It was a good safe trip, with a good number of stops, bus drivers were friendly and arrival time was as told.

It was all in all ok, but picked us up 1h later than the scheduled time and consequently arrived late. I was going from Hua Hin to Phuket, and the bus only stopped once after 2 hrs, probably to give a break to those who departed from Bangkok, but then no stop anymore and honestly that was too early stop for who started in Hua Hin and too long with no stops until Phuket, at least another stop was necessary. Yes, there is a toilet on board but it's not a great option, one more quick stop would be much better.

It was because of the quality of the road we were shaked.

The journey itself was great. Comfy bus, very clean. Dinner voucher included. Snacks and bottled water. But: We were supposed to leave at 7 pm. At check in we got told that the bus is full and we got scheduled to a 9 pm bus that had half an hour delay. So we waited 2 1/2 hours and arrived therefore late.

I put my daughter (14) on a bus for her first big trip by herself at the Clocktower in Huahin for destination Phuket. We came 30 minutes earlier and witnessed someone who was obvious in the lead of checking tickets and guiding the travelers to there seats. He was looking stressed and was very rude and could not get in control of things. That was the scene in HuaHin. Later when the bus arrived in Surat Thani it was the same scene. Nobody knew what was going on when they had to change the bus. It all was poorly organised.

The trip went weary well. But the transfer from bus to van was not good. I was asleep and didn't catch what was happening. But overall a good experience
