Hi Stray Peeps
I'm looking into booking the Full Moon but also want to add on the Bucket Pass so i can go 2the Full Moon party but i'm put off by the fact it's unguided and i'll be travelling on my own :( just wanted to know if u find alot of solo travellers make friends and team up with people they met up on the longer trips and go on the Bucket Pass with them. If this is the case then i'd b alot happier to go on the Bucket Pass unguided coz i'd have some1 to help me avoid getting lost on the Thai islands! Can you let me know if this seems to be the case coz i dnt wanna miss out on all that neon paint drinking out of buckets full moon parrty fun! :)

Hi, I and a few friends are arriving in Bangkok Thailand 24/25 of June and plan to stay for 3 weeks. We have booked accommodation for the full moon party (5 days in Ko Phangan) but would like to travel to some of the other islands and also to Laos - returning to Bangkok for our return flight to UK. Can you suggest an itinerary - a friend travelled recommended your company as she travelled with you last year. Many thanks.

Hello!
I'm booking a Stray pass for August, super excited. I thinking either "The Big Wat" or "The Full Moon". I'm finding it pretty hard to decide which one though, does anyone have any pointers? Also I'm 23yr female but travelling on my own, my boyfriend is pretty unhappy about this, anyone have any suggestions to calm him?
Cheers!

Hi, I have been looking into the 'Big Wat' pass - it looks amazing but I think I would be looking to travel at a much more leisurely pace. I understand the coach is 'jump on/jump off' but was wondering if most people on the tour stay on for the minimum number of days (as in the itinerary,) or actually stop off at different points and do there own thinig?
How often does the bus pick up form each point?
I apologise if this information is on the website elsewhere but i couldn't find it myself!
Thanks!

Hi everyone,
Just wondering if you can help with a question about transport across the Thai/Lao border from Chiang Khong to Luang Namtha via Huay Xai. I have booked the leg from Chiang Mai to Chiang Khong on Tuesday 20th March, and the leg from Huay Xai to Luang Namtha the next day, but am unsure about how you actually make the journey between Chiang Khong and Luang Namtha.
Thanks for any help.

Hi there!
Will the timetable be the same during the main season(dec,jan)? Or will the buses drive more frequently during that time so that it would be possible to stay at one place for 2-3 days?
Thank you for your help!

Hi,
I am hoping to do the Phone pass starting in Pakse. Is this a round trip -i.e. will I end up back in Pakse?
Is there any chance this pass will be included in the sale soon. I am currently travelling with Stray NZ....does Stray asia work the same in terms of accomodation, i.e. if I stay longer than the obligatory overnight stops in each place am I responsible for booking my own accomodation?
Thanks!

Hi, I was wondering if I can use Stray Mate Code to buy Stray Asia pass? I got the code from online, KL3909, but it was specified for Stray NZ.
