The operator didn't arrive on time, but it was out of his control - huge traffic jam and then flooding on the road (they handled it great, found another route the next day)

NOT as advertised! I will never trust 12Go again. I paid a premium to get a premium bus as the trip was long, 19 hrs. The sleeper bus as horribly old and filthy. Nothing like advertised!!! It also smelled horrible, filthy, musty and made it impossible to sleep. The staff were young and very polite and attentive. The pickup was 1.5 hrs late but drop off was 1 hr early. Which just meant they drove fast during the last half of the trip (a little scary at times, but most bus companies do this). They have a serious side gig of transporting items on this bus so our luggage was held inside the bus in the very back which was a little strange. I complained to 12Go about the condition of the bus with pictures but they just send the review link. I wish I could attach pictures to this review. Thoroughly gross!

No one spoke English on the bus. I tried to use google translate to chat with an attendant but they were dismissive and it was unclear when the bus would stop and when a toilet was available and when was the right time to get dinner/breakfast.

The travel by sleeper bus is overall is good. But there is one big problem. The driver stopped for a toilet brake only once on 17 hours drive.

The bus engine went out and we weren’t informed until we woke up and found out for ourselves that we had been standing still all night. Overall the bus was 10 hours delayed. There were very few stops for toilet breaks, and the food we got was very local. Only rice and some vegetables that me and my friends were safe to eat. It was ok with the overall comfort of the bus, except for the occasional turning off air condition.

If you a western the space would probably be to small for you. I am a female traveling by herself and felt a bit uncomfortable during the trip. Also protect fragile stuff cause my whole make up bag broke cause they trowed it out. And they don't speak English so they put you i a hall and have to figure out everything yourself

The trip itself was really fine. The beds are confortable and were very clean. I slept very well with few interruptions. However, it is true that the driving was really fast and scary and at the begining they kept stopping to pick up random things, like, no exageration, each 10 minutes. But appart from that everything is perfect. We arrived at the expected time. Also they stopped for us to get dinner. It is also true that they changed us the departure time to two and a half hours before and only with a few hours noticed.

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.
