Great communication, most confortable sleeper bus I have travelled in. Just note the smaller van start from Ao Nang is hot and night bus for the rest of the drip is freezing. Dress accordongly and bring earplugs, there's always someone snooring. Bus leaving from Macdonals seems to be late every time, ours left 4:30pm, in Bangkok just before 6am. Great value!

Van pickup was late 40minutes. It's not a problem if there was a shade where to wait but pickup point is just on the street, plus it's said that passenger must be there 30min before so not very nice to stand in the sun over an hour.. Van also didn't have any ac it was no air movement in there.. Otherwise the bus was okay and reached on time. But the pickup could be organized a lot better

It's about the communication. I updated the place where I should be picked up to the pick-up portion, even included the url of the map so that they can but of to no use at all. They called me expecting I can communicate well in Thai, I confirmed the pick-up location which is my hotel but he asked about the soi, I have relayed it as per the owner of the hotel but the one who called me seem to be very confused. I asked the owner to talk to the onr who called me so everything would get fixed. I was told to wait in 20 minutes more but it took more than an hour wait. The experience is horrible, anticipation and anxiety to the highest level. - This refers to the van that picked me up not the bus.

No refreshments, no water, no meals as promised, but the buses were on time, with one break at Surat Thani, the staff was good and courteous, worth an adventure with ac bus, to save flight cost which was 8000 rs, and paid 2401 rs. Thanks

Buses were on time and pretty comfortable, but communication was very poor. At the transfer point from the van to the bus, we had a 3h lay-over, which no one ever communicated. Also, they provided no informations about what stops there would be on the bus ride (toilet, store for water etc.) or about the setup of the bus.

Driver turned up 2 hours late so was waiting a long time in direct sun no shade. No one answered the hotline and 12go support. Driver rushed to big bus stop on no fuel and went to the wrong place twice. The overnight bus driver was better as we were given blankets snacks and water but more uncomfortable seats than I thought it would be. Overnight bus was also delayed setting off.
