The trip was very confusing. The driver was a bit rude and I had no idea where I was going. Bus was very old, my chair was broken, no place to charge the phone and no water available. The bus arrived 2 hours late in Bangkok. For 1000 baht, I would expect a much better service, since I had better experiences in other bus trips in Thailand.

100% recommend this. The bus was waiting for us as soon as we got off the ferry. Bus was super comfortable, even stopped off for a free meal. Arrived on time
All went well easy, convient and effortless travel even got a small meal in Surit Thani before departing to Bangkok.

The trip went well, everything was well organized, and we arrived 1 hour early.
The night bus part was top-notch! We took the VIP-First class option, got a free bottle of water, a juice, a packet of cakes, a blanket, a cushion, lots of space in the bus, toilet in the bus, seat that reclines, small footrest, air conditioning, USB/tips plug...
Just great! We left at 7pm on the night bus, with a midnight break for lunch. Keep your bus ticket because you can exchange it for a voucher for a free meal.
We took 1 boat, then a kind of bus, then a minivan, then another minivan, then the big night bus. They don't tell us everything about the journey, the breaks, the destinations, the vehicle changes, the journey times, etc. But otherwise it was really good! But otherwise it was really good!

Le voyage s’est bien passé, tout est bien organisé, on est arrivé 1h plus tôt.
Pour la partie bus de nuit, c’était top! On a prit l’option VIP-First class, on a eu une bouteille d’eau offerte, un jus, un paquet de gâteaux, une couverture, un coussin, beaucoup d’espace dans le bus, toilettes dans le bus, siège qui s’incline, petit repose pieds, climatisation, prise USB/tipsé…
Vraiment top! On est parti à 19h avec le bus de nuit, pause à minuit pour manger, gardez votre ticket de bus car vous pourrez vous le faire echanger contre un bon pour un repas gratuit.
Seul petit reproche, on ne nous dit rien, on a prit 1 bateau, puis une sorte de bus, puis un mini van, puis un autre mini van, puis le gros bus de nuit. On ne nous indique pas bien toutes les étapes du trajet, les temps de pause, les destinations, les changements de vehicules, les temps de trajets etc. Mais sinon c’était vraiment bien!

Bus arrived 1 hour late, we made a stop at a disgusting Restaurant and the toilet was just not usable. The AC dropped water on us. We had way better bus rides in Thailand.

Uncomfortable bus, the seats were not fixed properly. The staff that should have helped people to reach the seat was unfriendly and rude. Despite this, the bus arrived pretty much on time. We did just one stop in a place that was not very well equipped (I experienced also the way back from Bangkok to Koh Phangan and we stopped in a very well equipped area, with many food alternatives that was very close to the place in which this bus stopped).
