450 is lowest, but my GF says there is a bus for 150 if you really want to save; she took it

500 is the lowest I've paid. I was told the bus went to Phuket Town not Patong (not that I trust the people who told me)

There is also a minivan, 250-300 Baht. BUT WATCH OUT. They made me and everyone else wait 30 minutes to fill one last seat. Then they drove halfway to a Travel agency for "ticket collection" and spent 20 minutes trying to make us book a hotel with them, even if it meant breaking a reservation we already had.

I wish I had paid the extra 300 baht for a taxi, I wasted a lot of time with the minivan.

My advice, chat someone up and split a taxi.

Ive always had a Car pick me up from the airport and i deal with it as part of my Bill so i think this will be the 1st time i actually have to go hunting.. I knew it was around the 500mark but couldnt be sure....

The same thing happened to me at bkk b4, i mayed the mistake of paying 1st so was forced to take the taxi and wait for hours, thats what happens when u arrive in the middle of the day on the 1st day of song kran lol

Snick, did u see my post on Pattaya Hotels? Dya know anything about Residence Gardens??
