Koh Lanta to Khao Sok Destination Reviews

The journey went smoothly. However, the driver picked us up much earlier than planned (30min), so we didn't get to eat our already ordered breakfast. We also arrived at our destination over an hour late.
We also had to change shuttles at a bus station without being informed beforehand. But otherwise nothing catastrophic to report

Le trajet s’est bien déroulé. Cependant, le chauffeur est venu nous chercher bien plus tôt que prévu (30min), ce qui fait que nous n’avons pas pu manger notre petit déjeuner déjà commandé. Par ailleurs, nous sommes arrivés plus d’une heure en retard à destination.
Nous avons également dû changer de navette dans une gare des bus sans être prévenus avant. Mais sinon rien de catastrophique à annoncer

We had to change the Bus at Krabi Bus station which we were not informed about. But we only waited 15 minutes for the new bus.
The first Bus was big but still comfortable enough. The driver stopped every 10 to 15 minutes in Koh Lanta to pack packages on the bus which was really annoying and time consuming. A distance of 1h took us over 2 hours.
The second Bus was a Minivan, which was more comfortable. But the driver drove really irresponsible! He was so often on his phone, sometimes for 5 minutes.
We only did one break to go to toilet on the second bus. We reached our drop off spot 1 hour late.
All in all it was okay but could be improved!!

It was 2 hours longer than anticipated and in the second van the AC was not working. But overall it was ok.

Van
Vans are a great alternative - or, in many cases - your only option - if you need to travel overland within one and the same province or neighbouring provinces or states. Vans ply the roads between Koh Lanta and Khao Sok, too.
Things to remember: When travelling by van with huge luggage buying a separate seat for your suitcase or backpack is a good idea. Do not expect there is a roomy luggage compartment in a van - there is actually none and your fellow passengers are unlikely to appreciate your luggage stuck under their feet, alas.
