Getting Around Lop Buri
Flag down any blue-and-white songthaew heading south on Narai Maharat Road; tell the driver 'Windsor Resort' — they'll drop you at the entrance on the left. No fixed stops, just wave.
Get off at the bus stop on Phaholyothin Road near the Lop Buri intersection, then walk or take a motorcycle taxi 1.5 km north to Windsor Resort — saves 20 minutes walking through town.
Negotiate a flat fare to the resort before getting in; metered taxis with motorway tolls often cost 200–300 THB less.
Board a third-class ticket (20–35 THB) for a rattly but memorable ride — bring a fan or seat cushion in summer; from Lop Buri station, a local songthaew runs south on Narai Maharat Road to the resort for about 10 THB.
