Air-conditioned buses charge according to distance: blue buses start at 11 baht, as do white caterpillar buses. Orange Euro buses start at 12 baht. Mauve Microbuses cost between 20 and 25 baht.

Travel by Bus in ThailandInter-city travel is cheap with government or private bus companies. While private buses from good hotels are usually fine, those from Khao Sarn Road often give a poor and unsafe service while freezing passengers with maximum air conditioning. Ordinary and air-conditioned government buses are generally better. Bangkok terminals are: Ekamai (for the east and northeast), Mor Chit (for the north), Thonburi (for the west) and Pin Klao (for the south).
