My trip was horrible. The first bus was okay. One could have traveled all the way to Phuket in a good mood. But then they transferred us to a small bus to Surat Thani. Why would you even make a connection? They don't write that on the ticket on the 12go website. This is terrible. The worst thing about the bus was that the seats didn't recline, and there are very small distances between them for European people. That means the company doesn't care about them. After the trip Everything from my legs to my neck hurt.
The driver was very unpleasant to deal with. I wanted to sit up front to avoid the discomfort of seats sized for children, but he just waved me off. Very unpleasant man.
He also came and picked up some parcels about 10 times and put one of them on the front seat, the only seat on the bus that reclines!!!! BOX SEAT.
He also stopped to eat near below average stores. The food selection was poor, the store was just a high street store with chips and cookies.
I do not recommend anyone to ride with this company. If even no one else is there - walk to Phuket.

Everything was perfect until Our transfer from Phuket to Patong. The driver insisted that we didn’t pay for the transfer to Patong when it stated it on the ticket and demanded more money from us. Luckily I rang 12go and they sorted it out for me before he was going to leave us on the side of the road.

The ticket said it ended at bus terminal 1 and it ended at terminal 2, which means I had to walk 50 minutes to my hotel.

En el ticket ponía que terminaba en la terminal 1 de bus y termino en la 2, lo que significa que tuve que caminar 50 min hasta mi hotel

The boat was on time, the driver was friendly, it was a small bus not a minivan which is a good thing but we still arrived 2 hours late. It's not the driver's fault because he only took two 20-minute breaks, it's just false advertising, they tell us a 7h30 hour journey when even without breaks it takes at least 9h. If I knew it was going for a 9h trip I would take a plane.

For a trip that long one would expect the bus to have a functional bathroom
