Ao Thammachat Pier Location
Hi – I fly into Trat on December 2. Do I just need to get a taxi to the ferry port? Am I able to buy a ticket online to secure my spot? Thanks!
When you land in Trat you can buy a ticket for the shared minibus service that will drop you off at your hotel on Koh Chang. Or can take a pick up truck taxi to the mainland ferry pier.
Tickets for the ferry can’t be booked online in advance.
So the minibus service can take me from the Trat airport all the way to the koh chang island? Thanks!
Yes, that’s how most people will get from the airport to their hotel. Some information on https://tratairportguide.com
Hi Captain,
I am arriving 18th December, flying into Trat from BKk but the arrival is 17:55 which will not allow time to catch the 18:30 ferry. Is there likely to be change in ferry times in peak season or maybe Bangkok Airways move their flight earlier?
What would be the cost of private boat taxi if needed? is this is easy to arrange?
many thanks
No one knows at the moment. It was the same situation last November. After a week or two Bangkok Airways changed the time of PG307 to 17:15, which it is at the moment.
A couple of locals have boats and take people to the island. I think they charge around 4,000 Baht for the boat. Then on Koh Chang it would be another 500 – 800 Baht for a private taxi to your hotel.
Thanks for the reply, Bangkok Airways have now moved the afternoon flight to arrive at 17:15.
Hello,
We will arrive at 12.11.2023 in the afternoon by private transfer at Laem Sok Pier.Is it right that the last ferry leaves at 18:30 to Koh Chang. Ferry leaves every thirty minutes?
Thanks
The boats to Koh Chang leave from piers near Laem Ngop. Don’t go to Laem Sok, that is about 40km away and is the pier for boats to Koh Kood.
Boats are timetabled for every hour. But are usually more frequent. There’s no way to know in advance exactly what time a boat might leave. But the last boat is at about 18:30.
Hi,
We are a Family of 4 and planning to go to Koh Chang. We will drive down and would take our car on board. Is there a way to book the ferry ticket online or is it best advised to buy the ferry ticket from the counter on the pier?
Ferry tickets can’t be booked in advance. You have to buy them when you arrive at the pier.
Hello
I will be travelling by bicycle in november.
What is the best way to go to Koh Chang ? What company ?
How to do it with a bicycle ?
Thanks !!!
You can take your bicycle on either ferry free of charge. It is easiest to use Ferry Koh Chang from Ao Thammachat pier as they have more frequent departures and a faster crossing time. Just buy a boat ticket when you arrive at the pier and you’ll be on the next boat that will depart.
Good afternoon,
Tomorrow we are flying to Trat Airport.
Is the last option from Ao Thammachat going at 18:30 (so we manage :)) or 17:20 (we won’t manage :().
And, do we stil buy tickets at the peer?
We are 2 people with luggage, so hopefully you can squeeze us in for the 18:30 boat as long it goes ?
Kind regards,
Kristian and Simone
The last ferry is at 18:30. Bit you’ll have no problem catching it. From Trat Airport you can take a shared pick up truck taxi to the pier or buy tickets for the minibus that will drop you off at your hotel on the island.
Thank you so much for the quick reply ??
We arrive on Friday 14th Late from River Kwai. Due to Songkran we are not sure if we arrive late as 6.30 pm if we will find a place for our car on the ferry. Will there be extra ferries provided after 6.30 pm if there are enough cars/ passengers left?
If it’s very busy and a lot of people are waiting then ferries will be running later than 18:30. But this won’t be announced in advance. Ideally leave Kanchanaburi as early as possible.
What is the best pier to take the ferry from? Is there a place we can find the departure schedule?
Thank you!
Heather
The best pier is Ao Thammachat pier. The official timetable is on this page. However during busy periods the boats run more frequently (every 20-30 minutes) and not according to the timetable.
Can I book a ferry ticket including two passenger and a car in advance or is it possible to just show up? (April 11th to Koh chang and April 23rd back)
Tickets can’t be booked in advance. Buy them when you arrive at the pier.
Hallo!
Kann man Gepäck auf die Fähre mitnehmen? Wie viel KG?
There isn’t a limit to the amount of luggage you can take.
We are trying to get from chaing Mai to trat airport and the only options are getting us in at 5:55 is that enough time to get to the ferry
It might be but no guarantee. It’s around 20 minutes drive from the airport to the mainland pier.
Bangkok Airways will probably change the flight time back to arriving at 17:15, which has been the case for the past 4 months and is the same for all flights until the end of October.
Until November last year PG307 always arrived at 17:55, but the last ferry was at 19:00. Then the ferry company changed the time of the last boat to 18:30 and Bangkok Airways followed by changing the time of PG307 to 17:15. So they probably haven’t got round to updating flight timetables for next high season.
Is it possible to get a ferry from koh Chang and over water to pattaya?
No
How do I get from Trat bus terminal to the ferry? Do I need to buy tickets online?
You can take a pick up truck taxi from Trat bus station to the pier.
At what time is the latest ferry to Koh Chang on Monday evening?
The last ferry is at 18:30. The same time every day.
Dear, If my flight PG307 arrived at Trat airport on 17:15, 31 March, is it possible to take the last boat of Koh Chang Ferry on 18:30?
Don’t worry. You wont have any problem getting to Koh Chang the same evening.
is there secure parking at the ferry to koh mak
There is a safe parking area at a restaurant / tour agent opposite the pier.
which ferry ja the best to get flight PG308 to BKK?
thx
Ferries aren’t running to fixed timetables at the moment. They depart about every 30 minutes or more frequently if it is busy. So be at the ferry pier around 2 and a half or 3 hours before your flight and you will get to the airport in time for it.
if i arrive at Trat airport at 17.15 on the flight to bangkok, is there enough time to get to the ferry port in time to catch the last ferry?
PG307 now lands at 16:00. So there’s no problem getting to Koh Chang the same evening.
It says on the Bangkok airways website it leaves bangkok at 16.16 and arrives in trat at 17.15?
Hi.
Is there still a bus from mainland pier to Bangkok (Ekkamai eg.)? And what time is it running? Or do you need to go to Trat busstation? Thank you!
Yes. At around 14:30 from Ao Thammachat pier to Ekkamai bus station, Bangkok.
More info : https://iamkohchang.com/getting-here/999-bus-bangkok-kohchang
sorry i mean flight from bangkok – PG307
When, in a few months, PG307 changes schedule and arrives at 17:15 you’ll still be able to get to Koh Chang the same evening. The last ferry is at 18:30.
We have the same question! Looking at a flight from BKK to Trat arriving 17.15 – Is that enough time to clear the airport, and make it on to the last Ferry to Koh Chang?
Yes. No problem. The last ferry is at 18:30. It’s only 15-20 minutes from the airport to the pier
Hi!
