Will be arriving tomorrow Tuesday in Chiang Rai and after a brief visit wish to continue on to Chiang Mai in the same day, is it difficult to obtain a one way bus ticket on the same day of travel?
We just went to the bus station and caught the enxt bus leaving. There were plenty of seats and buses left regularly. Check what times they leave when you arrive and maybe book at that time.
Thanks for your reply, yes that is what I had planned to do, go to the bus station see what time I can get a bus, buy the ticket and then do some local sightseeing. Again, your reply is greatly appreciated.
I came here a couple of times for lunch and had some good food such as sweet and sour pork and beef in oyster sauce. The portions are a good size and the owners quite a nice guy. They also serve many western dishes such as burgers, salads and sandwiches plus the normal Thai fayre.
The border town of Mae Sai is one of the official overland border checkpoints for travel between Thailand and Myanmar.
After passing rows of shophouses, the road ends at the Sai River Bridge. There stood the Immigration & Custom building to Myannmar border. For some decades now the town has prospered, trading all kinds of goods from Burmese jade, gem & precious stones (genuine & fake), goods from China, etc.
The border with Burma, closed except to locals for almost for more than 40 years, is now open to foreign visitors and day trips can be made to the Burmese border town of Tachilek. You need your passport plus a photocopy and USD10.
Walk past until the end row of shops, turn into the small lane and there are many stalls selling food stuff all at a cheaper price compared to the main street. It is as busy as the main street. Most of the products are still from China.

Q: Green bus scheduel from Chiang Rai to Chiang Mai "Hi all, I recently checked the Green Bus website. Unfortunately, it wasn't in English. Does anyone know (roughly) the schedule..."
A: "It is fiffteen years since I took those buses, but still my answer is hopefully more useful than "bagusboy"'s. I don't recall them to go quite as often as every 30..."
