Khao San Lomprayah to Chiang Mai Destination Reviews

VG
Overall better than expected. I took the overnight train in May, the temperature hits 40x but it is cooler in the night, so the fan and open windows made a little differences. Toilet was okay and drinks were offered a couple of times throughout the journey. The seats not super comfortable and the light stays on, other than that-value for the money.

The seat was comfortable the blanket cozy and the ride was smooth as hell. 30 minute food break in the middle (food included with ticket) and most of the time either watching a show or sleeping on my way to Chaing Mai.

Very good, no problem sleeping. Toilet was ok, but bring wipes.

We had a good trip, the only downside was that the snacks we got weren’t vegetarian. Additionally the headrest was a bit to low for our tallest traveler. The staff was nice and we had no problems receiving the tickets and the booking process was easy. We even arrived an hour early.

Not TOP but exceeds expectations. Really cheap

In general it was a great experience and the chairs was very comfortable. The only things that bothered me was the loud sounds from the engine of the bus and the little televisions on the chairs did not work. Otherwise I would really recommend this bus to others!

Really a good trip! Comfortable bus and the 10 hours didn’t feel like it so worth it.
