After passing through customs, there will be a sign with your name on it between gates 3 and 4. Confirm with the on-site staff and wait about 15 minutes for the driver to bring the car over. The staff will take you to meet the driver, who provides excellent service.

The driver arrived 30 minutes early to wait for us. The vehicle was clean, and the service was fast and efficient. Although there was traffic congestion on Rama II Road due to roadworks, the driver remained professional and arrived in Bangkok earlier than expected. TTD's chartered car is definitely the best choice for your trip to Hua Hin! 🥳

as driver or i were not familiar with the location of attraction at khao kho sometimes we wasted time driving to and fro to the places. although we were shy of 5-10mins from driver work hours of 12 h, he requested the surcharge of thb 300 which we did not argue and gave to him. as he drove up the windy road in the dark took it as an effort for his hard work. he was punctual and no issue by google translate our needs.skillful driving too

Highly recommend to book thru this agency, AK Go Tour. Was comparing my previous experience with another agency, this though a bit more x but you are greeted with tip top service and assurance. Agency emailed the day before to confirm the itinerary and see driver details. The driver, Mr Piyawit is highly recommended for his 6 stars service. Called us to tell us where to meet him at the airport. Though he is also new to Khao Kho like us, he would do his research and explained to us the places we visit. Very adaptable to the plan and at the temple, he even shared with us the Thai stories, see photo. Overall, a wonderful experience at Khao Kho. Long ride but worth the travel to experience cool weather, nice scenery.
