Pakse to Ubon Ratchathani Destination Reviews

None of the times on the 12GO website reflect the real time bus times. We had a ticket for 8:30 and they said the 9:30 bus is cancelled as it’s broken. We had to get the 3:30 which actually left at 2:50. We should have been contacted the night before to tell us our bus was to be cancelled. Bus was comfy and the drivers were really helpful though.

the follow up was OK, the girl who accompanied us at the border did a good job, the minivan in Thailand was OK: the Lao driver who brought us to the border was way below expectations: he drove an old pickup so our luggage had to be outside ( in the rain season, he stooped constantly, and was drinking constantly energy drinks: I wonder if he slept He drooped us of correctly, but we could not communicate:

I paid $23 before fees and taxes for a minivan but they put me on a bus instead with no explanation and no partial refund when the bus ticket was more than 50% less. The bus ride was okay though.

It’s average, Bus is good, but AC not properly working. And we are arrive 30 minutes before. Bus going on time. And everything is good. Seat not too much big, but is it OK?

It will get you from Pakse to Ubon, but not much more. We bought tickets in advance and arrived an hour early but we still had to sit in plastic seats that lined the aisle. The bus was also delayed 4 hours. AC was weak at best. However the driver and workers were very kind and nice.
