Bangkok to Khao Sok Destination Reviews

We did a lot of research on the different options for this trip and we are glad that we ended on this company. We did expect the worst when we arrived at the bus terminal, with that in mind it was very pleasant. It helped to know that it is very common to do a lot of stops to pick people up and drop them off again, and to read the lines that said be prepared for at delay from up to two hours.

We had before no informations that we have to change the bus to a minivan. At 5 o'clock we have to wait two hours on a van station. The minivan was so small and also the baggage was in the van and full with people. Really bad. Everybody don't know it before that we have to change to a minivan...

Only issue was that it looked as if the trip was a direct route from Bangkok to Khaosok which was thenreason we chose it over train. Yet we had to change to minibus which wasn’t very comfortable.

The bus was comfortable, only the socket and WiFi didn‘t work. You stop one time around midnight for a break and to eat something and then in Surat Thani around 6 in the morning to switch from a bus to a mini van, so you can‘t sleep the whole night

No food and no water provided. The staff shouted at us to hurry up. The toilets on the bus were the worst I have ever seen. It was so cramped that we couldn't even turn around, it was dirty, we couldn't flush the toilet and there was no bin. As a woman, it was horrible.

We had a hassle-free bus journey from Bangkok to khao sok with TravelBusAsia . Alex, the coordinator, was incredibly friendly and helpful,. The bus was comfortable, not too cold, and had great amenities like USB ports, free coffee, and a clean bathroom. Overall, it was a smooth experience, and I highly recommend booking tickets in advance or online, as it’s much cheaper. Worth every penny!
