Hello all, I have been in Thailand for 4 years now and would really like to leave for Songkran. I do not live far from Bangkok so the train journey there is not too long (not Pattaya)! Can people please provide the best routes and prices for a journey there and across the border. I would not mind a train or coach, no minivans or tuktuks or taxis. I have done some research yet have not found what I am looking for, thank in advance,
-Tom

I heard the casino buses to Poipet would be a good idea but cannot find any decent time tables or times?

geez come on please, I plan to leave 2moro from

Hua Lamphong

then the Casino bus from Lumphini, but I don't know where in Lumphini it departs. Once there I want to get the cheapest transport, so bus to Siem Reap and I THINK the visa is 15 USD? A little help please...

Bus from MorChit to Arun or Trat and cross the border. Visa is $20 but more if you pay in Baht. Buses are hourly and approx 250 baht. The Poipet border is open until 8pm. How are you unable to garner this information from the interwebs?

Maybe if you were a little more polite then you may get more help?

I recall this article of direct bus service from BKK to Cambodia, Siem Reap or PP. Don't know a thing about it.

Maybe if you had planned a bit earlier you would not be facing a last minute panic - Songkran has, after all, been on the calendar for sometime.

I am off to Siem Reap tomorrow - booked it a month ago.

Have you considered flying ?

Next time, plan ahead a little.