We are a family backpackers and have some questions about ferry between koh Chang and Trat. I will be planing to go to Koh chang in 2 weeks. I have contacted with a private taxi to drive us to Cambodia from Trat Pier. Taxi will pick up me there and they need to know what name pier in Trat. I am curious that how long time to drive from the pier to Thailand border, to Cambodia? I have 2 children and they is are under 3 years so that they are free? Is it only we pay for 2 adults for the tickets? How do we book ticket for ferry?
Ferry tickets can’t be booked in advance. You can buy them when you arrive at the pier. Your kids will be free.
The mainland pier is called Ao Thammachat.
From the pier to the nearest border, at Hat Lek, is around 1 hour 45 minutes.
If you are going to Siem Reap, then it’s around 3 and a half hours drive to Aranyapratet border crossing.
Hi, we are two adults and a child with a car. Shall we just pay the price for one vehicle? Thanks
You have to buy a ticket for the car plus two adult tickets and one child ticket
Is a reservation needed to bring a car on the ferry, or is it okay to just show up and buy a ticket on the travel days. We’ll arrive to the Trat ferry terminal Tuesday January 24 and return on Thursday January 26.
Ferry tickets can’t be booked in advance. Just buy them when you get to the pier.
Hi
We are in trat today at 18:00 but our flight has 20’ of delay. Could you please wait for us 10’ if we arrive a bit late?l with the ferry to Koh Chang?
Thank you so much!
Stephanie
The minibus company at Trat airport will contact the ferry company to advise them of the delay.
Is the ferry from koh Chang very busy this week, we are leaving the island on thursday and the bus operator told us to to expect really long waiting time?
The maximum waiting time was around 1 and a half hours yesterday and on 1 January. But now all the Thai visitors who were here for New Year have left, so waiting time is back to petty much normal. Boats aren’t running to a fixed timetable. They are around every 30 minutes or more frequent if it’s busy.
Hallo.
We’re 4 passengers on our way now to the ferry (from the mainland, AO Thammachart). We can’t really figure out what time the latest ferry to Koh Chang departs. However, our taxi says we’re at the harbor at 18.39. So If it is somehow possible to wait 10 minutes ?!
We’re hoping, thank you so much!
Wilma
The last ferry is scheduled to leave at 18:30.
It is sometimes late, so if you have good luck you might be able to get it.
Guten Tag.
Gibt es direkt am Pier Taxis die mich zum Flughafen bringen?
You will see shared pick up truck taxis at the mainland ferry pier that can take you to Trat Airport.
Hi! Is there advance booking for ferry? We are two adults, one small child and we will have a sedan car. Travel date 30th Dec return on 4th Jan. Since it is peak season, I want to know if we can book in advance.
Boat tickets cant be booked in advance. You have to queue and wait for a ferry. You should try to get to the pier as early as possible on the 30th. And on the 4th it will be better to leave Koh Chang early morning or late afternoon, then you will avoid long queues.
Hello,
Is there a way to book online ? Is it possible to book today’s ferry at 18:30 ? Also, what is the pier to go to take the ferry ?
Thank you very much
No. Ferry tickets can’t be booked in advance. Only one ferry company is operating services at the moment. Boats depart from Ao Thammachat pier on the mainland.
Hi, we want to go to Trat Airport from Koh Kood via Koh Chang by bang boa wooden Boat. Is it possible to cross Koh Chang by shared Minibus to the Ferry Pier and then to Trat Airport?
The Bangbao Boat wooden boat arrives at Bangbao around 16:00. So you probably won’t have time to get to Trat Airport for flight PG308.
It will be too late for the shared minibus. So you would need a private transfer and then have to hope that the 16:45 ferry departs late. (As it will be about 50 minutes drive from Bangbao to Ao Sapporot pier) If it is on time the next boat is at 18:00 – and you would miss your flight.
A better idea is to take the Boonsiri Ferry from Koh Kood to Laem Sok and then a pick up truck taxi to Trat Airport or the Boonsiri ferry shuttle service. Then you wont have any problem getting to the airport on time.
Hello,
I am reading that Koh Chang will experience monsoon rains from November 21 – November 24. I have a Boonsiri van + ferry booked for Nov 24. Does anyone know if Boonsiri cancels the whole route if weather is bad or just the ferry portion? And how likely do they cancel?
Ferries still run if it rains. The rainy season is pretty much over. Just the occasional thunderstorm and heavy downpour.
(Ferries occasionally stop operating due to extremely bad weather but I can only remember that happening once or twice in the past few years and for a few hours at a time.)
Are there buses from the pier to Bangkok? If yes – at what time and what is the price? Can we book tickets in advance (for the next day) and can we get a contact to the operator to ask all the questions?
Thanks!
There is one bus from Ao Thammachat pier on the mainland to Ekkamai bus station, Bangkok. This leaves at around 14:30. Tickets cant be booked in advance. Or if you are staying on Koh Chang you can buy a ticket for a shared minibus to Bangkok at your hotel or any tour agent.
Hello we are going to Koh kood 26 desember 4 persons. Do we need to book ticket before on nett so the ferrie doesnt be full?
Do you have ferries from Koh kood to Koh Chang 28 of desember?
Mvh
Pernilka
You can book tickets for Boonsiri Ferry online or can buy them at the pier. If you get to the pier an hour before the boat you want to take then you won’t have any problems getting a ticket.
From Koh Kood to Koh Chang you can take a speedboat or wooden boat. Buy tickets at your hotel on Koh Kood when you arrive.
Hi
We will arrive at the pier in the afternoon , before 18:30.
I read it is not possible to buy tickets in advance.
Is it guaranteed to go with the ferry to Koh Chang?
Can the Tickets be bought on the ferry?
We travel by foot.
Thanks and best regards
Markus
The time of the last ferry has just been changed to 19:00.
Foot passengers will always be able to get on the boat. Tickets can’t be booked in advance.
Hello, we arrive at the border Cambodia / Thailand (Koh kong / hat lek) at 4pm, Will we manage to take the last ferry?
since today a lot of people go on holiday, Is there the possibility that the last ferry Is postponed?
in case we wont manage to take last ferry, are there private boat taxis After 7pm to Ko Chang?
You should be able to get from the border to the ferry pier in under 2 hours by taxi. So you’ll be able to get the last boat at 7pm.
Do the ferry’s leave on time? We might be a little later than 7pm
During the day ferries often don’t stick to the schedule, but the last ferry will leave on time. If you miss the last boat there is a small bungalow resort about 1km from the pier – Lom Talay Resort.
From 1 December onwards the last boat will be at 18:30.
Hello. What time does the last ferry boat to Koh Chang leave on January 10th? Thank you
The last ferry is at 18:30
Hello,
we are arriving in Trat the 9th of November with PG307 at 17.55pm. We wanted to know if KohChangFerry is going to return work until 19.00?! or if we are going to manage to get to Koh Chang? Thank you for your help.
