Travelled on this bus two weeks ago from Hua Hin to Victory Monument.

The fare now is 200 Baht.

Victory Monument terminus is at the foot of the steps up into the BTS station.

It couldn't get any closer if it tried.

It stopped twice - time to drain the spuds and refuel the van.

Second stop to refuel again.

I think it uses the gas not petrol or diesel.

Nice enough journey, took 3 hours. Time was wasted on some people coming to collect an envelope from the Driver.

Did the return trip yesterday. One 'falang' was annoyed because he needed 3 seats and there were 4 and had to wait for the next van. They let me on but not him.

The driver picked up 3 people before exiting HH, Pre-booked obviously.

The seats aren't suited to my tall frame. I would rather wait for the next van than sit at the back. Quick though so bearable.

Poor baby, he had to wait 20 minutes.
Obviously the van company did not realize how important he is.

Unfortunately not Crying or Very sad However, he was probably wearing my sunglasses (disguise), and it was a case of mistaken identity.
