Need A Mini-bus In Bangkok (mid Dec 05)

[Ramcem]

I will be going to Bangkok in mid-December. However, I will be spending a day going to neigbouring towns such as Chachoengsao and Chonburi.

We are in a group of 9 people so the standard taxi is a bit small. Though the train goes to Chaochoengsao directly, it doesn't stop by Chonburi to the place we want to visit.

So I was thinking of renting a mini-bus to sit in 9 people for a day. It would be better if the driver speaks English.

If anyone of you has any information, please PM me.

Thanks in advance.

Any hotel front desk or travel service should be able to provide. They are very common transport here. If your plans are firm you can probably find some with a Google search that you could book.

Some of the smaller travel agencies may be able to set you up with a van. The van you want is the same type of van that takes tourists on tours. The travel agents will have the telephone numbers and contacts for the transportation companies.

You might try these numbers. I used the service a couple years ago.

Hi , you can also contact 01-8154803 , they offer a new Toyota Commuter incl english speaking driver .

Recently I paid THB 1,800.- for a day , diesel ,Tollway,etc extra .

The Van comes with TV/DVD.

If you book a Van around the corner the price for old Toyota Commuter's are THB 1,500.- , but these drivers do normally not speak englisch.

New Toyota Commuter are very seldom at these locations .

No idea what travel agents are charging .
