Travel from Chiang Rai to Chiang Mai by buses
Public buses are the cheapest ones and except some short distances local buses, most of them have air conditioning. But there are also many private bus companies in Thailan that often offer VIP bus marking fewer stops and generally a bit more comfortable. They offer better service on board and are sometimes (but far from always) quicker. To get to the islands some companies offer bus + ferry tickets. The bus is the transporation serving the most destinations in Thailand. You can almost go everywhere in Thailand by bus.

More about transportation in Thailand
Taking a night train in Thailand
The atmosphere of Thailand night trains with their restaurant car turned into a nightclub is truly amazing! It is often a memorable trip though you can't enjoy the landscape. To be sure to have a sleeper, it's recommended to book your tickets in advance via booking websites like 12Go.
Departures from Khao San Road
Khao San Road is known as the backpacker's area in Bangkok. Travel agencies and transportation companies offer bus or ferry + bus packages from Khao San Road to the popular Thai islands like Koh Tao, Koh Samui, Koh Phangan... but also to other destinations in the country.
Directs buses from Bangkok to Cambodia
There are direct buses from Bangkok to Phnom Penh or Sieam Reap (the city near Angkor) in Cambodia with border crossing included in the trip. Buses depart from Mo Chit Northern Bangkok BUS Terminal. The number of seats is limited so it is better to book in advance on 12Go.
Book your Thailand train tickets online
If you prefer to organize your trip and book your train tickets before departure, know that this is possible via the website12go that I personnally tested and validated. Advance booking is especially recommended for sleepers in night trains but can also be a good idea for some super Express trains.
