Has anyone here taken a bus from Pattaya to Vientiane? How safe are the busses & drivers driving this route? Alternatively, what's the best way to get from Pattaya to Vientiane and rough costs if anyone here knows? Fly, bus, train?
I'm assuming that you need to take a bus to Nong Khai then another bus from Nong Khai to Vientiane, correct? Is there a VIP bus & roughly how much are the prices? Does the bus depart from North Pattaya Rd bus terminal? I believe we also need to have USD$40 or 1,500 baht on us for a visa to enter Laos for up to 30 days.
