Makki travel

Makki Travel is the kind of no‑nonsense ticket desk Khao San relies on when plans change fast. Pop in to sort the essentials: buses and minivans up north, bus‑and‑ferry combos for the islands, and easy day trips when you need a Bangkok breather. The team speaks clear English and will walk you through timings, pick‑ups, and what to expect so you don’t end up guessing at a 6am pier. Expect the classic Khao San menu: same‑day seats to Ayutthaya and Kanchanaburi, floating market and railway market runs, and overnight routes to the east coast and the Gulf. Typical prices in this area are straightforward—minivans to Ayutthaya from around 200–300 THB, and bus+ferry to Koh Tao or Koh Phangan in the 1,100–1,400 THB range—so you can benchmark quickly and book with confidence. They’ll bundle hotel pick‑ups where it makes sense and print your itinerary so you’re not scrolling through screenshots at the station. Go earlier in the day if you want same‑day departures (seats dry up after 5pm), and leave a little buffer before long holiday weekends when Bangkok empties to the beaches. Cash is fastest, but most agencies in this pocket can take cards with a small surcharge. Handy, efficient, and cut to the chase—exactly what you want from a Khao San travel shop.
