Hat Yai Southern Local Van & Songthaew Route Information

Songthaews (literally meaning “two rows,” referring to their seating arrangement) are converted pickup trucks that operate like local buses on fixed routes around Hat Yai and into nearby towns. They are open-air, budget-friendly, and form the backbone of local transportation. Vans supplement songthaew services especially for longer distances by providing express, air-conditioned services.
