chiang mai Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 You would need to take at least two buses, probably three. The first would be Phuket/Bangkok, the second Bangkok/Chiang Mai and the third, Chiang Mae/Sai Sai - it's possible that you might find a direct bus from Bangkok to Mae Sai, don't know for sure but I would guess doubtful.

Maybe Cmai thinks this is the centre of the world-but s/he is quite wrong. there ARE various direct buses Bkk-MSai-and many more via Chiang Rai (a much, much shorter route), with an easy onward change. The main problem is in BKk itself: you have to find away from Sai Tai to Mochit-there are citybuses and minivans for that and of course a few 1000 taximeters. If you take the earliest nightbus from HKT youll arr in BKK before 6.00 (am, yes) and can still find a daytime bus onward to CRAI easy enough.

Please humbly forgive my naive ignorance, I am dreadfully sorry and hope I have not offended and that the OP now has at least some guidance in this matter.

You have to change in Bangkok I'm afraid. Edited January 21, 2010 by bellste Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
