Private Van with Driver from Bangkok to Koh Tao (Chumphon Pier)
A private van from Bangkok to the Koh Tao boat piers in Chumphon costs ฿9,000 for a Toyota Commuter or ฿19,000 for a Toyota Alphard per vehicle, one way, including the driver, fuel, tolls and drinking water. The drive is about 484 km and takes around 6.5–7.5 hours, and pickup from your Bangkok home, hotel, Suvarnabhumi or Don Mueang is the same price. There is no car ferry to Koh Tao for visitors, so the van drops you at the pier of the boat you booked, and the crossing takes roughly 1.5–3 hours depending on the boat. Book on LINE @kingtocar or call 084-709-3719.
