Bagan Min Tha

Bus kept stopping to pick people (friends up ) tooting of the horn !! Lights kept going on and off and we were sitting near the back and every time some one got on ,, all they wanted to do was talk ??? Nightmare !!

A bit of anxious while waiting for the confirmation as nearing to the boarding date, since no way to contact them directly.

Traveling in the night, very comfortable

Very good overnight ride. I was actually able to sleep. The only thing I would add is a small snack. The driver was safe.

Bus seem to arrive too early in the morning at 3 am instead of the approximate 5.30am schedule. We were stuck at the bus station with taxi cahoots that maintain their steep prices. All these is really giving Myanmar tourist industry a bad image. Arriving too early too we were not able to check in early without paying extra cost.

Bus left on time, few stops on the way and the driver drove well.

Only down side is the air conditioning was way to strong. Other than that, comfortable seats and amenities, managed to sleep most the ride, would recommend highly :)

The bus was very narrow and a lot of passenger. Next to me was a family (daddy, mom and kid), late night the kid cried and made I unable to sleep. However, Staff of bus operators really nice and kind.

Very nice bus with helpful staff.

Very pleasantly surprised as we were provided a drink (Coke), blanket, neck support for sleeping and the driver ensured a very smooth run. Toilet on board too. Website did not indicate any of those were available.

Clean, the air conditioner is functioning properly, departs on time and arrives earlier than expected. Every passenger will get one bottle of mineral water, one neck pillow and blanket. Bus will stop for lunch for 30 minutes.

Fast and tummy was happy!

As the description says, Quite freezing is right! The thin blankets weren't enough, wear long pants! The bus is comfortable but it was hard to sleep with cold/bumps/constant tooting of the horn. The 'VIP' package included a can of coke, a banana cake thing a wet wipe and curiously a toothbrush and toothpaste (but no apparent way/time to use it) At the other end we were ripped off by the taxis charging several times what a 5 minute journey should cost. My advice is to leave bus terminal and talk to toktok drivers

We booked a hotel pick up in Bagan. We got confirmation email that we should wait at the hotel's reception 30 minutes prior departure, which was 7pm... We came to the reception at 6:20 just to be told that the driver left 5 minutes ago... like what? When we called the company, they refused to come back for us so we had to take taxi to the station... When we got there, we were told the departure is posponed one hour... but the good news was that the van was replaced by normal bus so the journey was okay...

For the price I was paying, It was reasonably acceptable as I sat in the row with 1 chair and I was at the most front. The dissappointing thing is no bottled water was given, bus staff not able to communicate clearly with us on the time of the main bus breaks, especially at that time they were more foreign tourist.

Is called VIP just because it has 3 seats in a row instead of 4. Is not bad but not like others VIP's companies. It was punctual

Very comfortable seats and everything is provided for long trips. The only disadvantage was that seats are not very clean but still it was a very comfy 10hour trip

Leg rest & lever broken on seat. Arrived early at 3am, better to leave later & arrived 6-7am.

What an experience, i was the only western person on the bus much to everyone else’s amusement, people kept staring at me the whole journey watching what I was eating, sleeping etc, made me feel slightly uncomfortable. They driver didn’t speak English and when we stopped wanted me to get off the bus with no explanation just shouted ‘OFF’ at me, strange experience won’t be doing it again any time soon. The bus itself was ok, clean, water and blanket but it was noisy, the TV was playing most of the journey which was loud too

We paid for a bus but we got a minivan instead which was like a furnace and only stopped for one toilet break 1 hour into the trip. Driver could’ve drove a bit safer as the seat belts didn’t even work. A bit disappointed as our first trip with the company went really well and they were very helpful, adequate breaks, safe driving, nice temperature in the bus etc. But I don’t recommend Bagan to Inle with this company. Yangon to Bagan is fine as you get a large coach.

Really helpful company. We were stuck in traffic but they waited for us. Thanks a lot!

The service was very good, except to the conditioner air cause it Was very ice in the evening

The bus was alright and almost on time...not so many foreigners so you get to taste local experience...staff friendly and even they did not speak english they tried their best to explain...if you asked them that you needed break for physiological needs they stopped...i think if you dont expect western standart and that is probably why we travel to such contries then its ok...only thing i did not like was that we stopped almost at the end of journey at some village just for some local shopping such as fruits etc.

