Bangkok to Pattaya Destination Reviews

MS
The driver was rude, telling me to get out of a minibus, even thought i bought a ticket to the last station. Never again with this driver. On the other hand people on a reception were helpful, that was good.

The van departed with 10-2 minute delay. When we were about to reach Pattaya, the driver told us to change vehicle as he was going to a different direction. My destination was "Bali Hai office".

the minibus is uncomfortable, there is little legroom, the backrest is not adjustable, it was 40 minutes late to the destination

Not sure if other companies are any better or worse, but this one turned out to be a mess. Even though we arrived earlier at the bus stop to show our pre-paid tickets and reserve our seats, the bus was already full and seats were given other people, they gave us tickets for the next one which departed 1.40h later than our bus was supposed to. The bus itself is comfortable and has running AC (that's why I'm giving this company three stars) The driver also dropped us at the wrong location, unlike the one indicated in the app as the last stop and told we could a take a cab from there to the center.

Train

Train is a often a great choice for long-haul travel especially if you opt for a night sleeper train with berths which will allow you to sleep all your journey through. To make the most of your train journey, choose the class of your ticket wisely.

Note that there are air-conditioned and fan-only carriages; private compartments for 2 or 4; hard and soft seats.
Though the upper class you get the smoother is your journey, often second class air-conditioned or fan-only sleepers are a good money saving alternative.

Van

Vans are a great alternative - or, in many cases - your only option - if you need to travel overland within one and the same province or neighbouring provinces or states. Vans ply the roads between Bangkok and Pattaya, too.

Things to remember: When travelling by van with huge luggage buying a separate seat for your suitcase or backpack is a good idea. Do not expect there is a roomy luggage compartment in a van - there is actually none and your fellow passengers are unlikely to appreciate your luggage stuck under their feet, alas.
