How to get to Sangkhlaburi ?
From Bangkok, at Mochit bus terminal, there are few buses going to Sangkhlaburi. The public bus company Transport Co LTD, offers two buses in the morning including one departing at 9.30 am. The trip takes 6-7 hours. Otherwise, you will have to go to Kanchanaburi. From there, local bus 8203 goes to Sangkhlaburi with a long stop in Thong Pha Phum. It leaves every 40 minutes and the price is 130 THB for a 4:30 drive. There are also minivans who regularly commute Kanchanaburi to Sangkhlaburi in about 3 hours.Be careful Sangkhlaburi is very popular with Thai people on weekend and public holidays. If from Kanchanburi you will not have trouble finding a place in a the bus or in a minivan, from Bangkok, if possible, buy your ticket in advance.
