plan to go Ramayana water park on Sat and Kho Samet on Sun

[Erin7521]

Hello everyone，

Now we are in BKK and plan to go Ramayana water park and Samet on weekends。

This is schedule：go and stay in Pattaya on Friday evening，go water park on Saturday，after that we go Kho Samet on Saturday evening，Monday afternoon go back to BKK. Do you think its reasonable？

We hope to stay in hotel near the place where water park's shuttle bus pick up. And what hotel is close to Ban Phe Pier？

Thank you in advance for everyone：）

I think you will be too tired to get to Samed after a day at Ramayana. It would be at least 45 minutes to the Ban Phe pier from the park and you would have to coordinate to catch the ferry. Better to spend the nite anywhere on the mainland and go to island on Sunday...or better yet, choose one or the other as that's allot to squeeze into a couple days.

Thank you OMG for good idea of living in mainland

I wish you the best and hope you have a great weekend, just stating what everyone knows...travel etc on Thai holidays and extended weekends is always a problem.

Le Paillote guest house is a nice lower price if you want to stay near Ban Phe ferry.

They can park the car at one of the several private docks and take a speed boat to the island that will drop them on the beach in front of the hotel of their choice. Hope he has a booking, could be a busy weekend.

Samet will be mobbed and very noisy

Last slow boat to Samet will be about 7.30pm. After that you will need a speedboat around 1600 depending on what beach you are staying. As mentioned book a hotel before as it will be very busy!
