After we arrived with the ferry, we got on a van, after about an hour of driving we were changed to a bus that stopped at several stops and finally we were changed again to a van that took us to Ao Nang. 6 adults and children with their luggage move from vehicle to vehicle in the rain without first informing me that this is the route. We arrived Exhausted to the hotel from a difficult day.
A difficult and unpleasant experience at all.

It is a long journey and the itinerary seems a bit messy, but everything is very well organized. The ferry (3h) is very good and at the Donsak station they tell you where you have to go or if you have to wait. In our case we only had to stop for 1 hour to take the first bus (which was already good for us to have a drink in the bar or go to the bathroom). The company Phantip sent us a WhatsApp the night before to confirm the whole trip.

Es un trayecto largo y el itinerario parece un poco lío, pero está todo muy bien organizado. El ferry (3h) muy bien y en la estación de Donsak ya te indican donde tienes que ir o si tienes que esperar. En nuestro caso sólo tuvimos que parar 1 hora para coger el primer bus (que ya nos fue bien para tomar algo en el bar o ir al baño). La compañía Phantip nos envió un WhatsApp la noche de antes para confirmar todo el trayecto.

The journey in general has not been bad.
But it should be noted that you have to change vehicles 4 times during the trip: first a ferry, then a mini bus, a van and finally a pick-up to get to Ao Nang.
On top of that, every time I changed transport I had to say where i was going again because there are the same transport for many destinations and the truth is that it's quite tired all the changes and all the stuff

The ferry was great and very comfortable and left in time, although after that our travels were bad. We were waiting around for 40 minutes before our first bus took off, and then we got dropped off downtown transportation hub where we had to wait 3 hours for our next van ride. There was no communication about the expectation we had to wait around this long , and then when the van arrived, it smelt terribly of moved refrigerated foods which our feet rested on, bags everywhere, I felt so stuffy, hot and irritable. We should not have been packed in that van for the length of time this journey was, over 2 hours

It would help a lot if the steps within the trip were thoroughly explained before departure. We had to wait for almost an hour in Donsak for the bus trip to begin. It was a 2 hour ride and the bus had no toilette.

On the bus from Donsak to Krabi, the AC was leaking on me and the driver only said sorry with a big smile. Otherwise, quite on time

Ferry really nice and comfortable and the two vans were also nice. We didn't understand before that we're going to take two different cars to get from the ferry to Ao Nang but it went smoothly and as soon as we arrive to Surathani they explained us and told us the wait would be around 15min until the next van arrive. Then the second van made the rest of the way and got us until our hotel.

Very dirty ferry, a lot of trash on the floor and the walls were dirty. We had to change vans three times. They didn’t tell us anything, we had no idea what’s going on.
