Thaising Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 (edited) Just go to Morchit northen bus station and book Bangkok-Chiang Rai-Mae Sai. Need not book in advance during off season, bus depart hourly every evening to Mae Sai. Edited July 31, 2006 by Thaising Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thohts Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 Why, pray tell, do you want to take a bus? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
my friend I Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 It takes about 14 hours. If no bus to Mae Sai, get a Chiang Rai bus. There is a bus every 15 minutes from CR to Mae Sai. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calibanjr. Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 I definitely would look at flying AirAsia to Chiang Rai (around 1500 THB) then a bus or song thaeow or whatever to Mae Sai. You're looking at a 14 hr bus ride, probably 600 THB anyway, 900 VIP. , but just a debilitating bus ride, IMO. I'm a relatively durable traveler, but those long bus rides really take it out of me.

thohts Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 RT to Chiang Rai on Air Asia is about 3,300 including tax. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
