Bangkok to Pattaya Destination Reviews

KK
Very easy to use application
Bangkok to Pattaya, Bus Express, Roong Reuang Coach (รถรุ่งเรือง), Jan 13, 2026
KT
Not clear enough guidance on where to go and what to do first once arrived at the departure station. Very unfriendly and reluctant bus ticket handler. Worst experience so far in Thailand. Almost missed my bus even though we arrived whole 30min before the time.

I booked this trip because it was saying that this was the fastest one. Result ? The bus waited for it to be full and we left 1h30 after the scheduled time and then stopped maybe 4-5 times along the way. So I paid more than the regular price to get late. I don't recommend this company at all.
