Tentang Mekong Transfer
Dua perkara utama yang menjadikan perjalanan dengan van sangat menarik ialah tawaran pelbagai pilihan destinasi dan harga yang berpatutan. Tidak semua van menawarkan keselesaan yang terbaik, ruang kaki atau ruang bagasi yang mencukupi, tetapi dua aspek ini menjadikannya berbaloi. Selain itu, van sentiasa menyediakan laluan baharu ke destinasi baharu yang membuka jalan kepada pengusaha bas besar jika perlu, atau ia kekal menjadi satu-satunya pengangkutan untuk membawa anda ke sana. Selalunya, van menawarkan perkhidmatan yang lebih pantas daripada bas besar, jadual waktu yang lebih fleksibel dan lebih mudah memenuhi keperluan pengembara dari segi jadual – sekiranya berlaku peningkatan sementara dalam permintaan disebabkan cuti hujung minggu yang panjang atau cuti umum, van dapat menambah lebih banyak kenderaan dalam perkhidmatan harian mereka dengan lebih mudah berbanding pengendali lain. Ketahui bahawa kadangkala van beroperasi dari stesen atau terminal van mereka sendiri, atau ia mempunyai tempat khusus di terminal bas yang lebih besar. Sentiasa semak tempat berlepas dan ketibaan van anda kerana ia tidak semestinya terletak di stesen bas utama.
Mekong Transfer adalah salah satu pengendali yang perlu anda pertimbangkan sekiranya anda akan mengembara dengan van. Ia menyediakan perkhidmatan van yang boleh dipercayai dan menawarkan tiket dengan tempahan dalam talian yang mudah dan selamat.

Harga Tiket & Kelas Van Mekong Transfer
Berlainan dengan kereta api atau bas yang lebih besar, van jarang menawarkan pilihan kelas tiket kepada anda. Semua tempat duduk adalah sama – sama ada ianya standard, VIP, atau apa sahaja. Apa yang berbeza, bagaimanapun, adalah jenis van itu sendiri. Sesetengah van hanya memuatkan 9-10 orang penumpang. Bagi para pengembara, ini memberikan tempat duduk yang lebih luas, lebih banyak ruang dan perjalanan yang lebih selesa. Van yang memuatkan sehingga 15 penumpang juga masih lagi bagus tetapi bersedialah untuk berkorban dari segi ruang kaki dan siku, dan selalunya - ruang untuk bagasi anda juga. Kadangkala, ia adalah idea yang bagus untuk membeli dua tempat duduk dan bukannya satu bagi memastikan perjalanan yang lebih selesa – namun berbaloi untuk anda semak dengan pengendali sama ada mereka membenarkannya bagi laluan anda. Sebelum anda menempah tiket van anda, baca ulasan mengenai perkhidmatan van Mekong Transfer untuk mengetahui apa yang boleh dijangkakan daripadanya.
Perjalanan dengan Van: Kebaikan & Keburukan
Kebaikan Perjalanan Van
- Van boleh menjadi satu-satunya cara untuk sampai ke beberapa destinasi terpencil, pekan atau kampung yang lebih kecil yang tidak dihubungkan dengan bas besar mahupun kereta api.
- Van juga boleh membawa anda ke beberapa pulau yang dihubungkan dengan tanah besar melalui pengangkutan feri yang membawa kereta, yang tidak membawa bas besar, tetapi masih menerima kenderaan kecil lain seperti van juga.
- Oleh kerana saiznya yang lebih kecil berbanding bas besar, van lebih mudah untuk bergerak di atas jalan raya. Kadangkala, ia menelan masa perjalanan yang lebih singkat, terutamanya jika destinasi anda tidak berada terlalu jauh.
- Walaupun van mempunyai perhentian rasmi dalam perjalanan, ia juga masih boleh menurunkan anda di tempat yang lebih mudah - anda tidak perlu pergi ke terminal, anda hanya cuma perlu bertanya kepada pemandu anda. Ketahui bahawa mereka mungkin tidak mengizinkannya, tetapi dalam banyak kes, mereka akan beri kerjasama. Ia boleh menjimatkan masa dan wang anda yang sepatutnya anda luangkan untuk keluar dari terminal sama ada dengan berjalan kaki atau dengan teksi.
Keburukan Perjalanan Van
- Van yang memuatkan lebih ramai penumpang mungkin akan terasa agak sempit. Jangkakan ruang gerak yang terhad untuk kaki dan siku anda. Sesetengah van mengehadkan bagasi untuk satu tiket kepada satu beg. Jika anda mempunyai lebih banyak beg, beg pakaian atau beg galas, anda mungkin diminta membeli tiket berasingan untuk bagasi anda, yang akan menjadikan perjalanan anda dua kali lebih mahal.
- Tidak semua van bergerak mengikut jadual. Di laluan tertentu, van hanya akan bergerak apabila sudah penuh sahaja. Semak dengan operator anda sebelum membeli tiket, jika tidak, anda mungkin perlu menunggu lebih lama daripada yang dijangkakan, sehinggalah van itu penuh.
- Jarang kita mendengar pemandu memandu secara melulu dalam pengangkutan lain selain van, ia kerap berlaku. Sesetengah syarikat ada memasang unit peranti kawalan kelajuan pada kenderaan mereka, tetapi masih ada kebarangkalian untuk kita mendengar unit peranti ini berbunyi ‘bip’ di sepanjang perjalanan di mana pemandu van itu langsung tidak mempedulikan amaran had laju tersebut. Sentiasa ingat untuk memakai tali pinggang keledar anda semasa dalam perjalanan dengan van. Walaupun kadangkala anda perlu bersusah-payah untuk mencari di mana tali pinggang keledar anda.
- Bagi mereka yang terdedah kepada mabuk kereta, ada satu nasihat yang baik untuk anda: makan ubat anda setengah jam sebelum perjalanan van, terutamanya jika laluan anda itu adalah berliku-liku. Anda lebih mudah untuk berasa mabuk ketika menaiki van berbanding bas.

