Next time if I come again I will buy a 48 hour ticket so that I can visit all the places. I am very happy. - The bus was very safe and he took me to beautiful places. It was worth it for me. If I have a chance, I will use Elephant bus tours again.

Nice way to explore the city - One of the best way to explore the city in 1 day. The bus has 6 languages audio guide. Also there is out door and indoor section. The indoor section has airconditioner, which helps a lot.

My first experience with my daughter - We are fun and excited. Pattaya sea is beautiful. And we sat all the way. It was a long 3-hour ride. The bus returned to us in terminal 21 Pattaya. Convenient to travel to many points. No need to drive yourself to be tired. I'm impressed.

Elephant Tour - Trip left at Gate 1 Terminal 21 mall. Since it was earlier than when the mall opened up there was no stand or anything or someone indicating that they were from the elephant bus . Eventually there was someone sitting on the steps that was from them. When the mall opens up there is a stand in the mall. They were quite helpful as Viator usually sends tickets via email but I could not open them up and I did not remember my password. Hence one time login but that did not work either kept on timing out finally third time it worked but they helped me out. Quite a good tour but the volume has to be higher and the music interludes have to be less volume. My husband could not hear. Quite informative but since it only runs from 1030 to 530 you can only go to one thing . We decided on the tropical garden. We sat outside at 250 pm waiting and no bus came till a one hour and a half later. Tried the app to see where bus was but was only showing the bus not moving at all. Was starting to get worried then it came and did not offer a stop at the outlet mall just went straight to terminal 21 as it was late. By that time I guess it was the last run. It should start earlier or go later. Overall it was a good experience. You could stay inside in air conditioned area or go outside and sit.

You don't really need this with ride apps - While i won't say this type of bus tours are bad, you can actually save a lot of time taking Grab or Bolt. Because of the fixed route, what needed about 30 min to get to, became almost 1.5 hrs. Brings you to south pattaya and the famous tropical garden.

Driver left us behind - We went to the floating market. Driver left us behind even though we were waiting where we had been dropped off. We had to take a taxi

Skip Pattaya City Sightseeing Bus - We were very disappointed with this activity for a day excursion on a cruise ship stop in Laem Chebang. We purchased tickets in advance for the Pattaya City Sightseeing Hop-on/Hop-off bus for 24 hours. We purchased a transfer from our ship, which dropped us off at the Central Mall at about 8:30 in the morning, where we planned to exchange our vouchers for tickets and get on the Red Line bus. Once at the company ticket counter on the north entrance of the mall, we were told the Red Line operates once an hour, with 10 stops, and the blue line normally operates every 1-1/2 hours with 14 stops. The Red Line departed stop 1, the City Sightseeing Bus Hub on the hour, every hour until 17:00. Because the Blue Line had only one bus operating, it was actual on a 3-hour schedule departing the Hub only three times, at 9:30, 12:30, and 15:30. Additionally, there were only two common stops between the Red and Blue Lines: stop 1 Hub, the vacant bus parking lot with a public bathroom (and NOTHING ELSE), and stop 2, the beautiful and huge Terminal 21 shopping mall with plenty of stores, restaurants and bathrooms. The Red Line circuit took about 40 minutes to complete, stopping and waiting at the stop 1 Hub for 20 minutes before every hour. There was nothing to do or see anywhere nearby but use the free, public toilets. Since there were only three circuits of the Blue Line, and we missed the first 9:30 start, we would have had to wait almost 3 hours, from 9:40 to 12:30, in a bus parking lot to catch the next Blue Line at stop 1. Instead we waited 20 minutes to take the 10:00 Red Line to stop 2, then walked around the mall until about 12:45 when the next Blue Line bus arrived at stop 2. If we had got off somewhere on the first loop of the Red Line, we would have eventually have caught the 10:00 Red Line, then waited at the stop 1 Hub from 10:40-11:00, then still had to go to the stop 2 Terminal 21 mall to wait 1-1/2 hours for the Blue Line. While on the Blue Line, if we had got off at any stop, we would have had to find something to do for 3 hours, and made sure we caught the last Blue Line bus (15:30 circuit) to arrive back at stop 1 Hub at about 18:00. We couldn’t do that as we had tickets to a cabaret show at 18:00. Because of the awkward timing of the two routes, and the use of only one Blue Line bus, it effectively became a sightseeing bus with no realistic opportunity for hop-on/hop-off use. The multi-language recorded narrative commonly available on City Sightseeing bus around the world was informative and interesting, but the music between narrations was too loud, requiring you to constantly turn the sound up and down. I recommend you skip this as an option for a day tour of Pattaya and surrounding areas and consider other tours or just hiring a local taxi.
