Going to Thailand and Vietnam
Buses
Overnight buses and day buses can be booked if you want to extend your travel to Thailand or Vietnam. Travel agencies can be spotted near hotels or malls to buy your bus tickets ahead of time.
I spotted a travel agency near the Riverside. The buses also park there at night to wait for the passengers. Tuktuk will pick you up at your hotel and send you to the bus stop. It is part of the fare that you paid or the travel agencies already arrange this for the guests.
