Quelles sont les classes et prix de vols de Soutchai Travel ?
Le prix de votre voyage en bus dépendra à la fois de la destination et de la classe de votre billet. Notez que les classes de billets ne sont pas toutes disponibles sur certains itinéraires, mais pour les voyages plus longs, il y a presque toujours un large choix d'options. Choisissez pour un bus couchette pour un voyage de nuit plus confortable et pratique. Les bus couchettes sont généralement équipés de couchettes ou de sièges inclinables confortables, disposent de toilettes à bord, et votre billet peut également inclure d'autres avantages comme des collations, ou même un déjeuner. Choisir un bus de nuit permet également d’économiser le prix d’une nuit d'hôtel. Pendant la journée, le service express représente souvent le meilleur rapport qualité-prix, car il fait moins d'arrêts qu'un bus de classe ordinaire ou standard, et se déplace plus rapidement. Sur certains itinéraires, il peut être crucial de choisir la bonne classe car, par exemple, un bus ordinaire ou de deuxième classe peut avoir besoin d’environ 6 heures pour couvrir une distance qui serait parcourue en 2 heures par un bus de première classe ou express !
Avantages et inconvénients des voyages en bus
Avantages du voyage en bus
- On considère généralement le bus couvre le plus grand réseau de destinations. Ils desservent des endroits où vous ne pouvez pas vous rendre en avion ou même en train....
- Voyager en bus est facile - il n'est pas nécessaire d'arriver au terminal de bus avec beaucoup d'avance, et l'enregistrement est généralement une formalité très rapide comparé au voyage en avion.
- Les billets de bus sont très abordables. Il est vrai qu’il existe des options coûteuses, première classe ou VIP, mais si vous votre budget est limité, le bus est le moyen de transport auquel vous devez penser en premier.
- Il existe différentes classes de service pour répondre à tous les budgets. Si vous recherchez un niveau de confort plus élevé, les bus peuvent également vous convenir.
Inconvénients du voyage en bus
- Les terminaux de bus interurbains peuvent être situés en dehors du centre-ville, dans la périphérie. Cela signifie que vous devrez calculer le temps nécessaire et le budget supplémentaire pour vous y rendre. Pour certaines destinations, se rendre à la gare routière peut vous coûter plus cher que prévu, car seul un nombre limité de compagnies de transport est autorisé à desservir la ligne - et les tarifs peuvent grimper.
- Lors des week-ends de grande affluence ou en haute saison, les bus desservant certaines destinations touristiques peuvent avoir du retard et nécessiter une réservation préalable.
- Bien que les bus ne soient pas aussi dépendants de la météo que les ferries, les voyages en bus peuvent également être retardés ou annulés à cause du mauvais temps ou de l'état des routes - gardez cela à l'esprit si vous voyagez à certaines saisons ou vers certaines destinations.

Soutchai Travel: Avis sur la société

Bus Wagon-lit, Soutchai Travel, 11 mars 2024
We were picked up on time from our pick up point and taken to the bus station. We then got on the sleeper bus which stopped at Pakse station, the drivers were rude waved us away to the incorrect bus, whereby the driver of said bus also waved us away. Felt quite stranded for some time until a nice gentleman who didn’t even work for the station communicated on our behalf and we eventually got picked up. Just felt like a unnecessarily complicated journey that needed some more communication or instruction from the transport team.

Good communication, Soutchai emailed to say when the taxi bus would arrive. They took us to the bus station where we boarded the bus - the overnight double bed is small. Hubby is over 6 ft and it was really made for a 5ft person. The people guided us through the whole journey, bus, minibus and ferry - there was always someone making sure we were on the right transport, so all good. Not sure we'd do the overnight bus again but it was all a good experience. Toilet on the bus was basic but clean. Everyone was very kind and friendly. There were no food stops so bring your snacks - there was food at the first bus station though.

The pickup did not show up. After waiting 2 hours I got a tuktuk paid by the company because I would miss the big bus. That’s quiet stressfull. The whole bus had to wait for me and I had the last free chair. Did not like this for sure.

Bus left two hours later than was promised. We had to wait two hours at the busstation and employees told is multiple times the bus would leave shortly, but it didn’t.
Eventually two busses left. One fully packed with people (we we’re in this one) and one with just three people in it. The A/C in the bus didn’t work, so it was so warm.

Tuk tuk arrived on time at our hotel to take us to the bus station. From there it was one bus to Udon Thani with stops at the border crossings.
Fast and efficient. Would recommend.

Went with a bus with almost no air-conditioning (which was especially noticeable in 37C) and the departure was pushed back without advance warning from 1pm by an hour presumably so we could all get a nice tan under the midday sun. But that's Laos! Apart from the above everything went smoothly

I had a bad experiece using Soutchai Travel. I thought I was paying a premium to travel in a nice shuttle van (as pictured on their webpage), but instead it was just a tuk-tuk that took me to the Central Station, then a dirty, old bus.
But this bothered me less than the way time was managed. I was ready 30 minutes before the pick-up time as instructed. The tuk-tuk driver showed up about 40 minutes later. Fine, whatever. Then we drove across town to another hotel for another pick-up. The other passenger wasn't there. I sat there for another 25 minutes before the driver finally gave up and we went to the Central Station. He bought my ticket at the station, just as I could have; the station is only 10 minute walk from where I was staying. And I really wish I'd done just that. Leaving Vientiane later than expected - for no reason - made me stress about making my Udon Thani flight.
TL;DR - I paid a premium for Soutchai to waste my time and stress me out.

