So my request is rather specific to my small vacation over the new years break but any general input would be appreciated.

I live in Nonthaburi and will be visiting Krabi to do some diving between the 28th and the 1st, I need to be back in the classroom the morning of the 2nd.

I have a cheap way down there, a large group of friends are splitting a private van, however only a few of us are returning on the 1st. My questions is, does anyone know of a clever and inexpensive way to get from Krabi to Victory Monument? Flights are very expensive since it's peak season, and the VIP busses are all booked up, as are the trains. I'm thinking of splitting a taxi with a few buddies but it will still probably run us each around 2000-2500 baht. Any Ideas?

Thanks everyone.

Krabi to Bangkok by taxi for 2,000 baht each for how many people? 8-10?

Its over 900 kms and at least 12 hour dirve and than the taxi needs to get back to Krabi; suggest u book ur flight NOW on air asia

Have you checked out the train ?

Try n get a deal done with the driver that's taking you their ... he come back for you or stay the holiday time with you ...

cancel the van and hire one instead , hire a driver too if need be ..

Theres baht to be made , im sure someone will take care you ..

good luck