Nothing has been announced et regarding changing the time of the last ferry back to 19:00. If it remains at 18:30 then you may or may not be able to get to Koh Chang the same evening. No-one can guarantee that it will be possible.
Hello, i gonna be travelling to Koh Chang in December. is a a chance that because of high season that the ferries will be running later than 18.30? arrival on the 30th of december
Greets
Yes there’s a good chance as there will be a lot of Thai tourists driving to the island. But there’s no way to know 100% for sure in advance.
A decision would only be made on the day, depending on how busy it was.
Thank you so much for your reply! sure, you don´t have 100% on anything in life, but good to know that there is a chance 🙂
greets from germany
Hello,
we’re hoping to take the ferry to the Koh Chang on september 9th or 10th at the latest. Are the ferries running? Thanks in advance!
Ferries are running as normal.
There has been some heavy rain but the sea between the mainland and Koh Chang is sheltered from storms, which come from the southwest. So bad weather rarely affects the ferries in a serious way.
Hi,
We will be in Koh Chang/Koh Kood in the first 2 weeks of November. Will there be any interisland boats at that time? I can’t find any timetable.
Thank you in advance 🙂
The usual (pre-covid) timetable is here : https://kohchangferries.com/boats-koh-mak-koh-kood/.
However as there are still very few foreign tourists, there will probably only be the Bangbao Boat wooden boat service running in November. This will start running some time in late October / early November, depending on the weather and demand.
Hallo, wie kommt man von Koh Chang nach Koh Mak und Koh Kood ? Gibt es zwischen den Inseln Fähren ?
There are boats between the islands, but only during high season – from late October to mid May. No services at the moment.
Last year there was just one service a day by wooden boat in high season
.
But before covid there were also daily services by speedboat and Boonsiri Ferry.
I don’t know if they will start again this year. It will depend on how many tourists there are.
We plan on traveling the last week in October.
Is there any secure overnight parking at the Ferry port, so we can park our camper & catch the ferry the next morning & also, is there any vehicle height restrictions on the ferry.
There’s secure parking at the ferry pier. No problem to take a camper van on the ferry. It is used by large 18 wheel trucks and other commercial vehicles.
Hello, we plan to arrive to Trat airport at 1755 on November 12. Will be manage to catch the last ferry to Ko Chang?
At the moment the last ferry is at 18:30. But when Bangkok Airways start flying PG307 again, the last ferry will revert to the normal time of 19:00. So that passengers on the flight won’t miss it. (The last boat was always 19:00 until covid.)
Using a Google maps search:
“From Trat Airport to Koh Chang Ferry”
Shows that it is 17.2km which will take about 20 minutes. It seems that you will be cutting it fine 🙂
The last ferry will be at 19:00 when PG307 begins operating again. That allows plenty of time to get to the pier.
If the flight is delayed, the ferry waits for passengers coming from Trat Airport.
In very rare cases where the flight is delayed for 2-3 hours due to severe weather or mechanical problems, a special boat is run for Bangkok Airways passengers.
Dear sir,
Do u have the car park for overnights in pier/port area?
Thanks
Yes, you can park overnight at the mainland pier. There’s a small parking area near the ticket office.
But very few people do, as it’s more convenient to bring their car onto the island.
Hi
I would like to know is this time schedule still running on May 2022?
Can we drive private car to the ferry?
Thank you very much
Any changes to the ferry timetable are usually only announced a few days in advance.
At busy times ferries will run more frequently. And boats don’t always leave according to the timetable.
No problem to take your car on the ferry.
How often do.buses / shared minivans go to bkk from the pier on Thursday morning The 14th June please
There is a big bus at around 14:30 daily to Ekkamai bus station. At present there aren’t any public minibus services to or from the pier.
Hello,
What are all the schedule for this ferry during the low season?
Thank you.
It hasn’t been announced yet. Any timetable changes are usually announced a few days before they start. Not weeks or months in advance.
Hi
If i need to catch ferry at 10.45, what time am need to arrive at main pier, by considering Songkran festival Crowd ? and how many ticket could buy one person from counter ?
If you are travelling as a foot passenger then you can arrive 15 minutes before the boat leaves and you will be able to get on it. You can buy as many tickets as you need for your group.
If you are driving any delays will depend on which day you are travelling and whether you are going from the mainland to Koh Chang or from Koh Chang to the mainland.
Hi !
We are a group of 5 in Bangsaen at the moment and we plan to take the 18:30 ferry to koh chang. Is it possible to book in advance our tickets ? Do you know if there is any alternative after 18:30 to go to Koh Chang ? (Maybe by going to another island and then from this island to Koh Chang ?) Thanks !
It’s not possible to book ferry tickets in advance. Foot passengers always get on the next boat. But if you think you’ll arrive at the pier after 18:30, stay the night in Trat town.
The last boat to Koh Mak is around 16:00 from Krom Luang pier, Laem Ngop. The last boat to Koh Kood is at 14:20 from Laem Sok pier.
Hi! Just wondering if I leave BKK at 12noon can I still make it on the ferry going to Koh Chang? Thank you.
Yes. It’s around 4 and half hours drive from Bangkok to the mainland pier. The last ferry is at 18:30
Wow. Sweet! Thank you so much! ??
I’ll have my dog with me in the car. Can I take him out of the car on the ferry? If not, can I stay in the car during the crossing or do passengers have to get out of the car? Thanks!
It’s Ok if you want to take the dog out of the car on the ferry. You can take him upstairs to the sitting area. Or you can stay in the car with the dog. That is OK too
Hello, i read about changes in the timetable. Is it correct there are daily ferrys at 7 pm?
Thank you
Yes. Correct. The last ferry to & from Koh Chang is at 19:00 from 1 November onwards.
Hello, do you have an updated ferry schedule as of September? Thank you.
The timetable hasn’t changed. Although boats don’t always depart on time. They often wait until they are full before leaving.
Do you have an updated car ferry schedule as of August 4?
The timetable is current. It was updated last week.
Hello,
I have a question regarding the Covid-Situation. I am coming from Koh Phangan, which is a green zone. Do I need a PCR or Antigen Test to enter the Trat province?
Thank you in advance.
Best Regards,
Melanie Stellbogen
There aren’t any restrictions on people entering Trat province.
The only restrictions are for people checking into hotels & coming from one of the ‘dark red’ provinces. They have to show a negative covid test or proof of vaccination.
So you won’t have any problems if you come to Koh Chang from Koh Pha Ngan. But your hotel might ask for some proof that you have been living there. For example, you could show a 90 day report at Immigration or photo of rental contact etc
Now that the area is a blue zone do you still need vax and or 72 hr PCR. Is there a check point?
There are often, but not always, checks at the mainland ferry piers.
Passengers have to show proof of vaccination or a negative PCR covid test issued within the previous 72 hours or negative, doctor certified, ATK test issued within the previous 48 hours.
