The experience
The transfer meets you at one of four pier pickup points (Ao Prao, Banphe Municipality, Nuanthip or Sribanphe) the moment you arrive from the island. You choose your destination at booking: Bangkok city center takes roughly two and a half to three and a half hours by road, while the airports run two to two and a half hours (Don Mueang) or two to three hours (Suvarnabhumi). Pattaya is the shortest inland route. The driver speaks Thai and basic English through a translation app, and the vehicle is air-conditioned throughout.
Sedan seats three passengers with two bags; MPV holds four passengers and four bags; van accommodates up to ten passengers with nine bags. Fuel and parking are included in the fare. The service runs twenty-four hours, so whether your ferry lands at dawn or late evening, a car is available. If any mechanical issue occurs during the drive, the operator arranges a replacement vehicle at no extra cost to you.
Large items like surfboards, skis, wheelchairs and golf bags cannot travel in these vehicles, and pets are not accommodated. Traffic conditions on the Bangkok routes vary by time of day and season, so the quoted drive times are estimates. Your driver will keep you informed of delays as they occur.
