How far is it from Bangkok to Pattaya?

Answer 1

It is between 2 and 3 hour busride depending if you get an express or one that stops. and whether you are leaving from the airport or not. Pattaya is about 180km from the Airport. I've driven it once or twice, but the bus is the way to go, cheap, no stress, and the coaches are VERY nice compared to buses in most places in the world.


As a side note: I'm getting pretty tired of the nippleheads that have never been to Thailand always assuming that the sex trade is the only reason to go there. They should stay in their trailers and stick to watching Dr. Phil. Thailand has sooo much to offer. While Pattaya is a tourist attraction and the sex trade is proliferate there, it is a wicked party town too. The diving is phenomenal around there too, Koh Samet, Koh Pai, Koh Lam, Koh Samaesan, Koh Chuang all great dive spots. Gorgeous beaches everywhere like Ban Siracha, Jomthien, Samae San, Ban Phe, Ban Phak Klong all kinds of great places. There's a great zoo inland from Chonburi(can't remember the name). Museums to see, wats to visit, it's a tourist haven.

Answer 2

From the new airport to Pattaya is around 110Km and the trip can be made from 90 minutes to 2 hours depending on traffic. The cost can also vary from about B300 for a bus to B1500 for a private limo with the best rate being a metered taxi..

Answer 3

I did that trip in 2005 using the bus service in Bangkok. I think it took about 2 hours. Not a bad trip at all actually, I was quite shocked. I just looked it up and its about 150 km away from Bangkok.
