About Green Paradise

Buses are the most affordable means of transport with a large number of terminals across the country and convenient timetables to help you plan your trip. Buses is a convenient option both for those who travel on a shoestring budget and those who do not want to compromise on comfort. Green Paradise offers bus service with an online reservation available. Before booking your ticket, read other travellers’ reviews to choose the best option.

What are the Bus Classes & Prices of Green Paradise?

The price of your bus trip will depend both on the destination and the class of your ticket. Note that not all ticket classes are available on certain routes yet for longer trips there is almost always a good choice of options. Opt for a sleeper coach for the most convenient overnight trip. Sleeper buses are usually equipped with berths or soft reclining seats, feature an onboard toilet and your ticket may also include other perks like snacks or even a lunch. Taking a night bus is also a good idea if you want to save on your hotel room. During the day an express service is often the best value for money as it makes less stops than an ordinary or standard class bus and travels faster. On some routes it may be crucial to choose the right class as, say, an ordinary or second class bus may need some 6 hours to cover the distance the first class or express bus travels in two hours!

Pros & Cons of Bus Travel

Pros of Bus Travel

  • Buses usually boast the widest network of destinations covered. They travel to the places you cannot get to by plane or even by train

  • Travelling by bus is easy – there is no need to arrive to the bus terminal much in advance, and the check-in is usually a very fast formality opposite to air travel

  • Bus tickets are very affordable. Yes, there are costly first class or VIP options but is you are on a budget, bus is the first means of transportation you have to think about

  • At the same time, there are different classes of service to suit any budget. If you are after a higher level of comfort, buses get you covered, too.

Cons of Bus Travel

  • Intercity bus terminals can be located outside the city centre in the outskirts. It means you will need to calculate extra time and money to get there. In certain destinations getting from the bus terminal can cost you more than you would expect because only a limited number of transportation companies is allowed to serve the route – and prices may be inflated.

  • During busy weekends or high season buses serving some tourist destinations may run out of schedule and require advanced booking.

  • While buses are not as weather dependent as ferries, bus trips can also be delayed or cancelled due to bad weather or road conditions – keep it in mind if travelling during certain seasons or to certain destinations.

Bus Sleeping Bus + Mini Van, Green Paradise, Dec 11, 2023
Wir sind mit dem Sleeping Bus + Mini Van von Vientiane nach Nakasong bzw. Don Khong gereist. Der Sleeping Bus in Vientiane ist pünktlich um 20.00 Uhr abgefahren. Der Bus war etwas heruntergekommen, die Fahrt manchmal holprig und das Bett recht klein, aber insgesamt alles in Ordnung. Wenn man als Paar reist, ist 1 Bett (= 2 Tickets) ok, ansonsten besser pro Person 1 Bett alleine buchen (= 2 Tickets). Im Bett gab es 2 Decken und 2 Kissen. Im Bus waren Mitarbeiter, die sich darum gekümmert haben, dass jeder am richtigen Ort aussteigt. Es gab für jeden ein kostenloses Wasser und ein Erfrischungstuch. Als wir am Vormittag in Pakse angekommen sind, war der Minivan bereits abfahrbereit und ist direkt losgefahren. Nach ein paar wenigen Stopps sind wir bis Nakasong gefahren. Dort ist eine kurze Strecke bis zum Hafen, an welchem man sich ein Ticket für die Fahrt nach Don Det (20.000 Kip) sowie Don Khong (30.000 Kip) kaufen kann (Stand Dezember 2023). Wir können die Fahrt mit Green Paradise weiterempfehlen.

Bus AC Sleeper, Green Paradise, Oct 10, 2023
Important to know: I was told to go to Green Travel in Pakse for 7pm. When I arrived there, the place was shut and I was left on the curb in the dark, not knowing what was going on and unable to get in contact with Green Travel or 12Go Asia. However, a tuktuk driver will come and pick you up to take you to the bus station. This was not communicated to me, and I felt people should know that is going to happen so they don’t feel unsafe. Not the fault of the company or driver, the road conditions are just insanely bumpy and when adding that to being squished next to a stranger not much sleep was achieved. It can’t be helped and is just a part of travelling.

We were picked up by driver from hotel and taken straight to Don Det which wasn’t what we were told would happen. We were told we would go to office first so planned to get food and water from the shop by the office before the trip so we ended up going without. However the journey was much shorter than it advised so we were fine. We arrived an hour ahead of time after getting the boat from the mainland.

Be careful when booking if you’re booking one of the local busses or a VIP bus. We have booked a local bus that took 12 hours (including two breakdowns of the bus), smelled strange, was rather old and uncomfortable (no proper seats but bunk beds) and did not go faster than 60 km/h. Bring some time and patience when booking a local bus and lower your expectations.

Bus Local, Green Paradise, Mar 15, 2023
Arrived 4.5 hours late, the coach had no curtains so was boiling hot in the sun. Had air con but not very effective. Two people to a ‘bed’ which as average sized westerners was not very comfortable. We made many stops. One stop we were at for close to two hours, no indication as to how long we would be there, whether it would be long enough to eat a proper meal, so went for the whole 10.5 hour journey on only crisps. They also allow locals selling giant, very pungent sticks of meat on board every few hours which is not pleasant for us as vegetarians. Fortunately there was still a hotel open for us to check into as it was gone midnight by the time we arrived.

デット島のボート、ナカーサンのバンともに定刻通り出発し、パクセには30分早く到着しました。バン自体は年季が入っていましたが、エアコンはよく効いていました。ドライバーも比較的安全運転だったと思います。

It was a nice minivan. We were in front next to the driver. They should arrange something that taller people can have a seat with more space.
