BKK airport to Pattaya - Bolt, Grab, airport taxi or hotel pick up?

[dastott]

Hello. I have been happily using the Bolt taxi app in Phuket but will be travelling from Bangkok (BKK) airport to Pattaya. Do Bolt or Grab drivers do this route? If not, how much should I be paying for an airport taxi or hotel transfer to Jomtien? Any recent info much appreciated. Cheers.

 Tom Taxi is 1000 baht, safe and reliable.

 

Although I would take the "Jomtien Bus"  for 130 baht.

 

Then for 10 baht you can hop on a baht bus to your hotel or condo.  Or take a Bolt from the bus stop for around 50 baht. Or perhaps walk depending where you are staying.

 

Another option is the Bell Bus

I think so but have never done so.

Thank you. I have a bike box with me which makes taking public transport a hassle. I remember taking the Bell Bus  back in 2007, my last visit to Jomtien. Will contact Tom Taxi. Thanks again.

Have used both BOLT & GRAB from BKK to Jomtien. Pick up location can be a problem unless you speak enough Thai. Some of the drivers speak decent enough English. If you go to the Public Taxi stand they will try to get B2000 and may settle for B1500. That Tom Taxi sounds like the best and cheapest option. Never tried but good info.

During my stay in Thailand, used Mr T dozens of time. Was very reliable.

Thank you all. Ended up booking Tom Taxi as I can imagine it's tricky for Grab or Bolt drivers to find passengers in the airport scrum.  My Thai is not enough to explain locations yet sadly.

Agree 

I've been using MrT for over a decade. 

No big issues to discuss, very pleased.

I use Nam’s taxi. All lady drivers. Reliable for pickup and transport to Pattaya.

I use these guys wherever I am going in Thailand,  be it Koh Chang, Airport to hotel in Bangkok or whatever.

 

Fully insured 4X4 s brand new cars, English spoken, spotless cars!

 

A little bit more expensive, but worth it.

 

Airport to Pattaya is 1600/1700 Baht.

I've always used Mr. T.

Decided to give Nam's taxi a spin next time.

Glad to hear both survived the recession.
