“I've been using 12Go Asia for the past 10 years to book all my trips around Southeast Asia. Buses, ferries, trains, basically everything... The booking system is extremely clear, intuitive, and user-friendly. Recently, I even had to cancel a booking due to my own mistake, and they refunded the full amount back to my card on the very same day.”
“I booked tickets from UK for speedboat/ferry from Koh Samui to Koh Tao. Whole experience good, immediate voucher, easy check in. I then requested change my return ticket to a different time ... customer service were quick to respond and happily accommodated my request in less than 24 hrs.”
“Was great using 12Go, easy to use, very user friendly, their support is so helpful and fast responding... they send me a pdf, works great. Once in the train system, just show passport and off I go through the gates to the train.”
“Both the booking procedure and follow up were first class. Company went the extra mile in chasing and getting us an unexpected refund on a trip which had to be cancelled as a result of the recent cyclone/flooding in Asia. Would definitely go through them again.”
“Really pleased with their user friendly website and choice of trains, availability etc. as well as the support team... very friendly and efficient in interacting with the very technically challenging Indian Railway booking portal for overseas users.”
“I travelled with 12go at least seven times in two months, and it always went wonderfully well!... travelling in Thailand with 12go makes everything much easier and safer, not only in terms of departure but also in terms of arriving at your destination.”
“It took a while to get the confirmation, but the support staff are very friendly and helpful and help me resolve this quickly.”
“What I liked was there were plenty of time options, on the same day, so it was easy to find a bus that suited our timetable. We had to use the support team for one small issue but that was resolved quickly.”

— Mission & approach
Our goal is to connect the world door-to-door — from local transfers to long-haul flights — under a single standard ticket. We believe travelers should be able to compare every viable option for a journey on one screen, book in one transaction, and travel with one e-ticket.
To do this, 12Go integrates directly with transportation operators via API rather than reselling through intermediaries. This gives travelers live availability, accurate pricing, and direct confirmation. It also lets smaller regional carriers reach an international audience they could not reach alone. Our strategy is to bring service providers together rather than compete with them — passengers, operators, fleet management systems, travel agencies, and payment gateways all connect through a single entry point.
— Team
The 12Go team includes over 200 people working across product, engineering, customer support, partnerships, and operations. Our leadership combines backgrounds in IT, travel, finance, and logistics. The team is distributed across the globe, with members working remotely from locations across Southeast Asia and Europe, and a lively office in Bangkok for colleagues in Thailand.