Kamil BThe journey from Chiang Mai to Chiang Rai was disappointing. We arrived about one hour late, and instead of being dropped off at Chiang Rai Bus Terminal 1, we were left somewhere in the city centre.
Our hotel was close to Terminal 1, so we had to take an additional taxi. The ride itself was fine, but the delay and wrong drop-off point made the experience much less convenient. 2/5.

Helder APoor information regarding trip details.
4.5h trip on a minivan with broken suspension from border to the north of Laos to catch a train. Me and a random local shared 1 and half seat for the whole time as we were in the backseat with a huge amount of luggage that was taking half of his sewt .
The service from Laos border to the guesthouse and from guesthouse to bus station was perfect.
The guesthouse was really poor, had huge spider nets and bugs everywhere, toilet was really damaged and dirty, no toilet paper, only the bed was actually clean and comfortable.
The 12go support was helpful and very quick to reply.
After all, I arrived around scheduled time, but it was a very painful trip to go through. Not recommended.

Lucas EThe transfer between the different bus is well organised. They are used to do it. Just one problem about the train. They didn't book our train ticket in advance, then it was fully book and we had to take the next train and we arrive 3 hours later. It's happening, but they didn't warn us earlier, they informed us at the border in Laos, so to late to find any other option. Exept this problem, everything was ok, and we recommend.

Emma HScary drive to the border, a very fast one handed drive whilst the driver was on his phone.
Stopped to complete visa's for those that needed, and fill in some paperwork. Also given the chance to change some money (appalling exchange rate but we would need money for the over night stop).
No-one to meet us or explain next step over the border. All other tour groups left. Eventually herded into 2 of the slowest, oldest buses to the pier to meet the slow boat.

Janette NThis boat is a local means of transportation, not a tourist activity. During the trip, many backpackers treated it like a party, occupying all the seats without considering local passengers. I saw women with small children forced to stay in the engine area due to lack of seats. I gave up my seat more than once and eventually had to travel there myself. An experience that raises important questions about respect and responsibility when traveling.

