Express Bus from Pattaya direct to the tropical Koh Chang island.
Starting soon: a direct VIP bus connection from the bustling beach resort of Pattaya (พัทยา) to the tropical island of Koh chang (เกาะช้าง).
The most comfortable way for affordable travel between Koh Chang and Pattaya city: the brand new Pattaya City <-> Pattaya express Bus number ???, aka the Pattaya Burapha Bus service. This air conditioned VIP coach, will depart from the city of Pattaya and Koh Chang island every day for an as good as non-stop journey, following below time tables. The Koh Chang - Trat - Chantaburi - Pattaya City bus will only pick up passengers from the bus stations in Chantaburi and Trat, without making an actual stop at either of these bus terminals.
Our VIP tourist bus # ??? is the only full sized coach that can take up to 40 passengers all the way to the island of Ko Chang, practically non-stop from the exciting city of Pattaya. Other government and private bus operators usually start or stop at the pier at the mainland near Trat, unloading all passengers that are heading to Koh Chang, as well as their luggage, at the beginning of the pier in Laem Ngop. From there, those passengers are on their own to get all of their luggage to and from the ferries and up and down their small steep stairs and squeezing into the hot song teaw shared taxi's that have been waiting at the pier for more than an hour. Not so for our passengers: any Pattaya Burapha air conditioned first class VIP Bus will get onto the recently upgraded center point ferry with both passengers and luggage on board and unload in an comfortable area away from the hot ferry grounds in the Klong Son valley. From there is just a short ride by "Song Teaw" aka a shared taxi to your resort or hotel on this bounty island.
