About Ao Nang Travel And Tour

While some islands are now reachable by plane or are connected to the mainland with a bridge, ferries remain the only way to reach some of the most beautiful and amazing islands, hidden beaches, or other seaside destinations. Larger and slower car ferries carry vehicles and passengers around the world, but in certain cases, you will need to opt for a smaller yet faster express high speedboat or catamaran to reach your destination. While the latter does save you time, caution should be taken if you are prone to seasickness. When the sea is, rough high-speed boats which actually cut the waves are a better option than catamarans that ride the waves instead hence turning your journey into a rock-and-roll trip. To prevent or beat motion sickness, we recommend taking a special medication – consult your doctor prior to the journey. While on board, grab a seat on an open-air deck wherever possible.

Ferry trips offered by Ao Nang Travel And Tour can be booked online – in an easy and hassle-free manner, without wasting your time visiting the booking office.

Ao Nang Travel And Tour Ferry Types & Tickets Prices

High-speed fast ferries always hit the hardest on your pocket. If you need to save money, check whether some slower options are available on your route – usually the rates are much more affordable. It is a rule of thumb to check the length of the trip before booking. On longer routes, the difference in travel time can be huge. Note that not all ticket fares or classes are always available on any route. During peak seasons it is a good idea to make your booking in advance as the availability of more expensive private cabins is often limited. Opting for walk-in tickets on the most popular routes during these periods can result in long waiting queues. Some destinations have more than one pier or different piers for different ferry companies hence goes the recommendation to check the pier you leave from/dock at before your trip. Leave enough time before the departure to find your boat and check in. These procedures may take up to a couple of hours on international routes. Last but not least, some piers impose their own ‘pier fee’ on all arriving passengers. This fee is normally not included in your ticket price – keep this in mind.

Travel by Ferry: Pros & Cons

Pros of Ferry Travel

  • Taking a ship allows you to get to some of the islands, beaches, or seaside destinations which otherwise cannot be reached. While ferry travels can be time-consuming and sometimes make you suffer from sea sickness, the possibility of visiting the most paradise, secret, off-the-beaten-track destinations they bring you to usually compensates.
  • Ferry tickets can be booked online. It saves you time and secures your travel itinerary goes as planned. The advanced booking option is especially convenient when travelling during peak season periods, national holidays, or long weekends when there is high demand for tickets and on routes served by a limited number of vessels.
  • On some routes, you are able to choose the class of the ticket or cabin. There are private compartments or standard cabins with a number of extras included or not. Always check the conditions of your fare to take most of your trip.
  • Ferry travel is always fun. It allows you to see the places you visit or just pass by from a different angle. The majority of places look terrific – and totally different! – when viewed from the water. Sailing provides a great opportunity to shoot nice and unique pics and videos – do jump at it!

Cons of Ferry Travel

  • The major concern while travelling by water is motion sickness, which is a very annoying and unpleasant thing. Even if you have never experienced it before, there is no guarantee that the next ferry trip will run smoothly as well. Rough seas and speedboat journeys can make even the strongest stomachs beg for mercy. Follow our recommendations above and take your medicine half an hour prior to your trip. Taking a light meal before travel also helps – more chances to get seasick with an empty stomach.
  • Delays and cancellations are common for ferry trips as they highly depend on weather and sea conditions. It especially concerns travel during shoulder months or off-season. Rains, mossy seas, and stormy weather may interfere with your travel itinerary – try to keep it flexible and do not plan tight flight connections even during the ‘usually-good-weather’ season.

Loved the boatride. Nice view of different islands, helpful staff. A very authentic Thailand Experience. Only the air inside the boat on the lower deck was not very good and the seats were really old and torn apart.

There was no information where or when we had to change the boat, they just told us right at the time that we had to do it. In open waters with two backpacks we hado to change the boat. The second one was even older than the first one and smelled really really bad!

Standard Thailand ferry service. Gets you were you are going, but is always a mad scramble getting on off around (you will stop in middle of ocean and get transfered to various smaller boats based on where you are going in particular). If you are not used to these boats, they are fine, but keep you valubles on you/in a dry bag as your big luggae will be stored outside in a pile with everyone else.

The ship went first to Railey beach and then to Ao Nang, offering a great opportunity to admire both sceneries and take photos. The ferry is organized in three stories and the topmost is a terrace that allows to see all around the ship. The only half hour delay was a minor negative point in a relaxed holiday :)

Nous avons pris le bateau de Ao nang à Ko lanta. Ils sont d’abord vrnus nous chercher en longtail, puis embarcation bateau. Nous avons attendu près de 45 min pour le longtail, nous avons craint qu’ils nous avait oublié. L’hôtel a appelé pour vérifier. Le bateau se faisait vieux, mais c’étaot correct.

Processes and comfort was good. We left the pier on time and had a normal speed. That’s why I don’t understand that we arrived 45 minutes late. It’s not a huge problem but it needs to be assumed, they aren’t honest with their travel duration.

Hotell pick-up was a bit late, but worked out good in the end. Still arrived in good time for the ferry. The ferry was a bit run down but it was a decent ride, they sold some snacks onboard which was nice. After a short ride the ferry stopped in a bay and connected with another big boat. Dont now what happened but some passenger changed boats. Was a bit odd but maybe it was some emergency. Only took 15 minuters so it was fine. During the ride ferry-personal asked all travelers if they needed taxi to our respective place when we arrived. That was a welcome suprise and to a good price. If you dont book on the ferry its no worries, taxi and tuk-tuk drivers well flock arround you at ferry dock :) haha Easy to book and 12GO offer a good travel solution. Cheap way to travel as well.

A stunning and very comfortable trip! Took quite a bit longer than advertised, but we weren't in a rush, and enjoyed the experience very much. The free transport from the pier to our accommodation in Ao Nang was also a welcome surprise!

Well the vessels this time ( Aonang princess 7 and 9) have been OK. Anyway when we change the vessel at Railey we get into a full vessel so no sets available because some people need to reservate a lot of seats. If you sell tickets to a ferry you should guarantee a seating too.

You get what you paid for... Abholung mit 15 Minuten Verspätung. Die Fähre fuhr und brachte uns zum Ziel. Mit 50 Minuten Verspätung, weil man sich die Mühe macht, Passagiere vom 20 Minuten entfernt liegenden Raileh Beach mit Longtailbooten an Bord zu bringen. Das ist aus meiner Sicht völlig unnötig, da das Warten auf die Boote Zeit und Sprit kostet. Im Inneren des Schiffs ist meiner Meinung nach, nur auf der oberen der beiden Etagen erträglich. In Koh Lanta angekommen, war die Gepäckausgabe i.o. Die "Verladung" der Passagiere in Gefährte aller Art ist völlig übertrieben hektisch. Alles in allem eine Überfahrt, die ok war, weil wir angekommen sind. Mehr nicht

Left on time, arrived half an hour late but everything was OK. Good views on the way, not too hot on board (windows open for ventilation, no aircon). Enough seats for everyone. I'd recommend!

My luggage was taken to another location. HE was brought later, but I was told that I myself was to blame for this. I would like to receive instructions from the company - how should I control my luggage when transferring to another ferry. When trying to get a document about the delay of luggage for the insurance company, they answered me that they were not obliged to issue documents, and they also said that my English was not very clean (this is true). I did not see the care from this company, so I can not give a high rating.
