ORIGINAL POSTER

I will do a border bounce form Bangkok to Cambodia tonight with the well known Bangkok Visa Service. Anybody did before? What to expect? How long did it take in total? I hope Maximum 12 Hours in total. How was the ride? How is the VIP bus? Is the aircon in the bus annoying and I should take a long pants and sweatshirt with me? Anything else to know?

TLDR : Answer Summary

A user is preparing for a border bounce from Bangkok to Cambodia and is seeking information on what to expect, including the duration of the trip, comfort in the VIP bus, and recommendations for clothing due to air conditioning. Comments suggest to consider taking a sweatshirt for comfort, clarify which visa service is being used, and emphasize the importance of prior planning.

I've used them once, they get the job done. Its a long slow day tho, 11ish hours. They stop once on the way there and on the way back. Which seems a waste of time.

It's just a regular minivan, normal aircon temp, I wore shorts and t-shirt and wasn't cold.
