Pros

This is one of the fastest and easiest ways to get to Koh Phi Phi.

All boats have air-conditioning.

There is a range of add-ons such as hotel pick up and you can also book a hotel in Koh Phi Phi through Chaokoh Travel Center.

You can book tickets online.

Cons

Boats do not run during storms or heavy rain.

Some boats are delayed in line with the tides.

There have been some reports of the air-conditioning not working on some boats.

Due to the high passenger to seat ratio the boats can feel a little cramped.

Keep in mind

It is imperative to print a paper copy of your ticket as copies of the PDF on a phone may not be accepted.

If possible leave time if you are travelling on to another destination as the boats can sometimes be delayed which means you may miss your connecting transport.

Travellers reviews

The overwhelming majority of travellers report easy and smooth journey with Chaokoh Travel Center with the major issue being luggage piled all together what makes it difficult to hunt for your own bag at the end of the journey.

Though occasional delays are sometimes reported, note that they can be due to the tide and not the fault of the company. Also, cancellations can happen due to stormy weather – be ready and have plan B in case it happens. Never ever plan short flight connections – you won’t be reimbursed the lost air-ticket.

Ferry Ferry, Chaokoh Travel Center, Apr 21, 2024
Easy to navigate the checkin procedure at Tonsai Pier thanks to helpful staff. Ferry ride itself was smooth and comfortable. Appreciated having bags with us, instead of piled up the front of the boat like other companies do.

The pickup and dropoff was comfortable.it was a big boat so there was a lot of room. You can enjoy the views from the deck. They have facility for refreshments too. Just keep a check on your belongings and don't leave them at the boat.

Started off a bit bad - van had not arrived and so called the number on 12go, and the woman had to check where the driver was. Driver ended up being 30 mins later than scheduled time - which would be fine if we weren’t fretting about somehow missing the van. The van kept on stopping at places, but not to pick up passengers? Then ended up getting dropped off at the pier, getting on the boat which was probably the best part. Snacks were available to buy.. Weird experience? Probably more like 2.5/5

The ferries from Ko Lanta to Phuket were great, we had to change in Phi Phi and it was all organised well. The organisation of being assigned mini buses was also great. However, the transfer to Patong was awful. The driver was the worst we had in Thailand. Constantly accelerating full speed and slamming on the brakes. He near crashed into the back of so many cars. He was too busy watching youtube and facebook videos than concentrating on the road. I think we were unlucky with our driver.

A nightmarish ride for me. My seat was nearly broken and it moved in very wide swings. The sea was bumpy, the captain seemed to be speeding because the boat was late and it was very very choppy. I got horribly sea sick. Worst part about these boats is no view of the horizon so it's like you're in a tin can being dragged through the waves.

The ferry was 90% empty but was on time. Though, a steward was constantly hawking his minivan service that I could use to get out of the Phuket pier. Go for this if you get a cheaper deal.

Good Option for people who prefer a Smooth but Slow Ferry over the bumpy speedboats. The ferry was Air conditioned but also had lots of space on deck .You may move freely on Board. The departure at 11am is the perfect time in my opinion if you need to check into a hotel or room on Ko Phi Phi. The ferry was fairly punctual.

Reserved the Ferry+taxi from Phi Phi to Phuket, the actual time was 3h, 30 mins less than advertised so very good. Everything was correct and the taxi van was waiting for us. Price was nice, compared to buying taxi on pier. Ferry had AC, toilet and small shop

Van Ferry + Taxi, Chaokoh Travel Center, Oct 18, 2023
Great and comfortable ferry and taxi ride. The taxi driver was very nice and got us to the airport on time. Although the whole journey was one longer hour than advertised (maybe a typo) since it is impossible to get from phi phi to Phuket airport in 2.5 hours, especially with the ferry. No regrets booking it, as the ferry was much more comfortable than the faster speedboat

Affordable transfer from Phuket to Koh Phi Phi on a large enough ferry. Took longer than expected but only by half an hour. The ferry was rather old though, seats not too comfortable, but the inside was cooled at least. Sitting outside was possible too, but it gets quite loud.

We booked a trip with hotel pickup in phuket patong to koh phi phi. However, we didn't know when exactly we would be picked up at our hotel (in the end it was 20 minutes later than booked), would be nice if this was communicated beforehand. Their support also didn't respond to our question on pickup time/locator. However transport itself, taxi + boat where very comfortable and as promised.

The price should have included transport from the pier or at least gave some instructions related to that, instead of having somebody selling us the mini bus transfer inside the boat.

Salio a su hora y llegó en 40 minutos! El barco la verdad que se menea, las cosas como son, pero no da sensación de inseguridad, simplemente son como baches todo el rato. Media hora es soportable, 2 horas así ya... a mí no me gustaría.
