Fast, efficient travel from Chiang Mai to Chiang rai. Telephone ticket sufficient. The station is well laid out and the Green bus staff explain where to wait. Everything is written on the buses, so it's pretty easy. A small bottle of water is provided, which is appreciated. A little legroom is missing.

Really swanky VIP bus. Loads of leg room, banging AC, free bottle of water and snack, clean toilet on board and we arrived nearly an hour before expected. Brilliant
