About Nor Neane Transport

The two principal things which make travelling by van so attractive are a wide choice of destinations and affordable prices. Not all vans offer top comfort, enough legroom, or luggage space, but these two points compensate. Besides, it is always vans that launch new routes to emerging destinations paving the road to big bus operators if necessary or remaining the only means of transport to bring you there. Very often, vans offer faster service than big buses, more flexible timetable, and more readily adapt to travellers’ needs in the sense of schedule – if there is a temporary growth in demand due to long weekends or national holidays, vans add more vehicles to their daily fleet easier than other operators. Note though that sometimes vans operate from their own van stations or terminals or have a dedicated section in bigger bus terminals. Always check your van's departure and arrival point as it is not necessarily located at the main bus station.

Nor Neane Transport is one of the operators to check if you are going to travel by van. They provide reliable van service and offer tickets with easy and secure online booking.

Nor Neane Transport Ticket Prices & Van Classes

Opposite to trains or bigger buses, vans rarely offer you a choice of ticket class. All the seats are the same – call it standard, VIP, or whatever. What can differ, though, is the type of the van itself. Some vans seat only 9-10 passengers. For travellers this means wider seats, more space, and a more comfortable trip. Vans which accommodate up to 15 passengers are also ok but be ready to sacrifice on space for your legs and elbows and very often – for your luggage, too. Sometimes it can be a good idea to buy two seats instead of one to ensure a more comfortable ride – yet it pays to check with the operator if they allow this on your route. Before you book your van ticket, read reviews on Nor Neane Transport van service to see what to expect.

Travel by Van: Pros & Cons

Pros of VanTravel

  • Vans can be the only way to reach some of the most remote destinations, smaller towns or villages which are connected neither by big buses nor trains.
  • Vans can also take you to some islands connected with the mainland by large car ferries which do not take big buses but take vans on board, too.
  • Due to a smaller size compared to big buses, vans are more maneuverable on the road. It sometimes results in shorter travel time, especially if your destination is not far away.
  • While vans do have an official stop enroute, they can also get you off at a more convenient point – no need to go to the terminal, just ask your driver. Note that it is not always possible, but in many cases, they will cooperate. It can save you both time and money you would have otherwise spent getting off the terminal on foot or by taxi.

Cons of Van Travel

  • Vans accommodating more passengers may feel quite cramped. Expect limited space for your legs and elbows. Some vans limit the luggage for one ticket to one piece. If you have more bags, suitcases, or backpacks, you may be asked to buy a separate ticket for your luggage, which makes the trip twice as expensive.
  • Not all vans run on schedule. On certain routes, vans leave only when full. Do check it with your operator before buying your ticket, otherwise, you may end up waiting much longer than expected until the van fills up.
  • If there are more reckless drivers on any other means of transport than on vans, we are unaware of it. Some companies install speed control units on their vehicles, but it is not a rare case to hear this unit beeping the whole trip through with the driver not paying attention to it. Always remember to buckle your seatbelt while travelling by van. Though sometimes you will need to make an investigation to find out where your seatbelt is.
  • For those prone to motion sickness there is a good piece of advice: take your medicine half an hour before your van trip, especially if your route includes winding stretches. You are more likely to feel motion sick travelling by van than by bus.

Nor Neane Transport Company Reviews

The ride was good, the problem is that people had bags that were too big and would be taking space where our legs should be.

The driver was friendly and the bus stop there I wanted.

The driver didn't seem to appreciate that seats had been paid for to accommodate luggage. In fact, he had the seats of a tourist who had paid for them removed. Half an hour later, we realized that this was to allow other passengers to board the train, who were waiting at the side of the road.

If you’re staying in bkk center and trying to get to Pranburi it’s definitely the easiest and cheapest option, however once the bus gets past the greater Bangkok area it starts stopping to let people on or off very frequently. This adds a lot of extra time to the journey. We planned to take it all the way to Pranburi but decided to get out at Hua Hin because we had enough of the stopping. It took nearly 5 hours to get to Hua Hin from Ekamai. We also paid for an extra ticket for a bag and were asked to show that to the ticket lady at the desk, but then the bus driver was confused why we had 3 tickets for 2 people and put our bag in the luggage hold… so I’m unsure if you actually need to buy another ticket. It’s also worth noting that if you get off in Pranburi and don’t have a taxi or lift already arranged you might struggle to get to Pak Nam Pran if that’s where you’re heading. We managed to get a Grab from Hua Hin to our hotel in Pak Nam Pran for about 350b. Overall, I think if you’re traveling in a group more than 2 people you might as well just book a Bolt.

Punctual and fast all in all... But old van with inconvenient plastic seats which make you sweat. Many stops to drop off people but no stop for toilet. My friend was charged 200 Baht though his baggage was not oversized.