We are planning to drive there around 19th,20th July. Wanted to know if we can rely on your current time table or any changes should you provide contact number so that we keep checking please . Thank you.
The time table might change depending on how busy it is or the weather conditions. There’s no way to know for sure in advance.
Your prices for cars, are passengers included or is the an extra payment
Car + 5 people
Regards
There are separate tickets for passengers and vehicles.
A car is 120 Baht one way. An adult passenger is 80 Baht one way. So the total would be 520 Baht for a car and five adults.
Hello,
I have a few queries,
1) Can you pls update if there are any restrictions or any additional requirements due to covid 19 on travel by ferry to koh chang
2) Any change in the schedule of ferry, is it still once every hour on all the days and what is the time of the first ferry and the last ferry.
3) The pictures show cars parked almost next to each other, Is there a risk of cars banging into each other while the ferry is in motion. I am asking this because some people often leave their car in neutral gear without a parking brake.
1) There aren’t any restrictions on who can travel by ferry to Koh Chang. The only restrictions are for guests from the ‘dark red’ provinces when they check in to their hotels. They will need to show a negative covid test or proof of vaccination.
2) The current ferry timetable is shown on this page. (It sometimes varies, depending on the weather or how busy it is.)
3) People put the handbrake on when they park on a boat. Over the past 15+ years I’ve only seen a couple of cases where a vehicle has moved and hit another whilst on the ferry.
Is the ferry operational on May 15?
Is the island open for tourists?
Do you need negative PCR test to enter Koh Chang?
Do you have to stay in quarantine when arriving at Koh Chang?
Ferries are running every day.
The island is open for tourists.
You don’t need a negative test to enter Koh Chang. But you will be asked to show a negative test, taken within the previous 72 hours, when you check in to your hotel.
You don’t have to stay in quarantine
Hello,
Coming there for 9 days on the 17th of April. Is the schedule running as currently posted? We will be bringing our 155cc motorcycle and what is the cost for this bike?
I just updated the timetable. It was changed a couple of days ago, there are hourly sailings now.
In reality, if it is busy the ferries will just fill up and go. You won’t have to wait long for a boat, as motorbikes & scooters will go on the next departure. They don’t have to wait in a queue unlike cars.
The motorbike price will be 80 Baht.
Hi Captain
We plan to bring our car to Koh Chang on Saturday 10th April and leave on Monday 12th April. We have 2 small children and would like to avoid any long queue. Could you please tell us the best times to arrive and leave on the ferry as we are not sure if Songkran this year will be a busy time?
Thank you
Songkran is the busiest time of year on Koh Chang. On 10 April you should plan to get to the pier as early as possible. Many people will leave Bangkok in the middle of the night to be at the ferry early morning. You don’t have to leave that early. But you should try to get to the pier before lunchtime to avoid the longest queues. going back the ferries will be busiest mid morning to mid afternoon. So plan to leave early, before 08:00 or late, after 16:00.
Can we book tickets online or need to get tickets from there?
Buy tickets at the pier. They can’t be booked in advance or online.
If they’re secure parking for the car so you have to wait for your turn I think safe to be kept in the car or should everything be removed from the car thank you for your reply
There’s secure overnight parking, for people who don’t want to take their car on the ferry. It’s sensible not to leave anything valuable in it.
But virtually everyone who drives to the pier will take their car on to Koh Chang.
Question on bringing my car on the ferry do I drive the car onto the boat and if somebody else parked my car to wait my turn I think safe and to be kept in the car
You drive the car onto the ferry yourself. No-one will else will drive or park your car.
OK thank you if I have to wait for my turn to put the car on the ferry if I leave a few things in the car while I’m waiting my turn to drive my car on-the ferry Do I take everything out of the car can I leave things in the car before I put it on the ferry because I thought you have to park your car and wait your turn for the ferry
Most people wait in their cars. I’ve never seen anyone take stuff out of their car whilst waiting for the ferry. There’s no reason to do that.
Are both piers that go to KoChang You wait your turn and you stay in the car
Yes. But, if you want, you can go and get a coffee or stretch your legs while you wait for the boat.
Dear Captain
Thank you for your quick response and good information, this will save us a lot of stress…
Have a great night
Tim
Hi, We have a Toyota Yaris small 4 door sedan. The tyres are smaller ones, with the very front of the car having a spoiler, leaving not much clearance from the ground. How is the drive on access on the ramp? I am concerned about bottoming out on the front of the car. Cheers. Regards Mark
It will be OK. It’s only really a problem at extremely high or low tides. (A few times a year)
Small cars, low riding sports cars and vehicles with skirts etc drive on and off at an angle so they don’t get scratched under the car.
Hi! I am taking my SUV to Koh Chang and heard that there are only two times in the day that the ferries run which can transport vehicles. Is that true? If so, what are the two times in the day? Thanks!
The ferries to Koh Chang are all vehicle ferries. Every boat takes vehicles. The information you have is 20 + years out of date. 🙂
hi
what is the schedule for December 2020 -January 2021
thanks
Hi. I’ve just updated the ferry timetables with new information. Centrepoint now departs every two hours. Ferry Koh Chang is hourly.
Hi are the ferry’s still.running 5/01/21
Yes. Running to the usual timetable.
Where can I book tickets in advance?
2 adults / 1 kid over 110cm / a car
Tickets can’t be booked in advance. Buy them when you arrive at the pier.
Price for Honda PCX and Driver. Thank you kindly
40 Baht for the scooter & 80 Baht for the driver.
Hi, do I need my passport for the crossing or will a copy be ok?
My passport is being sent to immigration for 2 weeks so I will not have it.
There’s no requirement to show your passport or any ID when you take the ferry.
Your hotel will probably ask for your passport when you check in, so you will need a copy if you don’t have the original.
Could you please tell me if there is a ferry from Ao Sapparot to Ao Thammachart tomorrow 15sept around 8 or 9am.Thank you
Yes. Ferries are running normally.
Hi, can I buy tickets in the early morning on the day of travel for Koh Chang to Trat Ao Thammachat for later in the day, about 3pm? Or can you only buy tickets for the next ferry leaving? This will be in peak time Jan 11th 2020
You could buy tickets earlier in the day. But there’s no reason to do that. If you’re a foot passenger, you will get on the next boat anyway. If you are driving you’ll have to queue with everyone else. You can’t jump the queue.
Can I take my 15 seater van to Koh Chang?
No problem. You can bring a car, van, 18 wheel truck etc on the ferry.
If you want to take your car to Koh Chang do you need to book in advance?
Tickets can’t be booked in advance. You just join the queue and wait for the next boat.
Hi
If you want to go with the last ferry at 7 pm from ko Chang to Bangkok, are you sure to get on or is it possible the Ferry is full and you will have to wait until next day? We will be leaving for Sweden the next morning so we have to be sure to get on the ferry.
