Boat
From the center of Samut Prakan, head to the nearest pier, such as the Praksa Pier. You can take a tuk-tuk or walk, depending on your proximity. Once at the pier, board a boat heading towards the Erawan Museum. The boat ride will provide a scenic view of the river and local life. Get off at the nearest stop to the museum, which is usually announced by the crew.
Public Bus
Locate the nearest bus stop and catch Bus number 511 or 102, which both head towards Bang Muang Mai. Keep an eye on the stops, and ask the driver to drop you off at the Erawan Museum. The museum is a short walk from the bus stop, and you can follow the signs. If unsure, feel free to ask locals for directions.
Tuk-Tuk
From your current location in Samut Prakan, find a tuk-tuk driver or use a ride-hailing app to request a ride to the Erawan Museum. Make sure to show them the museum's address: JHHQ+CH, Tambon Bang Muang Mai, Mueang Samut Prakan District. The ride should take about 15-20 minutes depending on traffic.
