Bus was easy to find, and the bus station offered everything possibly needed. We even got on one hour earlier bus as we arrived early. Bus driver was quite often checking mobile phone, once or twice even when overtaking. A bit scarred.

From Bangkok southern terminal to Kanchanaburi. The booking information advised to arrive 30 minutes before the departure time but due to unexpected circumstances we were at the ticket booth 10 minutes before the departure time so we were told we can take the next bus 30 minutes after. The ticket booth operators were helpful and the bus driver took care of loading the luggage into the bus without us asking. The trip took approximately 2h 30m.

The journey was comfortable and we arrived earlier than expected. I also had enough leg room which was convenient.

As often the driver stopped about 30 times to let people on or off or deliver packages. Part of how it works but it makes it an unnecessarily long journey. About halfway there a ten minute toilet break

We left late because the staff at the desk kept trying to find passengers. The driver didn't speak english and he kept shouting in thai to all passengers (foreigners for the most). No space for legs nor luggages and because of some apparently random stops (just for locals that paid at the moment) the bus was super full and we arrived even later. We came back with Go Family, much better.
