Green bus, far more comfortable and safer than a van. Book at least a week in advance for a VIP seat (they do sell out). It is a long day, if you're not up for ~12 hours break the trip and overnight in Mae Sai. Cheap hotels, reasonable sort of market and food. Tachilek itself is only slightly more favorable than cancer but if you want to do something different visit the casino (about a 15 min ride) it makes for a good drinking story :)

Not KL but Penang this year and it will be the same deal: copy of hotel reservarion or a copy of your lease.

oh and Nakhon nowhere is south east of Chiang Mai :)

555+ yep... you've just comfirmed to me that you are :)

are you retarded Jeremiah? it says enter before, not that you get 3 months.

@Ellis *****************************

no probs.

no, Im still right, still no such thing as a 3 month tourist visa.

valid for a single entry within 3 months, yes, not valid for stay for 3 months. 60 days which can be extended a further 30 days at immigration.

No such thing as a 3 month tourist visa. 60 day, Vientiane or Penang

Experience or not it's always better to act within side the rules, it may not affect future visas/ entries now but it may well do so in the future.
