TLDR : Answer Summary
Traveling from Kanchanaburi to Phetchaburi can be done via several modes of transportation. Visitors can choose to rent a car, which takes about two hours, or opt for a bus from Mochit's terminal that might take around seven hours. A taxi ride offers comfort for a faster journey but is more expensive, typically around 1,600 baht. For a unique experience, some commenters humorously suggest using a helicopter. Additionally, minivans bound for Hua Hin might serve as a viable option, but they may not reach the town center directly. Overall, the choice depends on budget, time, and personal preference.

MANY van services daily of bus. Around 140 baht.grab will run you about 1,600. Van/bus will take you to van/bus station downtown Phetchaburi City at Big C.

Hi, take the Hua Hin bound minivan, it probably won't take you to the town center but nearby.

A journey begins at dawn's first light,

From Kanchanaburi, a traveler takes flight.

Through routes that twist and tales that weave,

To Phetchaburi, a tapestry they'll achieve.

By car they may choose to swiftly drive,

On roads 323 and 4, they come alive.

A distance of miles, one hundred forty-four,

In just over two hours, they'll reach the shore.

But if rails and tales are what they seek,

The train's rhythm offers a journey unique.

From station to station, the tracks align,

In four hours' time, the end of the line.

For those who wander, a bus they can catch,

From Mochit's terminal, a plan they'll hatch.

Through Bangkok's pulse, the journey extends,

Seven hours in transit, till Phetchaburi beckons.

Yet, if one desires the road less traveled by,

A taxi's comfort they cannot deny.

Two hours to glide, across landscapes vast,

A private ride, memories that last.

Choose your vessel, set your pace,

Each path offers its own embrace.

Kanchanaburi to Phetchaburi, a journey fair,

In the Land of Smiles, adventures to share.

Go to the bus station, check the price of the local bus and the schedule.  open the Grab app and check the price to take you there and show it to one of the taxi drivers who hangs out around the bus station. Choose.
