I continue the theme of moving between Chang and Bangkok. how to get from Bangkok to Koh Chang, I already wrote, today I will tell, how to go in the opposite direction. Basically, if you read the article above the link, then you yourself will understand the whole sequence of actions. Will be all the same thing only in the opposite direction. I will stop only on some nuances, and let all the basic information be in that article.
Koh Chang – Bangkok by yourself
I recall that the island of Chang is connected to the mainland by ferries that run from two piers. Read more about the ferries here – Ferry Trat – Koh Chang. So if you want to go to Bangkok yourself, then you will need first to take the shuttle bus from your beach to Koh Chang Ferry Pier or Center Point Ferry Pier, buy a ferry ticket, go to the mainland, and mainland pier to buy a ticket for the bus or minibus to Bangkok And the mini-bass can be different, some will go to Ekkamai East Station, others to Suvarnabhumi Airport, third to Victory Monument metro. This whole journey can be done without preparation, just get up early and go.
Estimates for the price will be something like this: from the beach 50-200 baht to berth (depending on the distance of the beach), 80 baht ferry, 300-400 baht minibus or bus. Travel time from the mainland pier to Bangkok about 5 hours on the bus and 4 hours on the minibus.
If for some reason, mini-bass from continental moorings do not will be, then you can go by bus to the bus station in Trat, where buy a bus ticket to Bangkok, they go often enough there is night, come to the bus station Ekkamai.
In this case, the cost of moving will be as follows: from the beach 50-200 baht to the pier (depending on the distance of the beach), 80 baht ferry, 50-100 baht minibus to Trat, 250-300 baht bus.
Koh Chang – Bangkok Transfer
For me, this option is much more convenient at a very similar price. Most just a transfer option, is to buy it in the nearest travel agency on Koh Chang, prices may vary, point of arrival in Bangkok also. I noticed that if I asked for a transfer in my guesthouse, then the price is slightly higher, apparently they charge for mediation. Transfer can to be different, both with transfers and without. Can be taken to the pier transplanted, after the ferry put in a bus or minibus, and can directly from the hotel to carry in one minibus.
Schedule for buses and minibuses in the travel agency on Koh Chang
I liked the office called SWBtour, which in fact This business here http://www.bussunabhumikohchang.com/. And the previous one The site that was written on the glass of the office does not work and apparently for a long time. Well, the Thais are not steaming over such trifles. They have two offices on Koh Chang island, one in Klong Son, that between the pier Koh Chanf Ferry Pier and White Sand Beach, and the second at Lonely Beach.
Transfer from Klong Son Bus Station to the airport Suvarnabhumi – 400 baht. From White Sand Beach – 500 baht, from others beaches even more. The price includes a ferry ticket. Basically no one bothers to get to their office on their own minibus-songteo.
There are only 3 mini-bass per day (departure time – time Arrivals): 7.00 – 13.00 13.00 – 20.00 17.00 – 00.00
If there are too many people, a bus is formed, at least to the extent they told me so, and indeed, once I drove instead minibus on the bus.
If this option seems inconvenient to you, buy others. transfers, but my advice is to go exactly to Suvarnabhumi airport, if you need to bangkok itself. The fact is that in any scenario You drive through Suvarnabhumi, from which there is a direct metro line to city center. It may well be that it will be faster rather than driving through the city in traffic jams.

The inscriptions are outdated, and the site is different, and the time is not right
If on arrival in Bangkok you need to stay somewhere on overnight, you can find a hotel at RoomGuru, this is a service where it is convenient compare hotel prices in different booking systems.
I have stayed in Bangkok many times and in different hotels. I will not give links to all my reviews, I’ll give only a few. Nasa Vegas – convenient to stop near the airport and metro, Rajata – A good place to spend the night near Khaosan, S3 Residense is located in the center next to the park.
