Whether you're looking for vibrant nightlife or tranquil beaches, Pattaya has something to offer every traveler. Here's how you can reach this exciting destination:
U-Tapao Rayong-Pattaya International Airport (UTP) is the nearest airport to Pattaya, located approximately 40 km from the city. It serves a limited number of domestic and international flights. Travellers can take a taxi or a shuttle bus from the airport to reach Pattaya.
Another convenient option is to fly into Suvarnabhumi Airport (BKK), Bangkok's main international airport, which offers a broader range of flight options and is located around 120 km from Pattaya. From there, you can take a direct bus, a private taxi, or rent a car to reach Pattaya.
The bus is a popular and economical choice. From Bangkok, you can catch a bus to Pattaya from the Eastern Bus Terminal (Ekkamai) or the Northern Bus Terminal (Mochit). The journey typically takes about 2 hours.
A daily train service runs from Hua Lamphong Railway Station in Bangkok to Pattaya. It's slower than other options but offers a scenic ride through the Thai countryside.
Renting a car and driving to Pattaya from Bangkok is straightforward. Travel via the Chonburi-Pattaya Highway (Highway 7) or the Bang Na-Trat Highway (Highway 34) for a quicker journey.
For convenience, you may opt for a private transfer, which can be arranged through your hotel or local travel agencies. While this option is more expensive, it provides door-to-door service and a comfortable journey.
