How
To Get Here Getting
to Pattaya is very, very easy due to it's close
proximity to Bangkok. 99% of visitors, regardless
of where you are travelling from in Thailand, will
pass through Bangkok en route to Pattaya.
From
Bangkok...
Bus
From the Eastern
Bus Terminal ("Eckemai"), buses leave
every 30min for Pattaya,
the last one departing
at 10.00pm. The journey takes a little under three
hours.
Train
A nice journey taking just over 3 hours. Leaving
once a day from Bangkok's main Hua Lamphong Station
at 7.00am, arriving at Pattaya station just after
10.30am.
Taxi
The fastest, but most expensive way to
get to Pattaya!
From any where in Bangkok, taxi drivers will be
able to get you here in about 90 mins for anywhere
between 2,000-3,000 Th.Baht, all depending on your
bargaining skills!
If
you can find a Thai speaker to do the bargaining
for you, it would be a lot better and certainly
cheaper!
Air
On the outskirts
of Pattaya is the local airport (U-Tapao) which
has daily connecting flights with Samui and Pattaya
as well an international links with Singapore and
Siem Reap in Cambodia.
