Felix HThe driver from Khao Sok to Surat Thani was constantly on his phone. I didn't always feel safe. In addition the car was too hot, the AC didn't work properly.

Tomer No one explained that we will be passed around in 5 different cars, and the ferry was stinky and poor.

Rene GFirst part of the trip was in an overcrowded minivan with luggage. That was really uncomfortable and not safe in case of anyrhing would happen. The 2nd en 3rd part in a big bus and ferry was fine.

Katy SAll great and on time, only problem was that we were told to go to the pier which had an earlier boat departing from it than the one we were meant to get. You’d think that’s a bonus but as some of the family went straight away to the pier when called, and one came 5 mins after, in that time the boat had departed (as it was an earlier boat) and we were separated for the trip. All ok in the end and reunited in koh phangan but I think operator needs to explain that there are multiple boats if sending people to the pier early and there is a risk of not being on the right boat.

Marijke Vtoo many people and stuff in the bus, and annoying driver, unfriendly to people, actually just rude. Second part of the bus ride was better with big coach.

Vanessa KPhantip was very organized, everybody at the Khao Sok Bus/Van station got a sticker with the final destination. The first stop was in Surat Thani, after that we were brought to the pier. All in all pleasant experience with Phantip.

Benjamin WThe first mini bus from Khao Sok was too crowded with people and backpacks. We were told to sit at the very back so had backpacks digging into us and not much room for our feet as backpacks were also put under the seat. The bus from Surat Thani was much better! Bigger bus, backpacks underneath the bus and working aircon. We got dropped off just before the pier and has to take a bus train to the pier that again was too overcrowded and we had to miss two trains as buses kept arriving and people jumping on. There was no order to it. Ferry was good, aircon rooms if you went looking for them at the front.
Once we reached Surat Thani we had to wait over an hour for the next bus so if you are hungry make sure you take a trip to the shop at this stop. We had no time at the ferry port as by time we got on a bus train we were boarding the ferry as the second bus was almost half an hour late too.
