Ekkamai to Pattaya, Bus Express, Roong Reuang Coach (รถรุ่งเรือง), Dec 14, 2025
MS
The driver didn’t speak any English, nor did he try to communicate. His driving was not that good or felt comfortable, we didn’t keep the time because he didn’t start driving before 30 minutes after we were supposed to start. Suddenly he stopped along the road in Pattaya, 20-30 minutes before the last stop (I booked all the way to the pier) and yelled that that was the last stop. Not willing to hear that multiple of us booked all the way. Bad experience.

It 's easy, booking bus tickets over 12Go. Easy going to Ekkamai bus station. I could change the voucher from "Roong Reuang Coach" very fast at both bus stations . Driving to Pattaya and back to Bangkok was faster than estimated. From Pattaya Northern Bus Terminal i walked in 55minutes to the " Sanctuary of Truth. Amazing place. :-) Because i arrived back earlier at the bus station Pattaya , i applied for an earlier bus. 2pm instead 4pm. I only paid 50.00 THB for changing. Very cool in both busses. Jacket is necessary. I highly recommend using 12Go and Roong Reuang Coach.

Driver was on time. And helpful with luggage. The ride was comfortable and we arrived at our destination in good time. I highly recommend Khamkhun Tour and Travel. This was our second time using this service. We will use them again for our travel needs.

Watch the luggage scam! They'll try make you pay an extra 20 BHT if you have a large bag, which is the case for most of the customers. The queuing process is terrible. There's no order!
