Bangkok to Ayutthaya Destination Reviews

LD
The return trip was disappointing. I purchased a ticket in the 2nd class AC car but when boarding the train, they made everyone go onto the 3rd class car and remain standing for most of the trip. This was very unexpected. I think I should be refunded the difference. What happened? Why was I not allowed to sit in the seat I purchased? I’ve never had this happen on a train before.

It was easy to purchase the train tickets to Ayutthaya. Once i paid for them, I immediately received an email confirmation with the e-ticket, which i used on my phone. It was very convenient.

Missed our train due to traffic. Nobodys fault other than our own. Thankfully managed to catch the next train which left 15 minutes after. Only 40tbh per person 3rd class. Therefore it is much cheaper to buy directly from the station

To tell the truth we thought it was going to be worse than it actually was. Third class with fans for 13 hours is not the most comfortable, but as the stops went by the seats were freed up allowing us to lie down and get some sleep.

How to get from Bangkok to Ayutthaya by Train

Taking a train to get from Bangkok to Ayutthaya is a safe, fast, and scenic option to travel the country. On certain routes, there are multiple train departures per day every 10 to 15 minutes. This is typical for intercity travel, while for long distance train routes there are fewer scheduled departures – plan ahead to choose the one that fits your itinerary best.

For long distance train journeys, we recommend reserving your tickets at least a few days ahead of your travel date. Buying train tickets via our online booking system will allow you to choose and reserve the best Bangkok to Ayutthaya tickets.

Buying your tickets online will help you secure the trip on the selected date and avoid queuing at the station.. When travelling on weekends and holidays it is recommended to reserve tickets much earlier due to a much higher demand. During high season, train tickets sell out quickly – do book as early as you can.

How long does it take to get from Bangkok to Ayutthaya by Train?

Travel time from Bangkok to Ayutthaya is estimated to be about 44m. Trains ensure the fastest time to travel by land. As normally there is no congestion, the speed of travel is more or less constant and stops at train stations are rather short, train is almost always one of the quickest and safest ways to get from Bangkok and Ayutthaya.

The most important thing that may affect train travel time is the type of train. Ordinary trains travel at a speed of about 40 mph or 65 km/h to 65 mph or 105 km/h. Some intercity trains with shorter distances between stations run slower than 40 mph. Even with these low speeds, it can still be faster than commuting by car, bus or taxi.

The speed of express trains can reach up to 100 mph or 160 km/h. Modern high-speed trains can run at speeds exceeding 250 mph or 400 km/h.

These speeds of travel together with relatively short stops between stations can greatly shorten the duration of your trip.

Premium or luxury trains and coaches have a higher ticket price but are equipped with air-conditioning, toilets, and large soft seats with sufficient legroom to make train rides comfortable.

Best-Rated Companies for this Route

Unlike buses or taxis which have numerous companies offering their services, train service is usually offered by just one major company in each country. As railway service requires a large amount of infrastructure, most railway companies are government-owned and are a part of the national transport system.

One of the best advantages of travelling by train is that railway stations are often conveniently located within or very near major cities and urban areas. Immediately on arrival to their destination, travellers find themselves in close proximity to important facilities like hotels, supermarkets, and hospitals.

If you travel with a lot of bags and luggage, trains are your best option. Luggage weight limits on trains are rather flexible and allow you to carry multiple bags with you.

Special or luxury trains feature sufficient legroom which allows you to stretch your legs and relax. In comfort and space these train seats can be compared to business class airplane seats.

Similar to buses, trains can provide a variety of amenities to make your travel more comfortable and enjoyable. Modern trains have WIFI service, a snack counter and a drinking bar. Onboard toilets can be a life saver for travellers with queasy stomachs.

Lastly, unlike buses and other overland means of transport, trains are very rarely involved in accidents.