Tobias BPick up time was between 4:30 and 5:00. We were picked up at 5:50 (without getting any notification).
The van from Huay Xai to Luang Namtha was too full, so there was not a seat for each person. We were sitting there squeezed and partly Not on a real chair but on a stool without a backrest. We were not allowed to take the two free seats in the front as these saved for two others who jumped on the van a bit later. I assume they paid less, but got the better seats (or least real seats).

Maud PI am not the one to complain but honestly we had a very poor experience. I booked the mini van from chiang mai to Chiang rai and not greenbus because it was much faster. But then, they informed me the arrival time would be an hour later than what we booked. Since it was because of work on the road it's ok, it's not their fault but it should have been indicated in the booking. Then our driver stopped 4 times! Once for gas, once for coffee, once she wanted to stop for lunch for 30 minutes but the whole group said no (thankfully). And then a final stop for toilets 25 minutes before arrival... in the end we arrived at 13.30 instead of 11.30. Terrible experience.

Lukas MThe operator arrived on time, however the vehicle was too small for the number of passengers and luggage. We sat crammed in a small car (not a bus or van as advertised) for 1.5 hours, that was freezing cold. During the drive the driver seemed to microsleep at least once, creating an uncomfortable feeling and risky situations. Especially considering the relatively high price, the service we received seemed poor.

On the positive side: we had booked a trip to Chiang Rai, but we were able to negociate Chiang Khong destination (for an additional fee, of course).

Vincent OIn Thailand everything went smooth. We were helped with filling out the paperwork needed for crossing the border. We were one of the first to actually cross the border and it was very helpful we already filled in our paperwork. Across the border we were picked up and with a van and it was a very bumpy 4 hour drive to the train station with 1 stop. We arrived at the train station 1 hour early and everything went smooth.

Jeremy GEverything was perfect and well organized. We arrived a bit early before the border opened so the drive stopped in a hotel nearby where we were able to fill the form and exchange our currency with him to have perfect USD (not folder or anything) so they could be accepted by the agent without any issue.
Another person took care of us while crossing the border and everything went smoothly. We crossed way faster than other people since everything was already prepared to get our Visa. And we got enough time to get Breakfast and buy lunch for the boat at the pier. The boat was also an amazing expérience. I definitely recommend this trip, especially since it makes it so easy and quick to cross the border.

Shannon OWhen I booked a 12 hour van ride, I thought it was just that. I knew there’d be stops on the way, what I didn’t realise was how many times you’d change vehicles!
Picked up in a minivan, taken to the Thai border. Shuttle bus from the Thai border to the Laos border. Be warned: even if you have an evisa, you have to fill out a form with the same info as when you applied for the visa, AND pay a 50 baht ‘service charge’ AND a 20 baht tourist fee - cash only.
Then you get on a minibus for 4.5-5 hours including breaks. Then for some reason you change minibuses 5 minutes from the train station and arrive at Natuey station. Then it’s a 1.5-2 hour wait for the train (why was no train mentioned before booking?!) - be warned, it’s airport hand luggage type security searches. They’ll take away pressurised cans like deodorant and insect repellent. There’s no air con, it’s cash only and no ATM. Horrific experience.
Then it’s 2.5 hours on the train. It then proved incredibly difficult to get a LOCA taxi from the Luang Prabang station but we eventually did in the end, 100,000 kip cheaper than the minibuses the train station offered.
Overall, would not do this again. Door to door it was nearly 14 hours. Too many changes, not communicated BEFORE booking. Fellow travellers felt the same.

Michael HThe transfers from our hotel in Chiang Rai to the border were good and the people kept us informed. However, the immigration process at the border is a nightmare; takes forever and every step seems to cost more and more money. We have mixed reviews on the slow boat itself. You are crammed on with about 200 other people, with very little leg room. It’s a cool experience, and great views going down the river, but the novelty of the boat itself wears off by the end of the first day, and the second day is just a struggle.

Sho KReally great service, everything was explained well both in email and in person. Things went smoothly. Also very helpful to be dropped off at the hotel since there’s limited Tuktuks in Huay Xai.
Note: it’s good to be in Huay Xai the night before your slowboat to be able to get a seat.
The cafe you get picked up in Chiang Mai is also really nice.
