Chiang Rai to Nakhon Ratchasima Destination Reviews

LG
We left about 20 minutes late but we arrived on time which I find surprising because I travel Thailand quite a bit on buses and they're always late but I plan my trips around that. There was a person on the bus to make sure everything was okay and everybody was comfortable. We had a food voucher when we stopped we had a little bit of Thai food the seats were comfortable and the temperature was comfortable
