Chiang Mai to Mae Sot Destination Reviews

PG
A USB port on the bus to charge phones would be good. Bus held up by checkpoint near Mae Sot which was not the company's of driver's fault. Hostess was friendly and helpful and spoke some English. One doesn't need to go to the Green Bus ticket counter to exchange electronic ticket for paper one as it says on website. Can just show electronic one and get on the bus.
