Hat Yai Travel from Penang to Hat Yai
Posted: Wed July 11, 2007 10:02 AM UTC
Hi

Can anyone help me with locating a bus or train service to Hat Yai from Penang.
Would like to travel this coming Saturday and return on Monday.

I read about minivans going there, heard its a little on the cramp side with 10 people in the van. Can anyone who has tried the minivan share their experience? Thanks much.

Avoid train travelling in the Southern part of Thailand. These couple of years, there are a lot terrorism going on...and trains are one of their targets. So my suggestion is only take a "tourist bus", you can buy a ticket from Chaw Wang Hotel (Opposite Moh Ka Suay), it costs around 200 Baht and takes 4-5 hours. For a little more luxuriuos option, contact Lucky Tour, the ticket is something around 350 Baht.