If you arrive at the pier early then you won’t have any problems taking the boat. If you arrive late and the boat is full, you could try Centrepoint ferry, their last boat is at 19:30 and is rarely full.
Rental car insurance obviously does not cover the ferry transportation. They informed to buy
additional cover at the pier. How much is this and where to buy it exactly? thx
There isn’t anywhere to buy insurance at the pier. It isn’t something that people worry about when they come to Koh Chang. Your car will be safe on the ferry.
Hello ferrie,
We take your derry tommorrow to ko chang. Can there be full boats so cars have to wait one or two baots or is there always space for cars?
Greetz jeroen
If it’s busy, vehicles have to wait for a boat. At New Year and Thai holidays, the waiting time can be 3-4 hours or longer.
hi, Since the last ferry will wait for the passengers from TRAT airport, is it possible to catch the ferry when we start driving from Suvarnabhumi around 13:00?
If you leave Suvarnabhumi before 14:00 in a car, you won’t have any problems catching the ferry to Koh Chang.
Hi,
is there a ferry going from Koh Chang to mainland after 7pm on December 16th?
The last ferry from Ao Sapporot pier on Koh Chang is at 7pm every day.
Hi does the timetable change for the ferries on Sunday or special holidays? Dates planning to leave Koh Chang is the 9th of December. Thank you.
The timetable is the same. But at busy periods the ferries will run more frequently and also late night if a lot of people are waiting for boats ( Eg at New Year holiday )
Hello we are 6 people traveling form pattaya to koh chang at 10:30 today, i was wondering witch ferry to take and if it still have the same timescedule and how long it may take
The schedules are the same as on the website. Ferry Koh Chang, from Ao to takes about 30 minutes to the island. Centrepoint ferry takes about an hour.
We are coming by car to the pier Ao Thammachat, when can we park the car safely on the pier for 2 or 3 nights (during our stay in Koh Chang) please ?
thanks
There’s secure parking near the ticket office. But why not bring your car on the ferry to Koh Chang? Then you can get around the island easily
Hi ferries ! Now I stay with my car in trat city ! Tomorrow I want go koh Chang first boat ! What time in suitable for I go to ao tamacharat ?? In the morning for 6.30
It is under 40 minutes drive from Trat to Ao Thammachat. So leave your hotel before 05:45 and you should get to the pier in time for the first boat.
Hi there, I assume arriving with last flight from BKK to Trat at 6pm will catch up to last ferry to Koh Chang around 7pm?
The last ferry always waits for passengers coming from Trat Airport. Even if the flight is delayed a special fery is provided. So you wont have any problems getting here the same evening.
See Trat Airport Information for details of shared minibuses and private transfers from the airport to hotels on Koh Chang
Hi,
We arrive Monday 12th Novembre with the plane PG307 from Bangkok to Trat at 5:55pm.
Should we book in advance a transfer from airport to ferry and the ferry for Koh Chang ?
Many thanks for your reply.
Margaux
You can buy tickets for the shared minibus when you land in Trat. It will drop you off at your hotel on Koh Chang. Or you can book in advance at this Trat Airport website
Hi, I’m coming by bus from Bangkok in early November, I’m wondering do I need to book the ferry ticket in advance or can I purchase a ticket and get on a ferry easily when we arrive to the pier??
Thanks
Hi Melanie. Tickets for the ferries to Koh Chang can’t be booked in advance. Buy one when you reach the pier. ( Foot passengers never have to wait for a boat, unlike those in vehicles which often do at busy times.)
Hi
May I know is the 4-wheel car ticket available for mini van with 10 seats?
Any additional charge for that?
Thanks
A minibus has 4 wheels, so the price for the vehicle is the same as for a car.
May I know the actual price for the ticket from Bang Kok to Koh Chang ?
We booked a mini van with 10 seats.
So is the same price for every type of car to get on the boat?
There are a lot of different companies running bus & minibus services from Bangkok to Koh Chang. I don’t know their prices. All 4 wheel vehicles pay the same price for the ferry.
Passengers are priced separately, so a car with two people costs the same as a minibus with 2 people, but a lot less than a minibus with 10 people.
Hi,
When is the last ferry to ko chang today?
Is there a ferry at 19:30?
Thanks
Yes. The last ferry from Centrepoint pier is at 19:30 daily.
Must I book the transfer bus (for 2 persons) AND pay in advance? We are heading to West side, Koh Chang.
//BM
You can book minibus tickets from Trat Airport to hotels on Koh Chang on Tratairportguide.com
Good morning I will be at trat airport on 24 december at about 12:30 and I will take a taxi to go to the pier: is it possible to book in advance two tickets for ko chang? Thanks in advance
There aren’t any public taxis at Trat Airport. And ferry tickets cant be booked in advance.
But Bangkok Airways run a minibus service for their passengers to hotels on Koh Chang. See this Trat Airport Guide for information.
Good afternoon, I am arriving from Bangkok on the 27th of November around 17:00-17:30. Is it possible to cacht a boat to koh chang? When is the last one?
The last ferries are at 19:00 & 19:30.
So you won’t get to Koh Chang the same day.
Could someone please tell me what is the best way to get from Koh Chang to Bangkok? And what time does the ferry depart Koh Chang. Trying to decide whether to catch a flight back from Trat or just take a bus back to the city and if so where would the bus drop you off. Many thanks.
The ferry timetable for Centrepoint pier is on this site. Boats from the main ferry pier do not run to a fixed timetable. They’re around every 45 minutes from 06:40 onwards.
There isn’t a best way to get to Bangkok. It depends on your budget and style of travelling.
You could take a minibus from your hotel on Koh Chang to a hotel in Bangkok city centre if you want an inexpensive door to door service.
More information on the ways to travel here : https://iamkohchang.com/getting-here/timetables-and-schedules.html
Hello, What is the approximate travel time from Koh Chang to Bangkok? I thought i saw 30-45 Minutes, but i wanted to confirm. Thank you very much.
It is abou 350km from Koh Chang to Bangkok. So it’s not possible to do it in 30 – 45 minutes.
If you are travelling by road figure on 6 – 8 hours.
I will take a ferry at 6:30 am 8/26.
Is this ferry departure on time?
I read on this page “fill up and than leave”
I booked car in thammachat pier at 7:00am 8/26 .
I am worried about being delayed ferry.
The ferry usually leaves around 06:30 – 06:40. Just tell the driver you will take the first ferry off Koh Chang. He will wait for you if it is late.
Hi,
Will I sail from Leam Ngop to Bang Bao?
No. There aren’t any boats to Bangbao. The ferries go to piers in the northeast of Koh Chang. As that’s the closest point on the island to the mainland.
How long does it take to get from TDX to the ferry and what is best way to get there?
It is about 20 minutes drive from the airport to the main ferry pier. If you are staying on koh Chang, just take the Bangkok Airways minibus service from the airport to your hotel. See: http://tratairportguide.com/ for information
Hello
Do we have to book a ticket before taking the boat ? Or we can take any one ?
