Jakie są klasy i ceny biletów na autobusy Soutchai Travel?
Cena podróży autobusem będzie zależała zarówno od miejsca docelowego do którego zmierzasz, jak i klasy biletu, który zakupisz. Należy pamiętać, że nie wszystkie klasy biletów są dostępne na niektórych trasach, ale w przypadku dłuższych podróży prawie zawsze masz wybór z wielu możliwości. Wybierz autokar z miejscami sypialnymi na najwygodniejszą nocną wycieczkę. Autobusy z miejscami sypialnymi są zwykle wyposażone w koje/kuszetki lub miękkie rozkładane siedzenia i toaletę na pokładzie, a Twój bilet może również obejmować inne przyjemności, takie jak przekąski, a nawet lunch. Jeśli chcesz zaoszczędzić na pokoju hotelowym, skorzystaj z nocnego autobusu. W ciągu dnia usługa ekspresowa jest często najkorzystniejsza cenowo, ponieważ zatrzymuje się mniej niż autobus klasy zwykłej lub standardowej i porusza się szybciej. Na niektórych trasach wybór odpowiedniej klasy może być kluczowy, ponieważ np. autobus zwykły lub drugiej klasy może potrzebować około 6 godzin na pokonanie odległości, którą pierwsza klasa lub autobus ekspresowy pokonuje w ciągu dwóch godzin!
Podróż autobusem: za i przeciw
Zalety podróży autobusem
Autobusy zwykle oferują najszerszą sieć miejsc docelowych i tras które obsługują. Dojeżdżają do miejsc, do których nie można dotrzeć ani samolotem, ani nawet pociągiem
Podróżowanie autobusem jest łatwe – nie ma potrzeby pojawiania się na dworcu autobusowym z dużym wyprzedzeniem, a odprawa jest zwykle bardzo szybką formalnością w przeciwieństwie do podróży samolotem
Bilety autobusowe mają bardzo przystępne ceny. Tak, są droższe opcje do wyboru: klasa pierwsza lub opcja VIP, ale jeśli masz ograniczony budżet, autobus to pierwszy środek transportu, o którym musisz pomyśleć
Jednocześnie dostępne są różne klasy usług dostosowane do każdego budżetu. Jeśli zależy Ci na wyższym poziomie komfortu, autobusy spełnią Twoje potrzeby.
Wady podróży autobusem
Dworce z przystankami dla autobusów obsługujących trasy międzymiastowe mogą znajdować się poza centrum, a nawet na obrzeżach miasta. Oznacza to, że trzeba doliczyć dodatkowy czas i pieniądze, aby się tam dostać. W niektórych miejscach dojazd z dworca autobusowego może kosztować więcej, niż można by się spodziewać, ponieważ tylko ograniczona liczba firm transportowych będzie obsługiwać tę trasę więc ceny mogą być zawyżone.
W chodliwe weekendy lub w sezonie autobusy obsługujące niektóre miejsca turystyczne mogą nie mieć rozkładu jazdy i wymagać wcześniejszej rezerwacji.
Chociaż autobusy nie są tak zależne od pogody jak promy, kursy autobusowe mogą być również opóźnione lub odwołane z powodu złej pogody lub warunków drogowych – miej to na uwadze, jeśli podróżujesz w określonych porach roku lub do określonych miejsc.
Would not recommend this trip. The journey took 5 hours longer than suggested, we arrived at 12pm instead of 7am. Beds were extremely uncomfortable. Bus broke down on the side of the road at 2am for at least an hour. Very dirty

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.

the bus left late, lost my airpods on the bus - i knew i had dropped them under the seat but was basically dragged off the bus and not given the chance to look under seat for them- the driver literally started driving away. the operators were rude
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.
A very pleasant and easy journey. Had to swap 30 minutes outside Savannakhet to a minivan which was safe and easy. The beds are for 6ft tall or less, but comfortable

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
On time, really fast, nice driver:) 8.45am pick up from hotel, around 12am in vangvieng.

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.
Super impressed with this travel company ! My hostel was not on the list for pick up so ended up going to their office, despite not having booked it direct with them they still changed my pick up for me to my hostel. Super smooth. Good minivan made it to Vang Viengbin about 2 hours !
Did not get the minibus I booked but an old big bus. Had to wait for 1,5 hour after arriving at the station. Arrived 45 minutes late. Well, this is Laos.
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).

Good just only vehicle condition but service was bad and not on time (2 hour late)
This was suppose to be a 4 hour journey but we were only half way through at this point. It ended being a 7 and a half hour journey without any communication

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.

Driver die not find me at first to bring me to the busstation, but did not give up. Good service.
The taxi never turned up to our hostel to pick us up. We had to repay for another form of transport to the train station and then had to pay for another ticket for the train. We are yet to be refunded!

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.

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.

Bus was fine. The destination is NOT any hotel, they drop you off in a central hub and you will need to pay a tuktuk to drive you to your final destination. Cost us an additional $6
