How to travel from Ayutthaya to Bangkok

Taking a minivan

Several different companies operate minivans on this route, which are modern vehicles with AC and comfortable seating. Shared minivans are the most affordable and the best option if you are a solo traveler. Bear in mind though, that if you have several big bags, you might be asked to purchase a separate seat.

Shared minivans run throughout the day so you can leave pretty much when you want. Private minivans are a better choice if you’re in a large group or a family. 

 

Taking a private car

If you want to travel in air-conditioned privacy, then you can hire a car and driver to take you from Ayutthaya to Bangkok. There are several vehicle options, from Standard and Economy Cars to SUVs. You can arrange to be collected from any location in Ayutthaya, and taken to your hotel in Bangkok or on to Suvarnabhumi or Don Mueang Airports.
