To get to the golden triangle from CHiang Saen is not too difficult.. you can get there by songathew or tuk-tuk--- the first option is the cheapest... once one of this vehicles is filled... with monks, people, baskets, chickens, veggies, anything.. then it leaves. it takes about 30 minutes to get there... the price may have been 20 baths - but i dont remember exactly.
The last one back is at around 3 PM - so try not to miss it

State run buses are the best buses to take in Thaialnd... they are also the cheapest and the safest. from Chiang Mai there's several buses to Chiang Rai every day (5-6 hours), roughly every hour or so - some of them are ordinary, others air-con. The price difference is minimal. To go towards the Chiang Saen (2-3 hours), for the Golden Triangle, there are several (rustic) buses too - then from Chiang Sean there's songathews.

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...
