Melissa LThe bus was really comfortable and had snacks, the seats were really spacious. Everything was on time. Overall it was a really good trip!
The reason we knocked off a star was the transfer in the middle of the trip that we didn't know about, so we got rushed off the bus and had to quickly gather our things. Also, all of the announcements were in Thai so we had no idea what was going on. When the operator saw we were the only ones left on the bus he spoke English to tell us to get off, so it was possible that he could have told us when he made the announcement. Otherwise we felt the service was fantastic and have no complaints.
Note to non-Thai speaking folks - when you get to Bangkok Station, you will need to go to a ticket window to get a paper ticket. The window they were trying to direct us to was out in front of the station but this was not obvious with the pointing. You go there first to get a paper ticket, THEN you go out to the bus platform to catch your bus. We almost missed our bus because the area people were pointing at looked like the seats, so we thought we were being told to wait there. We used Google translate but sometimes it's difficult if people don't use it in return. We hope this helps!

Lindsey BJust got off the express train from Don Muang to Chang Mai ,great experience. Very well organised at the station and very helpful staff who make sure you board the train at the right carriage . Once on board food orders are taken and delivered to your seat . Air con is cool but the blankets provided are warm enough .Beds are made up at around 8.30 pm and most people were settled for 10...breakfast and coffees served from 6am. Great experience will use again .

Marthe The bus driver drove very unsafe. And spoke almost no English. The bus stops several times which made it difficult to know when to get off because the driver did not speak English this made the process difficult

Dimitri MDeparture on time but arrival with a delay of 40min, not really important but maybe due to a driver not stressed (on his phone and papers whole travel) and several stops (one at 11am, initial arrival time, for restroom, 40min before arrival...). Maybe duration of travel is underestimated on website...