The driver who did the transfer from the accommodation came looking like he walked out of his living room, coughed without covering his mouth and spit through the window.
The trip was fine. It was 9.5 h long (for 300 km) because the road going south from Vientiane is horrible, but that's not the carrier's fault. The driver and the ticket seller didn't know a word of English and acted as if there were no foreigners in the van. They didn't understand when I was trying to ask them how long the break is going to be (not even in broken Lao).

According to the TOS they can change the vehicle type. I booked a minivan with 5.5h travel time and ended up in a bus with nearly 8h travel time. The problem was not the changed vehicle, it was the changed schedule. I booked 11.30am - 5pm. The new schedule was 1pm - 8.30pm. So the day was ruined because I had to wait from 10.30am in the lobby for the pickup. The pickup I got was later than they told me. I tried to call the buscompany but the number on the voucher doesn't work. The number which I found on google worked but no one answered my calls.

We booked for 9am and had to call the hotline 1.5 hours later to ask why we weren't picked up. Apparently the time was wrong and the shuttle wouldn't leave until 12:00. After calling, we were picked up very quickly by a private car and then had to spend another hour in the vicinity of the shuttle before we could start. The shuttle itself was perfectly fine and we arrived at our destination quickly. Watch your stuff! My hat was kindly put on my seat, but unfortunately the shuttle was not taken, but another one. So my hat is gone now.
Deutsch //
Wir haben für 9 Uhr gebucht und mussten 1,5 Stunden später bei der Hotline anrufen und erfragen, wieso wir nicht abgeholt wurden. Scheinbar stimmte die Zeit nicht und das Shuttle würde erst 12 Uhr losfahren. Wir wurden also nach dem anrufen sehr schnell abgeholt von einem privat PKW und mussten dann in der Umgebung des Shuttels noch eine Stunde verbringen bis es los ging. Das Shuttle selbst war vollkommen in Ordnung und wir waren auch zügig am Ziel angekommen. Achtet auf eure Sachen! Mein Hut wurde freundlicherweise auf mein Platz gelegt, leider wurde aber nicht mit dem Shuttle gefahren sondern mit einem anderen. Demnach ist mein Hut nun weg.

The car was really good and the road too
Unfortunately, the driver put a children bench between two of the seats and since I was the last to be picked, I was the one that had to be seated 2 hours on it, without a place to rest my back.

The driver came far too early, the open vehicle was okay but I was in constant fear our luggage would drop off. In hindsight I should simply have bought the ticket myself and take a grab taxi to the bus station. More comfortable, less waiting time, much cheaper.

On time pick up at hotel although rushed demeanour which became confusing when the tuk tuk then dropped us off at the van to only be told come back in 50mins and we will be departing. We had left bags on the van and then had to switch vans at that point meaning people had lost their seats they were saving. A bit of a shambles start. Proceeded to stop at an autorepair place for a car part before driving out of town about 20mins to only return back the same way and head in the right direction. Once on the road surprisingly good although a little hot (weak air con), but the 1hr40min delay to actually hitting the right direction was a little frustrating. Somehow arrived on time though. Wouldn't highly recommend but we got from A to B.

I booked the transfer for 1pm, was told to be ready for 1230, got picked up at 120pm, then told the actual bus wouldn't leave until 2pm. It is only a short journey but I wasted a huge part of the day waiting and being "ready' . Then my bag was stuffed under someone's seat and I couldn't find it for a long time before I got on the bus. The driver assured me it was there but there was barely enough room for all the passengers and all the bags. The company should not overbook if they don't vehicles large enough for all passengers and all luggage.

Die Fart von Vientiane nach Vang Vieng fand in einem Omnibus statt und verlief an sich reibunfsfrei. Allerdings machte der Bus nach 20 Minuten Fahrt Halt, da der Fahrer einen Anruf erhielt, dass zwei Fahrgäste, welche zu spät zur Abfahrt erschienen, noch mit einem extra Fahrzeug zum Bus gebracht werden. Daraufhin mussten ca. 30 Fahrgäste, welche alle pünktlich erschienen, fast eine halbe Stunde mitten auf der Strecke warten. Das ist absolut inakzeptabel und unfair den zahlenden Kunden gegenüber. Zumal es am gleichen Tag noch eine zweite Fahrt gegeben hätte, bei der diese beiden Personen hätten mitfahren können.

Very good service, left Vang Vieng on time, pick-up from my hotel appreciated, recommended you ask your hotel to confirm the time and pick-up. At Vientiane drop-off there are tuk-tuk drivers waiting who will overcharge you. I recommend to take a little walk away from the drop-off and engage another tuk-tuk driver. There are plenty. Don't pay more than 30,000 kip to a central hotel or hostel.

Drivers were excellent! Our bus was 30 minutes late picking us up, but good part was they picked us up at our hotel. We arrived in Vong Vieng where a transfer was made, all well organized. We were escorted to a different van which took us to Vientiane. Next time I would limit baggage on such a trip. Each of us carried a large suitcase, and drivers managed to fit us all into the van, but next time a rucksack would be easier. The van ride from Luang Prabang was very full of people and luggage. Our transfer van to Vientiane was roomier and more comfortable. I would use this service again.
