / Buriram.

Rather you than me getting on a bus this time of year - good luck!

Highways 331, 304 and 314 probably not quite so bad yet. You may have 24 - 36 hrs. of relatively free-flowing traffic, measured from now.

[uhuh]

Sorry if too late

 

Best bus NakhonchaiAir, tel 1624 (English spoken), can book over the phone and pay at 7/11

Their station is at the intersection of Sukhumvit and Pattaya Klang, next to Sukhumvit Soi 59 

It takes 9 hours in normal traffic
