Quiénes Somos K Buddy

Si bien algunos viajeros se muestran escépticos respecto a las furgonetas, otros las prefieren porque ofrecen una gran variedad de destinos a buenos precios. Las furgonetas son más flexibles que los autobuses grandes. Si hay una demanda imprevista de viajes a nuevos destinos, los operadores de furgonetas son siempre los primeros en brindar el servicio. De hecho, es más fácil poner en marcha una nueva ruta si se opera un vehículo con capacidad para 10-15 pasajeros, ¿no es cierto?

K Buddy opera un servicio de furgonetas y ofrece fácil reserva online para los billetes. Consúltalos si buscas opciones para viajar en furgoneta.

¿Cuáles son las clases de furgonetas y los precios de K Buddy?

En general, no se puede elegir una clase de billete cuando se viaja en furgoneta. Sin embargo, puedes consultar con el operador y/o elegir el tipo de furgoneta que sirve tu ruta. Algunas furgonetas sólo tienen capacidad para 9-10 pasajeros, mientras que otras pueden acomodar hasta 15 viajeros. En el primer caso tendrás más espacio para extender las piernas, asientos más amplios y será un viaje más cómodo; en el segundo, hay menos espacio para las piernas, los codos y el equipaje.

Ventajas y Desventajas de los Viajes en Furgoneta

  • Las furgonetas suelen llegar a localidades a las que no llegan ni los autobuses ni los trenes, como en los casos de las ciudades secundarias y los pueblos más pequeños
  • En la mayoría de los casos, si viajas por tierra, las furgonetas son la forma más rápida de llegar a tu destino si las distancias son relativamente cortas, simplemente porque son más pequeñas que los autobuses y más fáciles de manejar
  • Las furgonetas te pueden dejar bajar en un punto más conveniente a lo largo de la ruta, no necesariamente en la terminal, y así ahorrarte un montón de tiempo y dinero.

Desventajas de los Viajes en Furgoneta

  • A veces, las furgonetas están bastante abarrotadas y tienen poco espacio para el equipaje. En realidad, casi todas las furgonetas tienen espacio limitado para el equipaje, así que si tienes más de un bolso, maleta o mochila, puede ser una buena idea comprar un asiento separado para tu equipaje - sí, lamentablemente habrá que pagar el doble
  • Vale la pena verificar si la furgoneta sale a la hora prevista o solo cuando está llena; en este último caso puede que termines esperando demasiado, porque hay trayectos en los que la furgoneta tarda bastante en llenarse.
  • Hay que saber que los furgoneteros tienen fama de manejar muy rápido. A veces, hasta las empresas más reputadas no logran convencer a los conductores de que respeten los límites de velocidad. Cuando viajes en furgoneta, recuerda siempre abrocharte el cinturón de seguridad, aunque el conductor no insista en ello
    Si te mareas con facilidad y tu viaje incluye tramos con muchas curvas, las probabilidades de marearte en una furgoneta son mayores que en un autobús. Toma un medicamento media hora antes del viaje para que estés mejor durante el trayecto.

Nos ayudaron en todo momento con el tema del visa on arrival, hablaban inglés y fueron amables. Lo único malo fue el slow boat, que para coger un buen sitio y que no te toque atrás de todo con el ruido del motor y asientos incómodos tienes que madrugar un montón (como 2-3 horas antes de la salida del barco….). Pero para vivir la experiencia está bien, y si vas mentalizado no se pasa tan tan mal.

