Thank you Omega1!

We used Pattaya4Leisure.com

From memory we paid 3000baht ($93 approx) for a 6 seat vehicle.

Wow, that's just for a transfer?

I was under the impression that Laem Chabang and Pattaya is only about 30min away...

Those seem like better prices than we had been quoted for just a transfer to Pattaya and back. I think then we may just wait and see once we get to the pier. Maybe others will join us and we can just grab a taxi.

 

 

Deluxe Van (2 passengers) for $1,500 baht each way.$1,500 x 2 for return trip = $3,000 or approx. $92 USD - $45/personFamily MPV (4 passengers) for $1,600 baht each way$1,600 x 2 for return trip = $ 3,200 or approx. $98 USD - $25/personVIP Van ( 8 passengers) for $2,000 baht each way$2,000 x 2 for return trip = $4,000 or approx. $122 USD - $15.50/person.Even for 6 people it is only around $20 USD.

Hi Omega1,

do you mind letting me know the name of the company you used? Someone tried PT, but they refused. There seem to be more unsatisfied reports with PT lately anyway.

I tried another company and got a quote for a 3 person vehicle, but since then they have not responded to my repeated inquiries for a larger vehicle (they probably don't have one?)

Also, the quote I got for 3 people was 2200baht (about $67.67usd) for 8 hours, so in line with a taxi at the port anyway?

On the two occasions we docked in Laem Chabang (most recent Nov 16), we pre-arranged a cab for six people. They didn't have any problem getting to the cruise terminal. It was good to know, in advance, that we had a cab for the day at a set price.

To seahappy08 (or anyone else who has done this?)

(To lindyloo17, please let us know how it goes!)

also interested in the port taxi system. Do you remember if there were vehicles available for more people? 6-8?

Is there only one place where the taxi's are available? I think I read something about a setup with a board that had set pricing so no haggling was needed. Is this what you used?

Thanks, any more information really appreciated! :)

Thank You so much for the information - this sounds really good, I think we will be using a taxi then, instead of our Tour Operator and guide, were there small minibus or people carrier vehicles available, for say 6 or 8 people?

If you do not mind me asking, what currency did you use for your entrance fees to the places you visited

Thanks again, very much appreciated :cool:
