The bus ride went very well, but the instruction to arrive 30 min before the trip was unnecessary. The bus arrived at the time it was said to leave and we just had to show the pdf ticket and board. No problems at all :)

Safe ride, many stop for VIP service. The driver drove carefully when it was raining during part of the drip. The dampers and tyres were not in best possible condition. The driver stopped over 10 times in the middle in different villages and Chiang Rai suburbs resulting being late approximately 20 minutes. Why don't the guide people who require stops to slower bust type, eg. VX bus that left 30 minutes earlier. The driver did not help with putting baggage to the trunk.
