If you're heading to Thailand from neighbouring countries, you'll also benefit from fairly frequent regular bus and minivan services.

Long-distance fares can be even higher than air travel, but unlike air travel, large luggage is included.

Buses are also a convenient form of transport for travelling short distances between cities close to the border.

Where to find tickets?

As there are dozens of different companies offering connections, the best way to find tickets is via search engines where you can buy your ticket straight away.

The most used search engine in Thailand is 12go.asia and busonlineticket.co.th is also usable.