J’avais réservé le van plus bus de nuit pour le Laos. Départ prévu à 12h à mon hôtel. Un monsieur est venu à 11h passé pour me prévenir que le départ était repoussé à 14h. A 13h30 un autre homme en voiture basic est passé le chercher, m’a déposé au van. La suite s’est plutôt bien passé. Le van était confortable et climatisé, il nous a conduit à un petit shop en bord de route pour faire les démarches avant la frontière (plutôt bizarre). On y rempli le formulaire pour la douane et prendre des photos pour ceux qui n’en ont pas. On peut aussi faire le change des baths en kip à un taux très interessant. Le passage de la douane a été assez facile, rien à signaler côté thaïlandais. Par contre côté laotien, prévoir 1$ ou 50 baths de frais de services (juste pour qu’elle vérifie le formulaire. Payer 40$ ou 1800 baths de visa (attention en baths c’est beaucoup plus cher). Passer les douanes il faut attendre pour aller prendre le bus de nuit, on nous conduit à la gare routière petite mais avec le necessaire. Le bus de nuit est parti avec plus de 30 min de retard, le personnel était mal aimable au possible, on ne nous expliquait rien et ils ne parlaient pas anglais. Tu te retrouves dans une couchette plutôt étroite à deux avec un inconnu (ils essayent de mettre les touristes ensemble). Et la une route qui te secoue dans tous les sens entre les trous et les virages c’est à avoir envie de vomir. Une pause dîner à eu lieu à 20h et après aucune idee s’il y avait des pauses ou juste les arrêts des voyageurs car rien n’est dit en anglais. Le voyage se fait, on ne dort pas ou pas beaucoup mais au moins on arrive à bon port

Starting at the Lao bus terminal was a bit tough, you have to exchange the voucher and find the bus - not many speak English, in our case there was luckily only one possible option. The whole route took longer than suggested, but we figured that from all other travel offers. The local sleeping bus takes about 15h to get to a station 15 minutes away from the border. After the bus ride we had a K buddy affiliate waiting to show us the vehicle we would take to ravel to the Lao Border Town Huay Xai (ca. 15 min away) There they awaited us and explained the next steps , bought the bus ticket and handed them to us since you need to take an mandatory bus line across the friendship bridge to Thai border. On the other side, after immigration at the Thai border there was a Thai driver from K buddy waiting to take us to Chang Rai. The whole travel was very seamless and easy. Biggest pain point was the Lao Sleeping Bus as is was quite rudimentary, also some people that got in at later bus stops had to sleep on the floor between the bed stations as all beds were full. We expected that though so all was fine and K Buddy really guided us through - their service was great :)

Zero communication Our hotel was a bit out the city, we received confirmation from 12Go but no further information. We looked up the provider on Google to find their Whatsapp and messaged over 24 hours before. We received no response despite multiple messages. 2 hours before pick up I decided to call to check the pick up was okay, we were told we had to meet at the meeting point (this information was not provided). After the call they finally opened the numerous messages I'd sent and rang back saying they'd send someone which they did. In the end it worked out and driver at both ends was very nice and the vehicle was fine. I've unfortunately left 2 stars because of the stress caused by the complete lack of information and on 12Go it says 1h 30m transfer - this was more like 3 hours total. Vehicle could also do with a clean inside.

High points: * We arrived safely at our destination. * The border crossing itself was straightforward. * After entering Laos, the staff eventually directed us to the correct bus and we reached Luang Namtha without any major issues. Low points: * Pickup was late, and communication about the delay was limited. * The taxi was overcrowded and uncomfortable for five passengers with luggage. * One of the most uncomfortable moments was when the taxi driver repeatedly asked how much we had paid for the transfer, started making phone calls about it, and later asked us for a tip. It created an awkward situation that shouldn’t happen during a prepaid transfer. * The company is not transparent about the type of transportation you’ll actually be using. When you book, you don’t know whether you’ll travel by private van, taxi, tuk-tuk, or an old local bus. The ticket guarantees you’ll reach your destination, but not the comfort or the means of transport. * Assistance at the border was minimal, so you should be prepared to handle the visa and immigration process on your own. * The bus to Luang Namtha was in poor condition, and the long meal stop made an already long journey even longer. Overall: If your only priority is getting from Chiang Rai to Luang Namtha at a reasonable price, this service does the job. However, the lack of transparency, inconsistent transportation, and poor communication make it difficult to rate higher than 3 stars.

