Chiang Mai to Krung Thep Aphiwat Central Terminal Station Destination Reviews

NH
The first time we booked through from 12Go was everything fine because we got what we pay for.Same Agent as they mentioned in the ticket and The Agent service is Excellent even though that was Normal Bus. But for the second time we were facing payment issues from the application because even after we paid but page is still not updated for payment information plus no confirmation and receipt so that we had hard time who we can contact on the spot,You should have customer service number to contact any of payment issues or email because we didn’t get the email right away to contact as soon as possible.Another one things is we booked the tickets expensive but the agent is not like in the voucher you issued and bus is old.

The bus is quite old. The toilet hopefully you dont need a no2 as no toilet roll. The bus bounced frequently but we all arrived in one piece 1.5 hrs later than the scheduled time. What i find interesting is the buses in Vietnam are way more modern. Strange. This thing im surprised it still works. Staff as always dont say much but its a long day for them i guess. The suspension is well extremely bouncy so rocked back and forth at speed. Motion sickness yep in buckets
