Getting there and away

Bus

It is possible to take a bus directly from Bangkok's Northern (Mochit) station to Sangkhlaburi, though there are only two buses a day, and at seven hours (the last four of which are quite a climb) the ride can be a bit daunting. Most travellers opt rather to make the connection in Kanchanaburi.

Buses depart from the main bus station in central Kanchanaburi every hour between 7:30 to 16:30. The air-con VIP bus costs 169B and takes 4 hours, while the non air-con bus costs 105B and takes at least 5 hours.

The fastest way to get to Sangkhlaburi is to take the minibuses that depart from a private office at the back of the Kanchanaburi bus terminal. Minibuses leave hourly from 07:30 to 16:30 and take three hours. Tickets cost 155B. Since the minibuses can get rather crowded, they're not a good idea if you have a lot of luggage.
