KINGTOCAR · Private van with driver

Bangkok to Chonburi and Bangsaen Van Charter from ฿2,800

Chonburi is about 78 km from Bangkok along Motorway 7, roughly one to one and a half hours away. The province combines Bangsaen — the closest real beach to the capital — with a provincial capital that serves as a government and commercial hub, plus major industrial estates. Kingtocar arranges private van charters to Chonburi and Bangsaen with a driver at one flat price. Whether it is a family day trip to the beach, a company seminar at a seafront hotel, a student run to Burapha University, or meetings inside the Amata Nakorn estate, tell us the plan and we will arrange it.

Stops & places to visit

6 · Stops & places to visit
Bangsaen Beach

Bangsaen Beach

A 2.5 km stretch of sand lined with seafood restaurants and deck chairs for rent. Weekends are very busy, so arriving before 10am secures both parking and a decent spot on the sand.

Nong Mon Market

Nong Mon Market

Chonburi's best-known souvenir market for khao lam bamboo rice, dried shrimp, dried squid and palm sweets. It sits on Sukhumvit before Bangsaen and is an easy stop on the way home, though weekend evenings get crowded.

Khao Sam Muk

Khao Sam Muk

A viewpoint over the whole Bangsaen bay with a Chinese shrine and a resident monkey troop — keep food and sunglasses out of sight when you step out. Late afternoon gives the best sunset.

Ang Sila

Ang Sila

An old fishing village famous for granite mortars and fresh seafood, with a fish market and reasonably priced restaurants. It is around 10 minutes from Bangsaen and makes a good lunch stop.

Burapha University

Burapha University

Right beside Bangsaen beach, with an Institute of Marine Science and public aquarium that work well for families and school trips. Parking is generous and access is straightforward.

Amata Nakorn Industrial Estate

Amata Nakorn Industrial Estate

A very large estate at Bang Na–Trat km 57 with hundreds of factories. Entry passes a checkpoint, so give the driver the host company name and an internal contact number in advance.

Why book this route with us

084-709-3719

The nearest beach to Bangkok

Bangsaen is only about ninety minutes away, easily done as a day trip without an overnight stay — which makes it ideal for families with young children or older relatives.

Flat ฿2,800 per trip

A Toyota Commuter for 9–13 passengers is ฿2,800 and a Toyota Alphard for 6–7 is ฿7,750, including fuel, motorway tolls, the driver and bottled water.

Door service at beachfront hotels

Most Bangsaen hotels and condominiums allow vehicle drop-off at the entrance, so nobody carries bags far. For group villas down narrow lanes, send a pin and we will confirm access first.

Multi-stop day charters

Bangsaen, Ang Sila, Khao Sam Muk and Nong Mon market are all close together. An eight-hour charter covers the lot in a single day without hunting for another ride.

Travel tips for this route

  1. Motorway 7 outbound is worst on Friday evening and Saturday morning, while the return jams from Sunday afternoon into the evening. Leaving early or heading back before 2pm can save a full hour.
  2. Bangsaen has a pronounced tide. If swimming is the point of the trip, check the tide table — at low water the beach widens and the sea stays shallow a long way out, which is great for toddlers but poor for swimming.
  3. Nong Mon market is easier on the way home because it sits on the Bangkok-bound side, and your fresh purchases do not sit in the van all day. Just tell the driver at the start of the trip.
  4. On long weekends and Songkran, beachfront parking at Bangsaen fills by morning. A chartered van helps a lot: you are dropped at the sand while the driver parks elsewhere and waits.

What's included

  • Professional driver who knows the route
  • Fuel + expressway and motorway tolls

  • Parking fees everywhere · light snacks on board
FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How long does Bangkok to Bangsaen take?

Usually one to one and a half hours via Motorway 7. On Friday evenings, Saturday mornings and long weekends it can stretch to two or two and a half hours, so leaving before 7am gives the smoothest run and a full day at the beach.

What does the ฿2,800 include?

Fuel, motorway and expressway tolls, the driver and bottled water are all included, with nothing collected on the day. Not included are entrance fees, meals, beach chair rental, and ฿500 per night driver accommodation on overnight charters.

Is a day trip worth it, and which booking type is best?

If you plan several stops such as Bangsaen, Ang Sila and Nong Mon, an eight-hour charter at ฿5,350 for a Commuter beats paying ฿5,600 for two one-way trips, and the van stays with you all day.

Can the van drop us at a beachfront hotel entrance?

Yes. Most Bangsaen hotels and condominiums allow drop-off at the door. For group villas down narrow lanes or with height barriers, send a Google Maps pin before booking and we will tell you honestly whether we can reach it.

Is Amata Nakorn the same price as Chonburi town?

Yes, ฿2,800 for a Commuter, since both are around 78 km. If you need to visit several factories in one day, an hourly charter works better, and giving the driver the host company name and an internal number speeds up the checkpoint.

On a full-day charter, what if we go over the time or distance?

If the van and driver stay with your group all day (same-day return or sightseeing stops), packages start at 7 hours · 210 km (Commuter ฿4,800 / Alphard ฿11,450). Extra time is ฿300 per hour for the Commuter or ฿600 per hour for the Alphard, and extra distance is ฿25/km (Commuter) or ฿45/km (Alphard). Entrance tickets are extra, and if you add stops or change plans along the way, we always tell you the price difference first. One-way transfers (Commuter ฿2,800 / Alphard ฿7,750) are a fixed fare with no extra time or distance charges.
