The bus didn’t have light to read. We didn’t do any stop for going to the toilet in more than 6h.

The trip did not happen because the bus was cancelled because of flooding in Nan. But the Green Bus staff at the Chiang Mai Bus Terminal were very good in giving me a refund.

air conditioner temperature control is always too cold, we have to wear enough to survive. I have traveled many times on the bus this route, with no one exception. could you let me know why? and doesn't this line operationer cherish the fuel? this trip seems that the filter of the air conditioner was dirty, I smelt the dust.
