Orell S

We needed to change bus 10 minutes before arrival and then ended up at the bus station but our ticket said a destination roughtly 5km earlier. Apart from that the ride was nice and there was a break with a free meal which was good!

We had top bunks across from each other. No windows, no outlets, no dining car... not the best of trains, but at least there was AC and you could lie down flat to sleep.

The ac is great, they even give us a blanket. Although the arm rest is so high and after a while it was really uncomfortable and hurting me, I’m 5,7 so I’m tall but still.. so I didn’t have a good position to keep. You can’t recline the chair much also. The lights are on the whole time.

Though I have a disability, I was able to find my way around with help (verbal directions) from other Thai, especially the staffed personnel.

Terrible busride, we went to Chumpung the airco was so cold my daughter and I where freezing, we asked for more blankets but there where non. It was 16 degrees inside?? So we both could not sleep. They also forgot to mention where we had to get out so when we stopped it was the end and we should have gone out 2 hours before. At 4 in the morning we where in the middel of nowhere. Luckly the super nice stewardess who gave us cookies and water called someone wgo brought us to another busstop. We had to wait untill 07.30 to go back to the place we should go out before. Pain in my neck (its build for small Thai not big Dutch woman) shoulders and butt, the chairs are poor we arived at 09.30 at our point of destanation instead of 05.00. We where happy with the stewardess, but be aware no one speaks English. I would not do it again ever
