If you know your way around Pattaya, taxi works fine. If not check out the Meeting Section and look for reliable car and driver. Many services are listed. I've used Alex service many times and have been satisfied. Other who have used him were not satisfied. Check out the reviews and make your own decision.

Yes there will be hundreds of drivers available.

 

If it is your first time you will be a bit overwhelmed and intimidated as you enter the arrival area and you will do well to have a driver waiting for you. It only costs $5-10 more for this service and you are more likely to get a driver that speaks decent english. The drivers will be in a great mass on the right before the Airport exit and they will have signs with names on them. "Touts" will attempt to intercept you along the way so tell them "my ow!" (not want) as you look for your driver. Be sure to get some baht on the left side before looking for your driver.

 

Follow BigDUSA's advice to get a reliable driver.

 

In time you will learn where to negotiate with a freelance driver, or to take the bus if you arrive during day hours.

 

If you are arriving with friends, you might want to share the cost of the magic bus service operated by the Classroom Go-go. This way you will have a driver with a mini van and two BGs and a cooler of drinks waiting on you.
