Title: Buses from Pattaya to Buriram
Post by: forrest on July 28, 2008, 04:10:41 PM
Hi there,
  We are looking to find out a bus timetable for Pattaya-Buriram and return and the fare. We have spent ages trawling the net and found loads of references but no real info. If anyone has any ideas where to look or further info it would be much appreciated party4

The bus company doing these route buriram-pattaya-buriram is NCA (nakon chai air) website:
http://www.nca.co.th/

The problem is they show only Ubon-Ratchatani to Buriram and back. now you need to calculate the time they'll arrive Buriram/Pattaya,right?right!:) but this situation is only on the net.
You better call them and ask them as online they are useless.  confused3
The cost will be around 450 Baht/person.

Other option is to take a flight ( http://www.pbair.com/ ) but then again its from bangkok. and the cost will be around 5400 Baht for a round trip/person.

If you have any other question I'm sure people here will be happy to assist you further more.

There is also Sri Monkel who operate the route mostly with a new fleet of 14 Double decker VIP buses,they leave Pattaya from 3rd road about 300 yds on the left from the traffic lights in Pattaya Klang heading for Pattaya Nua.The route no is 589 ,the route is Pattaya -Ubon,50% go via Buriram,50% go via Surin.So make sure you get the right one.I've used it many times to get here in Nong Ki,the fare was 340 baht last month,the one I tend to catch leaves Pattaya at 07-30 gets to Nong Ki 15-30,it stops in Korat for 1 hour.I don't know thw timetable from Buriram but I have seen it on its way from Buriram to Korat passing Makro at around 10-30.There is also a Pattaya -Mukdahan bus <bright yellow> which goes into Buriram ,this leaves Pattaya from the Bus station on Pattaya Nua.
