Bangkok to Nakhon Pathom Van Charter with Driver from ฿3,000
Nakhon Pathom lies west of Bangkok, about 94 km along Phetkasem or Borommaratchachonnani roads, roughly one to one and a half hours away. It works equally well for temple pilgrimages, food trips and family outings. Kingtocar arranges private van charters here with a driver at one flat price. Popular reasons to go include Phra Pathom Chedi, the tallest stupa in Thailand, riverside eating at Don Wai floating market on the Tha Chin river, Buddhamonthon park with the children, and university runs to Mahidol Salaya.

Stops & places to visit
6 · Stops & places to visit
Phra Pathom Chedi
The tallest stupa in Thailand at around 120 m and the heart of Nakhon Pathom town. An evening street-food market circles the grounds. Parking is available nearby but fills on Buddhist holy days.
Don Wai floating market
A riverside market on the Tha Chin in Sam Phran district, known for braised duck, river fish and Thai sweets, with sightseeing boats for hire. Open daily but liveliest at weekends.
Wat Rai Khing
The province's major temple, home to the revered Luang Pho Wat Rai Khing image, set on the Tha Chin river with a market alongside selling food and souvenirs — an easy continuation from Don Wai.
Buddhamonthon
A large Buddhist park centred on the towering Phra Si Sakyathotsaphonyan walking Buddha. The grounds are shaded and pleasant for strolling and photographs, with free entry.
Mahidol University Salaya
A large campus with many faculties and dormitories, so name your building when booking. The Film Archive and Buddhamonthon are close by if you want to combine stops.
Sampran Riverside and Lam Phaya floating market
Sampran Riverside offers Thai cultural shows and rose gardens, while Lam Phaya market in Bang Len feels genuinely local, with boat trips along the river. Lam Phaya opens weekends only.
A complete temple circuit in one day
Phra Pathom Chedi, Buddhamonthon and Wat Rai Khing all sit on the same route, making an easy single-day pilgrimage with the van waiting at each stop.
Flat ฿3,000 per trip
฿3,000 for a Toyota Commuter and ฿9,000 for a Toyota Alphard, including fuel, tolls, the driver and bottled water, with nothing added on arrival.
Easy to extend to Damnoen Saduak or Kanchanaburi
Nakhon Pathom sits midway to the Damnoen Saduak floating market and Kanchanaburi. To combine them in one day, take an hourly charter and tell us the plan so we can time the route.
Groups and school trips
Schools and companies running pilgrimage or study trips can book several vans together, with drivers coordinating as a convoy. Send passenger numbers and the itinerary in advance.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
How long is Bangkok to Nakhon Pathom?
About one to one and a half hours depending on your Bangkok pick-up point and route. Starting from the Thonburi side via Borommaratchachonnani is quicker than from the old city. Allow an extra 30 to 45 minutes on Friday evenings and Saturday mornings.
What is included in the ฿3,000?
Fuel, tolls, the driver and bottled water. It is a flat one-way charter price for the whole vehicle rather than per passenger. Entrance fees, meals and ฿500 per night driver accommodation on overnight trips are not included.
Which booking suits several stops in one day?
An hourly charter. Eight hours at ฿5,350 for a Commuter comfortably covers Phra Pathom Chedi, Wat Rai Khing, Don Wai market and Buddhamonthon, with the van and driver staying with you throughout.
Can we continue to Kanchanaburi or Damnoen Saduak?
Yes, though it is priced either as a separate route or as an hourly charter based on actual time used, since those are different provinces. Send us the full day plan on LINE and we will work out which option is cheaper for your trip.
Can you supply several vans for a large group?
Yes. We handle school field trips, merit-making outings and corporate groups, and multiple vans can be booked together with drivers coordinating so everyone arrives at once. Please send numbers, pick-up points and the schedule at least a week ahead.
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 8 hours · 240 km (Commuter ฿5,350 / Alphard ฿12,750). 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 ฿3,000 / Alphard ฿9,000) are a fixed fare with no extra time or distance charges.
