Garry NThe wrong time for the departure, not bus 45 and no information from you stating how to obtain the bus ticket and not as you said to scan the QR code to the driver. Everything from travelling by train and bus you give wrong information.

Kevin I was dropped off at the Vientiane-nong khai border to get my laos leaving stamp. Whenever I got through the security I looked and waited for the bus. But it was gone. I got no phone call or nothing.

Robert I found the communication to be a series of pre-prepared responses, without addressing my expressed concerns. I find the uncertainty to be very disconcerting.

Eugenio LThe bus journey from Vientiane to Udon Thani typically lasts around **2 hours**, but immigration stops can extend the trip. Be prepared for a lack of clear signage in both Laos and Thailand. When entering Laos, you'll need to complete a two-part arrival/departure document. Keep the unused portion for your departure to save time.
Out trip took **3 hours**, and some passengers were left behind because the bus only waits for a limited time. The bus itself was outdated, with exhaust fumes causing the windows to be opened and the A/C to be turned off.
A key difference between bus and train travel is that on the bus, you must retrieve and carry your baggage during immigration, unlike on a train. The driver only spoke Laotian which it seems odd considering the majority of the passengers were tourists that spoke their native language and English. We were fortunate to have a few Thai citizens translate for us.
