Transportation: Local bus to the old city
  • Tip Rating:
  • 'Mode': AROUND
    Category: Bus
    Getting TO/AROUND: We took the local bus out to the old city and Historical Park, for 14Bt each way - comfy enough and good way to rub shoulders and smile a lot at the locals - as well as have a chat to tourists. They run all day at very regular intervals, and there are plenty of places to catch them either way.

    Getting TO/AROUND: The airport at Suhkothai is apparently very new, and built by Bangkok Airways. It was a beautiful little place, with gardens, and a lovely cultural reflection of the location - right down to the uniforms worn by the staff! Just lovely, and worth a plane ride to see it!

    Transfer to town, plus accommodation advice and bookings both easily attained at the airport as well.

    Transportation: Bussing out of Sukhothai
  • Tip Rating:
  • 'Mode': TO,AROUND
    Category: Bus
    Getting TO/AROUND: My husband was really on the ropes during our last holiday - for his transport promises! We took the bus from Sukhothai to Phitsanulok - promise for a first class bus - which one is it? Not sure - see pics. There is a vast difference between the bus standards, which doesn't usually matter a lot. I was actually more amused by the jackhammer deal going on at the counter. Very little (or no meaningful) Thai - jackhammer thumping - we didn't even know where to wait - let alone what our transport looked like!
