Mochit Bus Terminal to Phuket Destination Reviews
AS
Andrea SWe ended up being 4 hours late to our destination with little communication on timings. The first bus was cramped, very hard to sleep in and we were only given a small bottle of water and a cake at the start which isn’t great for what ended up being a 20 hour journey!

Pierre MThe stewardess did not tell the other people to stop watching movies on their phones loudly. It is a night bus. The rest stop used to be in an AC hall with food served on the table. Now you have to queue some mediocre food with limited to 2 servings. Not at all the same as before. People stood outside the bus (farang) and smoked marijuana so when they came back to the bus it smelt bad.

Leandro DThe service was great, but unfortunately the driver stopped so much an the lay over took to long. They said I arrived 11:50. But this was 16:00. This made my trip a bit uncomfortable. But for the rest everything was top!

Aiden JI had to pay an extra 600 baht for mini van to Patong. I paid for the full trip on 12Go said nothing about extra money. They sent the bus back to Bangkok and said you have to get shared minivan from here. So I had no other choice but to pay the extra. It should be put on the listing as Bangkok to Surat Thani not Patong as they don’t take you full way.

Travelling by bus essentials
- If you are planning to travel during the high season, weekends, or national holidays, booking your bus tickets in advance is highly recommended. The demand is at its highest, yet very often, the number of coaches serving the route remains the same. The earlier you reserve your seat, the better. On some routes, you need to secure your ticket more than a month in advance; on others, a couple-of-days advanced booking is enough. During such periods, try to book online beforehand whenever possible, as showing up at the bus station without a ticket may result in many-hours of waiting in the queue or leave you downright stranded.
- VIP, 1st, Gold, and similar bus tickets are the most expensive option, but they provide a higher level of comfort. Normally the price of such tickets will include wide soft reclining seats, blankets, water and snacks or lunch, and sometimes some toiletries. Upper-class buses travel faster, make fewer stops during the route, and normally provide more spacious seating to their passengers and a better travel experience.
- Not all buses have an on-board toilet, but generally, for all trips longer than three hours, all operators schedule a bathroom and/or a lunch stop. While operators definitely do their best to keep on-board toilets clean, the smell may be an issue sometimes. For longer trips, booking a seat a bit farther from the toilet may be a good idea. Also, using bathroom stops for your toilet needs is always better than trying to find your balance in an on-board toilet on the run.
- If you travel by an air-con bus, make sure to pack layers. A hoodie, a warm scarf, or a beanie hat may prove a good idea. Air-conditioning on buses tends to be excessive, and running nose and sore throats abound after even not the longest bus rides.
- Always use the security belts even if your bus ride attendant or driver does not insist on it. Your safety comes first – for you, for sure. All buses normally are equipped with security belts, but they may be fixed behind your seat. Take time to find the belt and fix it appropriately.
- To avoid being disturbed by overhead lights, switched on during stops even at night, and too loud music or sound from the on-board entertainment system, have earplugs and a sleeping mask at hand.
- As a courtesy to other passengers, avoid using strong perfumes or smelly foods. Some foods like cheeses or durians are forbidden to take on-board – check in advance. Alcohol is also prohibited on the majority of buses.
- Note that if the bus requires refuelling en-route, passengers will be asked to get off the bus. Operators are not allowed to refuel with passengers on board due to safety reasons. Usually, it takes from 5 to 10 minutes and is often combined with a toilet/lunch stop.
- If not stated otherwise in your tickets, arrive at the bus station 20-30 minutes before departure. It will give you enough time to find the departure platform and check-in. For international trips, you may need more time for check-in and border formalities.
