GetVanGo makes independent travel in North Thailand easier than ever

CHIANG MAI, Thailand - July 26, 2017 - PRLog -- For those in the know, private minivans have long been one of the best options for getting around Chiang Mai and North Thailand. GetVanGo now makes it easier than ever for independent travellers to find and book a van and driver for one or more days.

Minivans are a long-time fixture on the Thai travel scene, used for everything from airport transfers to multi-day trips around the country. They are comfortable and economical, and offer the independent traveller maximum freedom and convenience. It's like self-drive - but without having to worry about traffic regulations, navigation and parking (and with a lot more space for people or luggage!)

But until recently it hasn't always been easy finding a van and driver when you need one. GetVanGo is aiming to change that with their booking platform, providing a valuable service for travellers - and a source of customers for local van drivers.

GetVanGo's online booking application puts travellers directly in touch with a growing pool of independent, professional minivan drivers. Travellers provide basic details about their trip requirement - when and where they want to be picked up, duration of their trip, and a rough outline of their travel plan - and within a short time the system will find and assign them a driver and van.

Once their trip begins, travellers can relax and enjoy the ride, knowing that they are in the hands of professional drivers, with excellent driving histories, who know the region well. They are free to change their plans at any time to take advantage of travel opportunities they find along the way.

GetVanGo launched the first version of their platform in late 2016. The service was an immediate hit with visitors from neighbouring Malaysia and Singapore where similar transport options exist. It's been catching on with European and American visitors too. Based on customer feedback, they have recently released a revised version of their booking application - and it's simpler and quicker than ever. Travellers can access the application at the GetVanGo website, https://www.getvango.com

GetVanGo currently services North Thailand, including Chiang Rai, Pai and Mae Hong Son, with drivers based in Chiang Mai. They plan to expand to other parts of the country soon.
