Cabs to and from Ban Chang

[teelack 9,650]

Hi there. I was wondering if anyone had taken a taxi to or from Ban Chang and if so what companies and at what price please?

I would email Mr T mr_ttaxi@hotmail.com and see what the price is you may also be able to get a price to rent the car and driver for the day.

Mr. T will supply a car and driver for THB250 an hour to go wherever you desire. I hired one for 4 hours for Nong Nooch and the Big Buddha, etc.

 

I presume you can negotiate waiting time less than that. How far in hours is Ban Chang? One each way?

 

Of course given his 20 hour response time you might want to call (that's always fun) or easier drop into the "office" on Soi Diana. There is a girl there that has pretty good English. For some reason when you call it ain't her that answers the phone.

Additionally, Ban Chang is on the Rayong bus route and you could catch the Rayong bus on Sukhomvit and get there for 50 baht, it might take an hour, but you would get there, and then get the bus back, the buses stop in the middle of the town and the bars are just a short walk

80% of posts by davesiam are posts for go taxi, such a coincidence.

Hmmm. That's a really good deal. Now, if I said I want a driver and car for 3 hours (750baht), that would cover the time for him to drive me to the airport and return...hehe.

 

I suspect he'd say "no airport".

Not only would he, he did when I asked. They expect in that 3 hours a bit of doing nothing vs. driving a solid 3 hours in which case gas would be an issue and distance could exceed Bangkok and back.

 

For an hour or two you can see a lot. In four we did Nong Nooch, Buddha Hill , Big Buddha mountain and a bit of poking around, well worth the $33.

The airport isn't in Bangkok, it's in Samutprakarn.

Mr. Dream will take you, can't remember the price. Also you might consider going with the Drunken Dunk they make runs every week or so.

Rick, would you mind pointing out exactly where his office is using www.pattayaphotoguide.com ? I'm tired of using the tourist stands and then having to wait around an hour for the car to show up.

This may be of use to those planning larger group trips.

I THINK the 15 seater is 1800 baht return so good value if (say) 10 people going.

 

Best thing is there is no waiting time fee on top. Drinks vouchers from certain bars also reduce the total "cost" IF you choose to use them.