Tickets can’t be booked in advance. You buy tickets when you get to the pier, before you get on the boat.
Hello! Is there a bus, taxi, or car service from Trat Ferry that goes directly to Nakhon Ratchasima?
You could take a private transfer. Or if you want to go by bus you will have to go to Trat or Chanthaburi and take a bus from there. It takes a long time, so leave Koh Chang early morning.
Hello
I need to go back to bangkok the 24th of june. Can you tell me wich ferry i qhould take (what time in low season) to catch the 10h30 buq going from thammachat pier to bangkok?
Thank you
Camille
Take the main ferry – Ferry Koh Chang from Ao Sapporot pier.
There isn’t a fixed timetable, so if you’re at the pier around 9.15am, you’ll be able to get to the mainland in time.
What is the QUICKEST way to get from the ferry to Pattaya? I assume hiring a taxi
– if so can you give an idea of which ferry port would be easier to get a taxi? Paid 3,500 baht for taxi from Pattaya to Ao Thammachat ferry last week and found it convenient and saved time which is extremely important to me. Thank you!
Yes, going by car is the quickest way.
Hi, please can I have some advice on the following? We are leaving BangBao Beach in Ko Chang on Saturday 17th November and we need to be at Trat airport for a flight that leaves at 13.10. Please can yoi advise what time it would be best to arrive at the ferry ports? Also, which pier? Ao Thammachat or Ao Sapporot? Many thanks, Emily
The easy way is to take the Bangkok Airways minibus which they run for their passengers. Ticket price is 500 Baht per person including ferry ticket. It will pick you up about 09:00. Book at TratAirportGuide.com
Thanks, do you mean pick up from the accommodation or the ferry port on Ko Chang at 9am please?
The minibus picks people up from their hotels. Not from the pier. Please read the website I gave you for more information.
Pick up from your hotel
Is there a Lost and found there?
I Lost a document in the ferry yesterday.
You can contact the ticket office at the pier and they can get someone to check.
Are the normal timetables also valid during thai new year?
Boats will run more frequently at busy times and will also run later if a lot of people are waiting to get to the island.
Hello,
I want to go from Koh Chang to Chanthaburi. Could you please tell me at which pier there is public transport or minibus to Chanthaburi.
Thank you very much.
Luise
You can take a minibus to CHanthaburi from Ao Thammachat pier on the mainland.
Hello, I am driving to Koh Chang on April 13 and leave on April 15, the SongKran festival,
April 13 is Friday, but before Songkran festival.
Will my car wait too long ?
what is the peak hour?
I am driving from Battaya, I can arrive the pier before 930 am.
thanks.
If you get to the ferry before 10:00 on 13 April then you won’t have to wait a long time for a boat. It will get very busy late morning and in the afternoon when most people arrive.
Hi,
Can we just turn up on the day and book onto a ferry or do we need to book in advance?
Thank you!
Ferry tickets can’t be booked in advance. Buy them when you arrive at the pier.
Hello! I arrive at Trat Airport on Friday, March 23, 2018 at 5:45 pm. When will the last ferry to Koh Chang leave on Friday, March 23, 2018? Is there enough time for me to catch the ferry? Thanks for infromation, Harald
The ferries will run at the usual times. Take the minibus from Trat Airport to your hotel on Koh Chang. You won’t have any problem getting to Koh Chang the same evening. See: https://tratairportguide.com/transport-to-koh-chang/ for details
Hello Dears,
I have a Question. I know the latest Ferry is leaving around 19:00pm.
My Question is, our Flight to BKK is arriving approximately at 15:00pm. Can we catch on the same Day with a Private Car-Transportation the last Ferry, or is it better to stay the Night over in BKK an going on the next Morning.
It is better to stay the night in Bangkok and next morning come to Koh Chang. You won’t be able to catch the last ferry.
Or take a transfer to a hotel in Trat town or near the pier. And then next morning you can easily come to Koh Chang on your own.
Thank you very much for your quick Reply. I guess like you said, I will stay 1 Night in BKK and enjoy the Street Food and take on the next Morning the first possibilities.
Thanks again.
Greetings Peter
Hi
I am gong to Koh Chang in Aug then Koh Kood, I heard that boat operation between island stops during that time. Is it possible to take feery from Koh Chang back to mainland Trat and then get the boat from there to Koh Kood? Many thanks!
K
Correct – you cant go direct from Koh Chang to Koh Kood. So you have to take a boat back to the mainland at Laem Ngop and then take a taxi to laem Sok pier, for boats to Koh Kood. It is about 40Km away.
We will be arriving on sunday 4th of feb later than 7pm. From high pier do we have the chance to cross from the mainland over to koh chang after 7pm?
The last ferry is at 19:30 from Centrepoint pier.
Or you might be able to arrange for someone to take you in a private boat to Koh Chang. That will be around 3,500 Baht.
Hie !
I want to leave Koh Chang to go to Thammachat Pier. Is there any ferry who does that?
Yes. Ferry Koh Chang runs from Ao Thammachat to Ao Sapporot on Koh Chang. See the map & information on this site.
How to get from the Ao Sapporot pier, Koh Chang to our Hotel in Bang Bao (Yuyu Golden Beach)? Is it better to arrange the Transfer from BKK by taxi including the drop off at the Resort? Or to arrange it by ourselves when landing on the Pier? And if so do you know how Long it will tak and what are the costs?
Thank u so much in advance!
When you get off the ferry, take one of the white pick up truck taxis that you will see waiting for passengers. It is about 150 – 200 Baht per person to Klong Kloi beach. It will take about an hour.
Hi! Is it possible to catch the 10 am flight from Trat to Bangkok if we are staying at Koh Chang? What is the best way to get to Trat airport from Koh Chang and how long does it take? What is the earliest ferry from Chang to Trat?
It is easy to do. Buy tickets for the Bangkok Airways minibus service. It will pick you up about 06:30 – 07:00. See: https://tratairportguide.com/transport-to-koh-chang/ for details.
Hi! What time should we order a transportation to start if we leave from Koh Chang to Trat airport and our flight leaves at 10.00 am?
The shared minibus will pick up from hotels around 06:30 – 07:00. Depending on where you are staying.
Hello,
Is there any private boat from Ao Thammachart, Mainland to Koh Chang? if there is kindly reply as soon as possible. because we will be in Trat about 5:45 in the afternoon (today) and as far as I know that the last trip of the ferry from the Mainland is 6:30. so please help us or give us some advice on how to get to Koh Chang.
Dont’ worry. Just take the Bangkok Airways minibus from Trat Airport to your hotel on Koh Chang. Buy tickets when you land in Trat. The last ferry is at 19:00. Even if your flight is delayed a special ferry will be organised for Bangkok Airways passengers. See tratairportguide.com for more information.
