One of the challenges that travellers face when visiting Kanchanaburi and Sai Yok from Bangkok is finding public transport options. Unlike other destinations, these places are not easily accessible through regular booking websites.

Instead, travellers need to use the official website of the State Railway of Thailand (SRT) to book their train tickets.

​

The website is https://www.railway.co.th/Home/Index and it has the option to change the language to English in the grey box at the top.

​

The train is the most scenic and affordable way to travel to Kanchanaburi and Sai Yok, as it passes through historical sites and natural attractions along the way.

The train departs from Thonburi station in Bangkok and stops at many stations including Kanchanaburi and Nam Tok, which is the waterfall in Sai Yok. The train journey takes about 4 hours and costs between 35 and 1100 baht, depending on the class of service.

​

Therefore, if you want to visit Kanchanaburi and Sai Yok from Bangkok, you should plan ahead and book your train tickets online using the SRT website. This way, you can enjoy a comfortable and scenic ride to these beautiful destinations.