What’s good: - Easy to book, confirmation email sent immediately - My transport was an 11-seater, vehicle looks new-ish and clean - I was picked up from the comfort of my hotel (instead of having to go to the bus station) What can be improved: - No communication from service provider apart from the auto confirmation email. I have to WhatsApp them to ask what time is pick up (I was informed pick up is between 1 - 1:30pm) & if driver is going to come and find me in lobby - Driver was driving very fast - it felt unsafe. He was racing through pot holes and overtaking cars. I understand this may be common / how driving is in Thailand, but felt unsafe. I rather the travel time is 4 - 4.5 hours and he doesn’t have to rush

Avoid we had to chase confirmation of pickup by whats app. We were informed pick up 1pm to 1.30 we had to get our hotel to call they didn’t pick us up until 1.50 then drove like a maniac speeding and tailgating other cars to get to the pickup point for van did not feel safe at all. No apology for lateness

Pros: The driver arrived early to pick us up from the hotel. The van was big and comfortable enough. Cons: The driver was scrolling through TikTok the whole time, if not on TikTok he was on YouTube. During the break in the trip he said we had 20 minutes, after 20 mins everyone was in the bus but we had to wait 15 more minutes for the driver while he was smoking. No communication from the company, because they picked us up from our hotel I expected a message to confirm pickup location like I have had before. Overall, the experience was fine.

The service was fine until we crossed the border to Laos , the sleeper bus was late to departure, and instead of 24 hours trip it became almost 30 hours because the kept going of track and picking on and of random people who didn’t even have a seat in the bus and just set on the floor.

On the ticket it said we were supposed to be there AT LEAST 40 min before departure. We were there 30 min before and were told we are the last ones. But more people kept showing up also wanting to go to Chiang Rai. So there were not enough seats in the van. They had to organize another one which took them AN HOUR. So we sat there on the street for 1 1/2 hours and still had to leave people behind (I actually don’t know what happened to them). The van was ok, the driver was super nice and they stopped half way. The driver was average but the organization was aweful.

My pick up was on time as the first passagner, but quite disorganized for others. He didn't have all the correct pick up addresses and it took over an hour to get out of Chiang Rai. He was a good driver, much safer than previous experiences. I've learned that door to door isn't necessarily the best option.

The driver was slightly late but that didn’t bother me at all, I had contacted the operator and they were on the phone to me straight away. I was on my own and so the driver offered me a seat in the front which was lovely as I got to appreciate the gorgeous views along the way.

There were not much information from 12GO, luckily I traveled with 2 other person who booked through the bus station and received phone numbers and more details through WhatsApp. The bus left 2h later than schedule and the trip took longer as well. The van waiting for us at the border left as we were Kate and we had to wait an additional 1h30, the trip took about 24h in total, instead of 17h. The bus isn't confortable and the bed have to be shared. There were not enough bed available because some luggage had to be stored on beds since the boot was full of eggs and chickens... Worth ride I had in a bus.

Everything was on time and worked seamlessly - HOWEVER, they overly packed the van so it was VERY cramped and people were sitting on the floor. The AC was blasting making it ice cold, and the driver was flying through the curves. We made it safe and sound and an hour early even, but it was a very taxing journey.

Autobús Van + Bus + Song Taew + Slow Boat, K Buddy, 20 nov 2025
I really can't recommend this and would suggest using another tour provider. Got the slow boat from Chiang Rai to Luang Prabang. Pick-up was on time and the van was air conditioned. Everything before the border was fine. Smooth leaving Thailand but entering Laos was a nightmare. No guidance given throughout this, other than by a man who couldn't confirm his identity and honestly we thought we were being scammed. Had to pay visa fee and a tourist tax directly to him, not border officials which really did not seem right. The transfer was overbooked and me and my partner were crammed into the seat of a pick up with our main backpacks and day packs on top of us. We were provided a sandwich but there was no vegetarian or vegan option. Made it to the ferry point and we were the last group to get there out of all the other tour providers meaning we didn't and many others didn't get a seat on the actual boat as it was overbooked. Would I do it again? Yes the slow boat was crowded but had stunning views - but definitely not with this tour provider.