Comfortable ride, when you get off the bus at the end taxi drivers bump up the price. There should be a sign with the prices listed on how much for each city.

One week before departure the operator (Bagan Minn Thar company) has changed the car type for this route to a 14 seater minivan instead of the normal bus. We saw the bus we would originaly ride (iT seemed overbooked so therefore they changed us to the minivan, which was bit strange because we booked like half a Year a go) The minivan was really less luxurious then the normal bus. You dont have space and you cant change the Seat position. The minivan is absolutely no option for people who are almost 2 meters long. There was no compensation/refund for the less comfortable ride we had. The positive points: the driver did a good job and the road was much bettet than we’ce experienced before

The seats are too small and arrive too early

I had a good experience traveling with the the bus.

The driver was in a very dangerous hurry on the road and made us arrive at 4 am instead of 5 am... Very inconvenient when you cannot check-in your hotel at that time. The A/C was full on all the time and made the ride extremely cold, especially in the mountains. You guys need to calm down.

Nice ride. Just cold.

Dirty crowed van. Luggage on top to get full of dust and sand. Bad restaurant stop. Needed a toilet not a squat. Need much improvement.

Trip was very fast (we arrived one hour earlier). Comfortable the seats and very helpful people onboard.

It was unexpected to have mini bus instead of normal one, luggage was on the roof and all dirty because of the sand on the road. Please add cover next time

First 2 hours you can hear loud Birman rap, air-co goes from 10 to 26. I must admit they are very resourcefull when it comes to overbooked buses. They put plastic chairs in the middle. For my standards was ok. Picked me up from the hotel on its way.

Air co not do cold, cola, water and snack provided. After 2 hours there was a stop for food and drink.

I give 3 stars because minivan is very unconfortable to do the route. The route has unpavement road and ... uau. But if I must to ride again .. Ok!

Ok, radio on a bit loud when trying to sleep, seats not that comfortable, staff a little standoffish, apart from that all was good, felt safe during journey.

Comfortable but freezing

Bumpy ride and dangerous road, narrow with big curves. Old bus and pretty noisy. Wouldn’t take that bus again! Always get the JJ bus if possible!!! The driver was not too bad.

Pretty bumpy ride. The bus is not the same as the JJ Company we took from Yangon to Bagan, which was like a plane on the road with TVs in every seats and super big seats. But this bus was pretty noisy - the bus driver listened to music all the way and there was a Buddha statue in front of the bus with one of those annoying LED flash lights. I was able to sleep maybe 2 hours out of 8 hours. And when we had a 30 min break, the bus driver let the doors open, so mosquitos and the hot air. The JJ driver instead told everybody to leave the bus and locked it so the air stayed cold. Conclusion: Always get the JJ bus of possible!!!

Nice trip :)

The good: gave us water, a coke and cookies. The bus it us old, but confortable. The bad: It was freezing with the AC. And the driver was very fast in a bumpy road, so it was impossible to sleep! And, despite having a flat tire, it still arrived 1h30 early (4h30 - making us to spend another night at the hotel - glad the emperor hotel was kind enough to only charge the breakfast).

Was able to sleep most of the trip. Had 5 stops total. The roads were quite bumpy but the driver drove well.

Modern comfortable Chinese coach. Lost an hour or so while they changed the injectors. Aircon set to arctic.

very good service, on time and helpfull

Bus was dirty

Very old and oddly decorated. Only a row of 4 electrical points for the whole bus to charge. The pit stop for washrooms was the worse toilet I ever seen in Myanmar thus far. They made a lot of stop before Inle to drop others off but still arrived on time. Bcos of the time of the night at 5am, could only take an open air lorry to our hotel. It was freezing!! I would recommend JJ express instead

There mosquitos on the bus(yangon-bagan) i had severals bites in my arms

We chose this bus because we had an early flight in Yangon. First, the bus departured late, 15 minutes late. Second, it stopped in several buses stations to pick up more passengers. Additionally, it made a 45 minute stop in the middle of the road. As you can imagine, we didn't get to Yangon on time. It was supposed to arrive at 5:00 am and it arrived 6:20 am. I know that the schedule can change due to problems on the road or else, but since no one could speak more than basic English, nobody informed us. Also, people could get off the bus wherever they asked to stop. I wouldn't recommend this bus. If knowing that it doesn't respect schedules, i would have booked JJ express, their service is much more better.
