Super confortable véhicule and journey but no one told there was toilet in the back. I would have been great to know. And the driver was smoking while driving, so we were poisoned by the smoke…

The bus drivers attitude was completely unacceptable. The arrival drop-off was over 12 km away from where it was supposed to be and 4 hours earlier than stated on the ticket making it somewhat inconvenient and adding expence for pickup at 5:00am instead of 9:00am.

Rude staff on the bus, opened the cabin curtain without asking. Driver started smoking which spread through the entire bus. Only after the second request to stop he actually stopped smoking. Bumpy ride all the way, as all the buses are. Got there one hour early. Could have been smoother.

We were contacted on WhatsApp and then picked up from our hotel. This was great. . Along the way we picked up numerous packages such that we had to turn around a couple of times, but that was not that bad. All in all, was it for me rather comfortable and the 19h went on rather quickly. But the staff didn’t speak one word English, so there was not really any communication.

The bus arrived 3 hours earlier. They had a van from meeting point to the actually parking bus to start the trip, but nobody explained anything before, they just said 'go here'. Our spot was OK and relatively comfortable.

Travelling by bus essentials

  • If you are planning to travel during the high season, weekends, or national holidays, booking your bus tickets in advance is highly recommended. The demand is at its highest, yet very often, the number of coaches serving the route remains the same. The earlier you reserve your seat, the better. On some routes, you need to secure your ticket more than a month in advance; on others, a couple-of-days advanced booking is enough. During such periods, try to book online beforehand whenever possible, as showing up at the bus station without a ticket may result in many-hours of waiting in the queue or leave you downright stranded.
  • VIP, 1st, Gold, and similar bus tickets are the most expensive option, but they provide a higher level of comfort. Normally the price of such tickets will include wide soft reclining seats, blankets, water and snacks or lunch, and sometimes some toiletries. Upper-class buses travel faster, make fewer stops during the route, and normally provide more spacious seating to their passengers and a better travel experience.
  • Not all buses have an on-board toilet, but generally, for all trips longer than three hours, all operators schedule a bathroom and/or a lunch stop. While operators definitely do their best to keep on-board toilets clean, the smell may be an issue sometimes. For longer trips, booking a seat a bit farther from the toilet may be a good idea. Also, using bathroom stops for your toilet needs is always better than trying to find your balance in an on-board toilet on the run.
  • If you travel by an air-con bus, make sure to pack layers. A hoodie, a warm scarf, or a beanie hat may prove a good idea. Air-conditioning on buses tends to be excessive, and running nose and sore throats abound after even not the longest bus rides.
  • Always use the security belts even if your bus ride attendant or driver does not insist on it. Your safety comes first – for you, for sure. All buses normally are equipped with security belts, but they may be fixed behind your seat. Take time to find the belt and fix it appropriately.
  • To avoid being disturbed by overhead lights, switched on during stops even at night, and too loud music or sound from the on-board entertainment system, have earplugs and a sleeping mask at hand.
  • As a courtesy to other passengers, avoid using strong perfumes or smelly foods. Some foods like cheeses or durians are forbidden to take on-board – check in advance. Alcohol is also prohibited on the majority of buses.
  • Note that if the bus requires refuelling en-route, passengers will be asked to get off the bus. Operators are not allowed to refuel with passengers on board due to safety reasons. Usually, it takes from 5 to 10 minutes and is often combined with a toilet/lunch stop.
  • If not stated otherwise in your tickets, arrive at the bus station 20-30 minutes before departure. It will give you enough time to find the departure platform and check-in. For international trips, you may need more time for check-in and border formalities.
