About Sawadee Surin

Bus is a convenient way of travel no matter whether you need to get to a neighboring town a couple of hours away or venture further afield crossing the whole country. Whatever your budget, buses have you covered. Express buses offer the most affordable ticket price for travellers who have very little money to spend. VIP options are geared toward those who do not want to compromise on comfort. Before you jump on a bus, make sure you choose the type of service which suits you best. For a long-haul trip look for a VIP or first-class coach which provides non-stop service to your destination or just call a minor number of stations along the way. Express or local buses in many cases may prove an acceptable choice for shorter trips, but longer rides are often not the best buy. Study the timetable before going as many long-haul destinations are served by night buses, and some offer wider seats or sleeper berths for such travels. Make an online reservation for your bus ticket with Sawadee Surin. Other travellers’ reviews will help you to choose the best ticket and coach class.

Sawadee Surin Ticket Prices & Bus Classes

One of the best things about bus travel is that you can almost tailor-make your trip adjusting it to your requirements for privacy and comfort. Different classes and types of buses cater to the different needs of travellers. The cheapest trips are normally offered by standard-class buses. They may be called local, express or ordinary. These are a good choice for shorter trips. Sleepers or VIP coaches are good both for longer and overnight trips. They may offer berths or wide soft reclining seats, sometimes with built-in massage options, blankets, soft drinks, and snacks, or more substantial meals on board or during toilet or refuelling stops. Travelling by night buses allows you to save on a hotel room, but to ensure the most comfortable ride do choose the class of your bus wisely. Prices always depend on the distance you ride and the type of coach. For some, even shorter trips, it is worth investing some extra money and buying a seat on a VIP bus as it can save you twice as much time as you spend travelling by an ordinary bus.

Travel by Bus: Pros & Cons

Pros of Bus Travel

  • Bus is the best choice to get to destinations that are not connected by rail or planes. The network of buses often covers almost the whole country, and their routes are well and long-established.
  • Opposite to air travel and sometimes rail travel, taking a bus does not require arriving at the bus station much in advance. Check-in, even on international routes, does not take much time. Luggage allowances are usually very traveller-friendly, and the fee for extra luggage, if limits are set, is normally not very high.
  • Bus tickets can be more affordable compared to air or fast train tickets. There is always a choice of ticket classes for all pockets. Cheaper standard options may be a bit slow and do not offer top comfort, but anyway acceptable and bring you to your destination. On longer routes, toilets or toilet stops as well as snacks, water, and sometimes toiletries and blankets are almost always included in the price.
  • If you are ready to spend more, some VIP coaches offer seating comparable to business class on a plane with wide soft reclining seats, blankets, fewer passengers, and many other perks to make your trip a pleasant journey.

Cons of Bus Travel

  • Newer intercity bus terminals are very often located out of the city close to bigger highways to allow buses to avoid city congestion. Unfortunately, it may create extra challenges for travellers, too. Getting to such a terminal may be a problem as in some destinations there are restrictions on vehicles allowed to enter the terminal, and you will have to use special carriers to get there. This results in higher costs as prices may be inflated. Also do calculate extra time if you are travelling during rush hours, especially if you are not familiar with the traffic situation at your starting point.
  • Buses are probably the means of transport which runs out of schedule more often than trains or planes. They are heavily dependent on the road situation which sometimes can be unpredictable – accidents, road construction works, detours, etc. This is especially true for travels during weekends, high season, or national holidays. Do keep this in mind and do not plan tight connections.
  • Travelling on certain routes or during the most popular periods may require advanced booking. Bear in mind that it is not always possible to show up at the bus station and hop on the next bus – tickets may well be all sold out, so organize your trip accordingly.

Sitting in seat number 1. No room to put legs out at all. Seats have no padding and can not be reclined at all. I will not use this service again.

We had smiles, snacks and water, bus was on time and comfort (but not clean at all !). We travelled in VIP. Toilets are very smelly and inconfortable for a woman, that’s the big problem for every bus company here.

We used this service from Mo Chit to Kantarak (Seasaket). It was a simple but very comfortable ride with a packed lunch, water, blanket, and USB charging port. I have heard of delays on other routes, but my flight was not delayed, and I would definitely use this service again if the opportunity arises.

We had a very bad experience from Surin to Mochit North Bus Terminal, almost 2 hours late! The Nakhon Chaiay bus from Bangkok to Chiang Mai is almost never late! I will never use Sawadisrin bus again!

This trip there were no blankets available and the toilet was extremely smelly. Bus was 1.5hrs late which would effect passengers with connecting transport. Other than that trip was good

Unpleasant smell coming from the toilet during the whole trip, one hour and a half late at the start, partly compensated during the journey, arrived with only fifteen minutes delay but big stress for my connection to Ayutthaya

The double seats have more legroom than the single but both are very comfortable. The meal was unexpected but appreciated as I missed breakfast. Bus ran a little late but nothing too long. Air-con got too cold for me but there were blankets available. The only downside was the toilet OK for males but not for females. I had no problems with the trip would recommend

Chose a front single seat to have a view of the drive but the windshield had big stickers that totally blocked my view. Other double decker buses didn’t have them. Snack was ok but toilet was smelly and too full of buckets. Bus left and arrived on time and driver was cautious and careful.

Although the bus trip itself was good, departure was at 1115 and not 1025 as shown on your website. Arrival in Mochit was at 1650. When my lady friend inquired as to bus departure time from Prakhon Chai at the Sawasdee Surin office in Prakhon Chai, the man on the desk was rude to her.
