Getting Here and Around
You can get here from Bangkok by bus or train, but flying is the most efficient way to go. Thai Air Asia often has low fares here. Buses from Bangkok's Southern Bus Terminal take about 10 hours and cost B300 to B700. There's also an overnight train here from Bangkok's Hua Lamphong Station.
