Pattaya to Bangkok Destination Reviews

Quick, easy, and convenient. Buses back to Bangkok run frequently - every hour?
Pattaya to Bangkok, Bus Express, Roong Reuang Coach (รถรุ่งเรือง), Oct 14, 2025
RM
it was unclear which desk to go to. After being in line for 10 min , I discovered that I should have gone to a different desk (check in). The bus was stuck in traffic for over an 1 and half. It was a long journey. Seats were comfortable and driver drove safely.

The driver made dozens of stops along the way, often just to ask people who were standing by the road if they want to join his shuttle. So the trip took forever. Then once we were on the highway, he spent the whole time talking on the phone while driving 130km/h.

The bus driver was unprofessional, rude, disruptive and basically concerned about his mental health. He was screaming and yelling at all the passengers and said no one is allowed to talk or use their cell phones. He personally yelled at me when I was talking to my girlfriend. I don’t appreciate this abuse and I think that he needs to get some immediate counseling.