Hi 😉
is there a late ferry on Sunday 21. January 2018 to Koh Chang – because the plane will be in Trat at 18:00?
Thank U!
Uli
The ferry will run the normal schedule. PG307 always lands at 18:00.
Just take the Bangkok Airways minibus from Trat Airport to your hotel on Koh Chang. You won’t miss the ferry. See: tratairportguide.com
Hello! Could you tell me please about 1 st January 2018… Will Ferry busy during day and about 16.00? How it happened earlier? Thanks a lot
It will be busier than normal. But if you are a foot passenger then there won’t be any delays. If you are driving a car then you might have to wait a couple of hours.
February 4, 2018 we are taking taxi from Siem Reap to Cambodian/Thai border then on to Trat (arriving in Trat around 16:30) for a Ferry crossing to Ko Chang. Which Pier would be the most ideal (fastest) for us to leave from in Trat to Ko Chang? Thanks in advance for time and assistance!
The nearest pier is Ao Thammachat, for the Ferry Koh Chang boats. They also have the fastest crossing time to Koh Chang.
Hello Captain
We are going to go to Koh Chang with my car from Bangkok on December 1st.
Do I need to reserve tickets for ferries?
Is the traffic of the car crowded?
Many thanks.
Hi
Tickets cant be booked in advance. The car ferries can get busy on long weekends and in Peak season. But shouldn’t be so busy on 1 December. It’s unlikely you will have to wait a long time for a boat.
Hi
If my flights land at 6pm will I make the last ferry?
Emma
If you take the Bangkok Airways minibus to your hotel on Koh Chang, you definitely won;t miss the last ferry. This can be booked here
Dear Sirs.
We might to land in Trat at 5.45pm on 13th december 2017.
Is it possible to catch ferry? When last one is leaving?
Thank you very much.
Take the Bangkok Airwaus minibus from Trat Airport to your hotel on Koh Chang and you wont miss the ferry. See: https://tratairportguide.com/transport-to-koh-chang/ for details
Hello! i will going to Koh Chang in Nov 1st, 2017. I take the bus from Sihanouk Ville to Trat from 8:00 to 3:00 pm. Do i have enough time to take ferry to Koh Chang? what time do the last ferry leaving pier?
Many thanks!
The last ferries are at 19:00 or 19:30. So you won’t have any problem getting to Koh Chang the same day.
do the ferries sail on sundays ???
Yes. They sail 365 days a year. If they didn’t, people couldn’t get to the island.
Hello Captain!
We are planning to travel to Koh Chang on 26 October 2017. Knowing this is a public holiday for the Kings Funeral, is there an expectation of big queues or fewer ferries running?
We are going to the island for a wedding so would like to be prepared ?
Many thanks
The ferry companies havent announced any change to services. But as there won’t be many Thais travelling in the afternoon – when the cremation is on TV – there might be fewer boats simply due to lack of demand. But you’ll still get here without any problems.
Thank you Captain ?
Hello,
So in August the first ferry will leave mainland at 6h30 for sure ?
Thank you.
It will be about 06:30.
Hello i wonder if the ferry will go from Koh Chang today?
Yes it will.
Hi Captain. If I arrive after 19:30, Is there any way to catch a boat to the Sinthiya Tree Koh Chang Resort on the island?
You would have to take a private boat. That would be around 3,500 Baht. You would need to arrange it in advance. Then a driver to pick you up from the pier on Koh Chang and take you to Santhiya Tree Resort will be around 1,000 Baht.
How do you get from Koh Chang back to Bangkok?
There are several ways:
Fly on Bangkok Airways from Trat
Take a public bus or minibus from Ao Thammachat ferry pier
Book tickets for a private shared minibus form any tour agent on Koh Chang
Take a private transfer by car
Hello,
next month we will take a taxi from Siem Reap to Cambodia/Thai Border and then a taxi to the ferry. Which pier should we choose? I think we will arrive at arround 11am/12 noon.
The taxi driver will drop us off at the ferry so we have to take again a taxi at Koh Chang to the hotel. Which ferry would you recommend? It is not a problem to find a shuttle from Koh Chang – Hotel or?
Thanks
Jennifer
Ideally go to Ao Thammachat – for Ferry Koh Chang as they have more frequent sailings and faster crossing time.
When you get to Koh Chang take one of the shared pick up truck taxis that you will see waiting for passengers. They’ll drop you off at your hotel.
Where is better/ cheaper to rent a bike for 3 days? In Trat and go with it by Ferry to Ko Chang or directly on the Ko Chang close to the pier if there are any possibility to rent ? How much does it cost ? After 3 days on Jo Chang we go to Pattaya. Where we can take a bus ? Trat, pier or Ko Chang? What are the prices and time schedule?
Many thanks in advance!
you can rent a scooter at both ferry piers on Koh Chang. Buy tickets for a minibus from Koh Chang to Pattaya when you are on the island from any tour agent. Or you can take a minibus from Ao Thammachat ferry pier on the mainland. I dont know the timetable. Check before you take the ferry to Koh Chang
Is there a way to reach Ko Chang after 19:00… I’m arriving with a private car around 20:00 on Tuesday February 7th?
It’s sometimes possible to find people in Laem Ngop who’ll bring you to the island at night. You’ll have to leave your car on the mainland. I think about 3,000 Baht for the boat. Then you’ll need someone to pick you up when you reach Koh Chang. As there won’t be any taxis at the piers.
Much easier to stay in Trat & next morning come to the island.
Hello,
At what time is the last ferry from Koh Chang to Trat tomorrow please ? Thank you, Kind regards
Hi,
Our plane Bangkok Airways landa 18:00. Is there any Ferry that we can take about that time to Koh Chang?
Just take the minibus from Trat Airport to your hotel on Koh Chang, you wont have any problems getting to Koh Chang the same evening. The last ferry is at 19:00. See: Tratairportguide.com/transport-to-koh-chang/ for details
Hello,
I want to go to Ko Chang on Thursday from bangkok. But I am not sure yet what time I can leave. Maybe at 13.15 from the Bus Terminal in Ekkamai with a public bus. Can I still get the last ferry then? I am not sure how long it takes to get to the port. Does the last ferry leave at 7pm?
Thanks in advance,
Julia
Assuming there aren’t any delays, you should still be able to get to Centrepoint pier in time for the last boat at 19:30. The bus will go to Trat, form there take a pick up truck taxi to the pier.
Hello,
In a few days I’d like to take a bus from Ekkamai bus station in Bangkok (999 goverment bus) to Koh Chang. Do you know if I can buy tickets in advance?
Hi Robert. I haven’t seen anywhere where you can buy them online. But you can buy tickets from the ticket office at the bus station itself in advance.
Good Morning,
I have flight from BKK Suvarnabumi at 1.35am on Jan 16, at what time is better to leave hotel in Ko Chang, I have private transfer.
