Bus from Chiang Rai.

[Exsexyman]

My son is getting the overnight bus from Chiang Rai to Pattaya, due in at 09-00 AM. Could someone tell which bus station in Pattaya it will arrive in. Many thanks in advance.

Hmm.

If he comes with Nakhonchai Air (?) see this older thread:

Thats the stop (not really a big station) opposite the junction of Central and Sukhumvit.

Buses seem to go on to Rayong, so just a "stop".

As far as I recall the Nakhon Chai Air bus arrives about 6 AM. It's the best one anyway!

4 overnight routes in different classes. One (Silver class) arrives probably at 9h in Pattaya (10:08 in Rayong).

Okay, but the silver service has about 15 stops, whereas the one I mentioned has about 4 (from your link). But, thank you anyway.

Up to the customer, at the end of the day. Who knows, maybe the kid will meet somebody on one of these stops, who will become the love of his life.
