The atmosphere on Thailand's night trains, with their dining cars turned into nightclubs, is truly amazing! It is often a memorable journey, even though you don't see much of the landscape. To be sure to have a sleeper, it's best to book your tickets in advance via websites like 12Go.
Khao San Road is Bangkok's backpacker district. Travel agencies and transport companies offer buses or combined bus + ferry tickets from Khao San Road to popular islands such as Koh Tao, Koh Samui, Koh Phangan... as well as to other destinations in the country.
There are direct buses from Bangkok to Phnom Penh or Siem Reap (the town near Angkor) in Cambodia, border crossing included. Buses leave from Mo Chit, Bangkok's Northern Bus Terminal. Seats are limited, so it is best to book in advance on 12Go.
If you prefer to plan ahead and book your train tickets before you leave, you can do so on the 12Go website, which we have tested and recommend. Booking in advance is especially recommended for sleeper berths on night trains, but can also be a good idea for some Special Express trains.
