Ekkamai to Pran Buri Destination Reviews

MT
Considering everything in general, we did enjoyed the train ride. Thanks to the slight rain, the temperature is nice even without the AC. Toilets are clean enough. It’s safe. Not the most comfortable seats to sleep, of course but worth the money for class C. Snacks sellers are every 2 mins away. Might need to take the powerbank since there is no plug in accessible. Tickets are only 174baht per seat at the station and we got tickets for 2 seats for each person.

It'll take at least an hour or so longer than stated and make some stops for additional pick ups and drop offs but it was a comfortable oversized van. Good price and easy to book online. The driver dropped me off directly at my hotel.

We book for 12.40pm but arrive around 11.30 to be safe. They put us on 11.40 bus instead. Very easy. Friendly and helpful people.

I booked the minibus for 8.50, I arrive 30 minutes before and I find out that it is full and they put us on the next minibus, dirty, dilapidated. No warning of time change

The bus was comfortable and with air condition. 20 minutes break in between. The arrival was 1,5 hours later and the bus stop in Prachuap Khiri Khan is not central! Also no taxi app is working there..

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 Prachuap Khiri Khan, 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.
