I enjoyed the activity on the wharf!
The boat did have some delays as a result.
But you shouldn't mind that if you go on the slow boat. It is mainly a cargo boat with some room for passengers.
But even that had its charms.
The staff was very helpful when boarding and disembarking. It was a nice cruise.

Ik heb genoten van de bedrijvigheid op de kade!
De boot had daardoor wel wat vertraging.
Maar dat moet je niet erg vinden als je met de slow boot gaat. Het is voornamelijk een vrachtboot met wat ruimte voor passagiers.
Maar ook dat had zijn charmes.
Het personeel was heel behulpzaam bij de in- en uitstap. Het was een fijne vaartocht.

The owner of Shanxi Agency is super nice! Everything was on time, 100% reliable and it was very nice to be welcomed with a sign of your name at the airport.
I accidently booked for the wrong day and the owner changed it to the correct date, no questions asked and no extra payment.
Absolutely recommend booking your trips here!
Thank you so much, Mr Shanxi ! :)

Went to the bus terminal in Ranong & presented my voucher to exchange for bus ticket / boat ticket. They were not interested to help as I had paid online in advance. Luckily a lovely local lady helped & gave me a lift to the ferry terminal. I brought some boiled eggs off her for breakfast in exchange for the ride. The ferry company did accept the internet voucher so at least that was valid.
My experience is that its best to buy tickets in person when in thailand with cash. Cash is still very much king over here.

Last row again, it's not as comfy because the seat doesn't lean back as far and the motor is loud. Journey was smooth and fast, little snack and water and juice is nice.
Unfortunately noone speaks English, so here is some info:
There was one stop for food and toilet, if you bring your vip bus ticket to the buffet you can get a plate with rice and up to 3 toppings i think. But be very quick with toilets and eating and eat close to the bus, it already left again after about 15-20 minutes.
