Can anyone recommend the easiest way to get to Central Westgate, Nontaburi, from Ekamai?

How far is Westgate from the Nontaburi Express Boat Pier?

Thanks for any useful information; much appreciated

It is linked to the MRTA Purple Line, Talad Bang Yai station, PP2.

Thanks so much. Can we get to Westgate from the Chao Phraya Boat Pier?

IF you are in for some interesting diversion with local Thai songhthaews and dont mind changing a few times, then yes, you can connect from the pier-first take small ferry across, then walk some further, old dilapidated bus-1002/3 or maybe now songhthaew toward bangBuaThong and change-the bus passes the purple line, no idea how stations are located. If you do not speekee the Thai and are the tipical confused farang, it will take maybe only 2 hrs. from NTB (called Tha Nam by all Thai).

ALL those giant shop-centres look very much the same with very much the same shops, if you stay at Ekamai you might as well go to Eastgate-oh no, the one around IKEA along BangnatTrat. THere are however also an original BigC and a converted Carrefour across WG and the most hideous of all-the first in the area BigKings (from the gone bust Merry KIngs), which was then changed into the usual small vendor-stalls later on, with many a Burmese among them.

How long you stay in BKK? Still not found out that taximeters can do all that for you much easier, comfy too? I guess its only about 12-14 kms away from NTB. BMTA AC-old blue/cream buses based in BBTong-depot serve it too-lines 134(MOchit) and 516.
