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?

Answer summary

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.
