Vientiane Southern Bus Station to Pakse SCL Bus Station Destination Reviews

I used your site for the first time because I don't understand Lao well and I was worried that the bus tickets would be sold out. I knew about your site before because a Japanese YouTuber introduced 12Go. This time the bus fare was the equivalent of 4,600 yen in Japanese yen, but you and the bus company charged a commission of about 4,000 yen, which I was not happy about. The bus that was introduced on your site was a new bus with privacy in mind, with curtains on the aisle side. However, in reality it was an old bus and there were curtains only on the window side.
Would not recommend this trip. The journey took 5 hours longer than suggested, we arrived at 12pm instead of 7am. Beds were extremely uncomfortable. Bus broke down on the side of the road at 2am for at least an hour. Very dirty

You can survive but it's anything but luxury. Windshield was broken, bus was run down but we arrived in time ;)
Bus was way older than the one I bought.
Bus was loaded with a lot of things that weren’t from passengers even inside the bus.

Good option to get from Vientiane to Pakse. Spacious Beds and good aircon. Pillows and blankets are provided. It looked like one of the better sleeper buses leaving the bus station. I would recommend it. Keep in mind you'll share your bed with someone else if you're traveling alone (otherwise buy 2 tickets).

Everything ok but only one stop and then in a place on the track where there was no decent toilet. Bit incomprehensible.

Alles ok maar slechts één stop en dan nog op een plek op de baan waar geen deftig toilet was. Beetje onbegrijpelijk.

I booked 2 seats to make sure I’ll have a full bed for myself. Really comfortable trip 👍 Didn’t have to use the toilets so no idea how they are.

14 hour journey took 20 hours! No mechanical issues or traffic instead stopping every 1-2 hours for cigarette and toilet breaks. Solo female traveller dropped off at 3am on the side of the road in pakse and told to get out instead of the bus station. Before getting on bus was told i had to pay extra 50,000 lak to get on. No explanation to why. Pay the extra £20 to fly. Wish i did

As a solo female traveler I actually quite enjoyed this trip. I booked only one tickets so a Lao women was laying next to me but it was fine! You can sit up in your bed, get a nice blanket and snack package and I thought that the road wasn’t too bad!
