Blue Muton Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 Hi, I have visitors from the UK next month and we want to spend a few days in and around CM. They want to fly as it's an all day drive from my home. I don't fancy hiring a car so we'll need to hire a minibus & driver. Can any of you locals recommend someone reliable please? They don't have to speak English as my wife speaks decent Thai (as she is Thai). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ramrod711 Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 A decent safe minibus driver? Shouldn't this be in Pub? If he finds one, it should be in Ripley's believe it or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Muton Posted April 17, 2016 Author Share Posted April 17, 2016 I would highly recommend my former driver who now drives a minibus for rent Good guy speak English, new minibus Call Papa 0801253708 Thanks for the recommendation. We called this guy and booked him. For anyone else looking, we hired them for three days, travelling around the CM district. On the first day we had "Papa" then one of his brothers. Both of them were very pleasant and more importantly both were good drivers, keeping at appropriate speeds and distances and not reacting to any bad driving by others. Cost was 1,800 THB / day plus diesel, which I thought was reasonable. Apparently they have twelve vans driven by two generations of their family. Both of the vans that we traveled in were clean, looked new and seemed well maintained. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
