Chiang Mai to Sukhothai Historical Park Destination Reviews

Paula G

Overall it was a pleasant trip. Bus departed on time and arrived at Sukhothai only a few minutes late according to schedule. Good driver, the air-con worked well, seats are ok for the length of the trip and can recline a bit. You get water, some snacks, and a 20 bath voucher to use at the lunch stop.

Large comfortable bus. We were given a snack on board and a voucher for lunch. There were three separate toilet stops, one of which was also a lunch stop. Departed and arrived on time. Safe driver.

Old bus, security belt broken (the problem was known by the assistant but… and there are 2 big stickers mentioning to wear the belt !) , Lunch time longer than previous so we arrived later. Assistant not very helpful. We did not feel secure in this bus.