The car was very run down. Terrible suspensjon and seats worn out. This car belongs in the scrapyard! I have driven this route many times before, but this was by far the worst minivan I have ever been in. By the wa, I took the minivan leaving at 12.00 not 13.00.

I’d say it was okay since we were able to be dropped off at Ekkamai safely and earlier than the intended time. Maybe it’s just a mishap on my part but my thinking was that the seats were already pre-booked and the minibus would leaving Hua Hin filled with passengers. However, this was not the case. The minibus had multiple stops along the way. It was alright and I had no issues with it but we were just surprised that this was the case. The bus was kinda old as well and the aircon was not as cool as it should so it got a little uncomfortable because of the heat. The seats were also uncomfortable as the ride progressed. The driver however, was friendly and amicable and dropped us safely to our destination which made up for the whole trip.

I don't really understand why we need to arrive 1h before departure time if we book in advance online. I booked a 7am trip, arrived at 6.30am at the van station, and the van was already full. 2nd time it happens to me, annoying to wake up at 5am, to ride 6km by bicycle, for not having space in the trip you booked online (and paid for!)... Anyway, I waited for an hour and arrived safe in Hua hin, the trip only takes around 3hours, instead of the 4h hours announced ;)

This ride was actually smooth and nice. Very nice driver. Unlike what they write in the reservation, you don't need to buy an extra sit for your suitcase. If your backpack or suitcase are normal sized, they will find a place for them. The AC was a little weak, but ok.

Good way to travel from bkk to Hua Hin! Cheap and decent bus, and it took less than 4hours. One stop along the way so you could go to the toilet.

Very good trip, we were even able to leave before the booked time,???? as we arrived too early at the meeting point. You have to be among the first to board if there are two of you, otherwise you risk being separated, especially if the bus is full from the start. The seats at the back were more spacious but a little less comfortable for my taste..... but I was rocked as a result I was able to sleep.???? There was 1 restroom for anyone who wanted it. And the bus made several stops on the road to pick up people. Overall good.

Had to buy 2 seats to carry my suitcase, turns out there was plenty of space anyways..the back seat has some rough suspension under it and half way through the trip the aircon stopped working! The driver pulled over, made some calls then just had us open all the windows..brutal journey all in all and I won't do it again. Use the VIP airport service as I did on the way here..far better and worth the cost!

Language barrier made it a bit difficult to find the bus, and we had to get a ticket at the station, so we could not just board. Of course, they didn't charge us but insisted we get a ticket to board.

It did the job of getting me from point A to point B. However, it did not stop or drop off people at the 'final' bus stop because it did not exist. It was confusing and the driver was not helpful when we clearly missed the 'final' stop. Main stops/attractions need to be established along the main road in Hua Hin for those that don't read or speak Thai.

You get what you pay for. The first hour was wasted because of 5 stops before even leaving the city limits, which was followed by another 5-6 stops en route to Bangkok. The seats are very uncomfortable. That said, it gets you from A to B at a affordable price. Would I book it again? Probably not.

Either left 30mins late or 30mins early, I am not sure. However, it was completed packed and no place to put any luggage. Our minivan was due to depart at 11am. Arrived at Ekkamai at 10:30am and there was a van just departing. Ours left at 11:30am and I am sure there was both 11am and 12 noon passengers onboard. If you have large luggage, I understand why you have to pay for another seat because there isn't any storage areas. Minivans not in the best condition. Drivers, whilst professional in their driving but not in appearance. I think I would book a private minivan next time and pay the extra, especially if more than one person.

The exact location of the minivan station is ambiguous. Confusingly there is another much more obvious bus station, maybe 50 meters away. I enquired at the bus station but was met with incomprehension until I mentioned Ekkamai.

Pick up point was just below Ekkamai station, was very easy to find. The bus left on time as well, although we reached slightly earlier just to be safe. The journey to Hua Hin was smooth as well, 4 hours drive with 1 pit stop.

The bus was clean and comfortable, but the journey took almost 3 and a half hours and they never stopped and let passengers use the restroom. It was too long of a journey for us without a bathroom break, and made the second part of the ride pretty uncomfortable.

The van driver was an absolute racist dirt bag, rude to foreigners regardless how fluent in Thai or polite you were. Definitely would recommend passing this on to the company if they value foreign customers. Wanted to slap him numerous times.

Departure late because the driver was waiting for a parcel to be delivered on the way. In fact, he even delivered a dozen packages on the way, so he had to stop every time ... Driving like a hit-and-run driver trying to catch up, not at all friendly. Nothing to do with the VIP service offered by the company.

Confirmation via email was quick and helpful! Bus left on time and arrived on time as well! The end station doesn't exist anymore, but the bus stops on request. There is not so much leg space, so if you are tall it is not so comfortable, so I wouldn't book for longer trips.
