scorecard Posted December 16, 2006 Share Posted December 16, 2006 Appreciate advice from members on alternative taxi / car services from Bangkok condo to South Pattaya (early afternoon 24th Dec). Two Thai adults and small daughter, plus two or three small luggages. Son has just checked several services and got prices of 1,500 to 2,000Baht. Any suggestions on better price much appreciated. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diablo Bob Posted December 16, 2006 Share Posted December 16, 2006 Have you considered the train? 35 Baht per person (Adult) from Hualapong to Pattaya. Leaves at around 7am arriving 10:30am from Pattaya the train leaves around 2pm arriving in BKK at 5:30pm. If you don't have a lot of luggage it's the way to go.

Thanks. I've never paid more than 1,400 baht (including tolls) for a taxi from Bangkok to Pattaya. I've heard if you negotiate you can get it down to as low as 1000...at that price you may have to pay tolls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jingthing Posted December 16, 2006 Share Posted December 16, 2006 If you run into any taxi meter and you like the driver, negotiate. Getting 1200 plus tolls should be easy to get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neeranam Posted December 16, 2006 Share Posted December 16, 2006 (edited) last year I paid 800 baht from Central Bang Na. Edited December 16, 2006 by Neeranam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Coder Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 Any suggestions on better price much appreciated. Most Thai's would go to Ekkamai station and take the air conditioned bus for 120 baht a person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neeranam Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 Most Thai's would go to Ekkamai station and take the air conditioned bus for 120 baht a person. Not if there were 4 of them with bags. Many would take their own car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the OP scenario the bus (about 500 baht for 4) would be a fraction of a taxi fare and the "two or three small luggages" mentioned does not sound like it would be an issue anywhere along the way.

Surely 2 Thai adults should be able to suss it out for themselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