Thanks
It depends on where you are staying on Koh Chang and which ferry your driver will use. But if you leave around 16:00 then you should be at the airport for 22:00 – 22:30
Dear Sir/Madam,
I would like to know if we arrive around 18:00 at Trat airport, is there a possibility to get to Ko Chang? I don’t think we will be on time for the 19:00 boat, is there a private boat we can get to the island?
Thank you!
Hi Takew the bangkok Airways minibus from Trat to your hotel on Koh Chang. Ticket price is 500 Baht / person or you can book in advance cheaper at tratairportguide.com
Hi there,
We expect to arrive by plane from BKK at Trat airport on December 30th at around 18h00 with our family of five people. Will I make the last ferry to Koh Chang?
You’ll have no problem getting to Koh Chang the same evening. Just take the minibus run by Bangkok Airways for their passengers. Ticket price is 500 Baht per person including ferry ticket. Or you can book tickets cheaper in advance here
Hi! We land at Trat AirPort 18:00 and see that the last ferry is at 19:00 to Koh Chang, is it still possible to get there the same night? In that case, how?
Yes, take the minibus run by Bangkok Airport for their passengers. You’re guaranteed to get here the same evening. See http://iamkohchang.com/getting-here/private-transfers-prices.html or TratAirportguide.com for details
Hi,
when do the ferries leave from Koh Chang to Trat in March 2017?
Thanks in advance for your efforts.
Same time as they do now. The schedules haven’t changed in the past decade.
Hi.
Is it possible to be picked up in Rayong when going to a hotel on Koh Chang on the 22nd of Dec? And again being picked up on 28th going from Koh Chang to Bangkok?
Yes. See: http://iamkohchang.com/getting-here/private-transfers-prices.html for details of private transfers
We land at Trat Airport at 6 pm 1.1.2017. This seems very tight to catch the last ferry and I am very concerned about it.
Will we make it through baggage claim, customs and transfer to get the ferry on time?
Yes. If you take the Bangkok Airways minibus service. See tratairportguide.com for details.
Can you get public transportation to Ferry Koh Chang Pier ( Ao Thammachat pier ) from anywhere in TRAT city centre?
The picks up truck taxis leave from near the indoor market in the centre of Trat & also the bus station.
Hello,
On thursday 18th of August we (5 persons) will arrive by Bangkok airways plane in Trat at 18.10. What is the best way to catch the last ferry to Koh Chang (i’ve read 19.30) and to which mainland ferry should we go in order to have some flexibility in delay (if any) ?
Thanks.
Take the minibus that is run by Bangkok Airways for their passengers. You will get dropped off at your hotel. Buy tickets when you land in Trat – or it is cheaper to book online.
I fly from Don Meung Airport at 6pm, what time should i leave Koh Chang to catch that flight?
Take one of the morning minibuses to Suvarnabhumi Airport. They pick up from hotels on Koh Chang around 08:00 – 09:00. You’ll get there around 3-3.30pm. Then take the free shuttle bus from Suvarnabhumi to Don Meuang Airport.
Or if that’s cutting it too close, take the Suvarnabhumi Burupha minibus at around 06:15 – 06:30 from Koh Chang to Suvarnabhumi.
Buy tickets from pretty much any tour agent on the island.
Hello there.
Im goi g to Ko Chang tomorrow and i will arrive at don maeung airport in bangkok at 13h. Whats the best way to go to Ko Chang? Do you thing i have time to get tge ferry? Thank you very much
The only way you’d get here the same day is take a taxi or private transfer. There aren’t any buses or minibuses from Don Meuang Airport to Trat or Koh Chang.
In your answer to Lena which you gave on April 27, 2015 at 1:13 am you discussed the mini buses from Bangkok International Suvarnabhumi airport which you stated actually will take you all the way to the hotels on Koh Chang. I have two questions. First, is one of the hotels the “Sea View Resort and Spa?” And second, do I need an advance reservation for the mini bus or will there be enough buses so that I can just go over to Entrance 8 of the First Floor of the airport and take a bus to my hotel whenever I show up- probably in the mid morning? Thank you for your information.
The minibuses now drop people off at a makeshift bus station in the north of Koh Chang. From there passengers take a pick up truck taxi to their hotels. This might be a permanent arrangement or might be temporary – no-one knows at the moment.
Minibus tickets can’t be booked in advance. If it’s busy extra buses will be provided. If it isnt then there will be just one minibus and if that’s full, you have to wait for the next one. Currently there’s a big bus at 07:50 and minibuses at 11:00 and 14:00.
Good afternoon,
We would like to visit Ko Chang for the weekend, however, we still have class till 1 PM. Is it doable to catch the latest boat if we leave Rangsit area, Bangkok at 1.30 PM?
What time is your laters ferry going?
We are with a group of 20 people, is it maybe possible to arrange a ferry around 8 PM?
Thanks in advance.
If you drive quickly you’ll be able to catch the last ferry at 19:30 from Centrepoint.
I don’t think the ferry companies are going to run a special boat for you unless you pay a lot of money. You’ll have to contact them.
Hi

The minibuses seat 9 people maximum plus luggage. But if it’s busy more than one minibus is used.
Hi, we will be arriving in Bangkok airport at 2:30 p.m. is it too late to catch the last ferry to Ko Chang when we take the minibus from the airport?
The last minibus from Suvarnabhumi Airport to Koh Chang is at 14:00. So you wont get to Koh Chang the same day if you are landing at 14:30 unless you fly on Bangkok Airways flight PG307 to Trat.
Hi,
We are currently scheduled to arrive Saturday, January 23 but may arrive too late for the 7pm ferry. I read somewhere that there are ferries on Fridays and Saturdays at 9pm. Is that true?
Only if it’s very busy. And they will be from Centrepoint pier. But cant guarantee it. The last ferry from Centrepoint is usually 19:30

Our plane lands at Trat Airport at 18.00 25/11/15. Are we pushing it to catch the last Koh Chang Ferry ferry or should we go for other one>
Take the airport minibus to your hotel on Koh Chang. tickets can be booked in advance here You’re guaranteed to get to Koh Chang the same evening.
Hi,
I’m a tourist who will explore Koh Chang. Is there any transportation centre from Bangkok international airport to the pier by Koh Chang Ferry by bus or minivan?
Thanks
Hi Lena
There are minibuses form the airport to hotels on koh Chang. That’s the easiest way to get here and you’ll be dropped off at your hotel. Go to Entrance 8 on the First Floor of the airport terminal. There you’ll see the Suvarnabhumi Burupha minibus counter. Ticket price is 600 Baht including ferry ticket. First minibus is at 0750, last is at 14:00.
hello, can i ask a question?
is it enough time for us to get on the boat form Suvarnabhumi Burupha to KOH CHANG by taking the minibus at 14;00?
Yes, you’ll get here. The minibus uses the Centrepoint ferry. You will be on the last ferry at 19:30 without any problem.
