Bangkok to Kaengkrachan National Park - driver or mini-van service?

Hi Guys,
I’m going to Kaengkrachan National Park in Phetchaburi next week and need a private taxi/mini-van service. The destination is about 3 hours south-west from my departure in BKK.
I’d normally work out cheaper bus/train options upon arrival in BKK, but no time to do this… I am sure there’s be drivers around Khao-san Rd who would do this, but I’d like a recommendation.
Do you know of a good driver, or a shared mini-van service that operates this route? I have emailed my hotel but am still awaiting a reply…
I have one quote of 3000 baht, (AUD$120) but this seems expensive if the transport website below is a reliable indication.

I would really appreciate any help.
Thanks!

No shared van would go unless organised tour. Organised tours would operate from Hua Hin I would think but not Bangkok. From Bangkok hiring a car and self driving would be the best option if you are a good driver. If not go stay in Hua Hin and do a tour.

I agree hiring a car or pickup is your best bet
But ....
Budget and I believe some other rental companies offer a driver service too.
I think 3k is a bit much.........is that just for the trip out from Bkk?

A car with driver would likely cost 2700 to 3000 baht.
