Hi all. How long does it take from Mukdahan to Savannakhet by bus? Tried looking but not a great deal of info about it. Cheers

Answer summary

Traveling by bus from Mukdahan, Thailand to Savannakhet, Laos can take around 30 minutes of actual travel time. However, the overall journey time may vary significantly due to the time spent at Thai and Laos immigration, which can depend on the number of people crossing the border.

Its Thai and Laos immigration that takes the time depending on volume of people. Actual travelling time is about 30mins.

They are on opposite sides of the Mekong so the buses each side of the Border Control/Bridge will take under an hour in total, I’d suggest. How long it takes you to get through Immigration then catch the (Laos side bus) is another matter?

The one time I did it, they bloody left us behind at Immigration!!!
