Hat Yai to Krabi Destination Reviews
EW
Eann WIt was a shocking experience! First of all I found out that if you buy the same ticket on a more comfortable and bigger bus it costs you exactly 50% less than booking with 12GO, which is insane profit margins and for such a big well known company I expected more than to be ripping off its customers. Secondly, the mini van was tiny and they made sure to fill up all the seats, so bags and suitcases had to go on laps and by our feet when there already wasn’t much room as is. Thirdly, it said it included drop off to our hotel and then the mini van driver dropped us off 30 minutes out of town and we were forced to pay to get a lift in his friends tuk tuk. They definitely tried to rip us tourists off as much as possible and all worked together very well in doing so! Horrible experience and would not recommend to anyone! Better to just book a local bus directly at the station and then source your own transportation to your hotel.

Jeff COur van left Hat Yai 1.5 hours behind scheduled time. Everything else is great, and I understand arrival time is hard to predict given traffic, but failing on departure time with such large gap just feel non-excusable.

Hilja Good ride, with a lot of stops though on the way (picking up and dropping of people). But we only arrived some 15-30min late to Krabi bus terminal, so perfectly okey!

Bailey Bus was late and then we made stops at lots of random places to drop things off ect. We were so late to the drop off in Krabi there were no taxis or anything open. Was super sketchy and scary. Also NO room for bags at all.

If you are lucky enough to get it, you may have more space and definitely a better view there.

Travelling by van essentials
- Ensure to check carefully from where your van departs. In many cases vans are stationed not at the city main bus station but elsewhere. Individual van operators may have their own van stops located anywhere, and one and the same operator may sell tickets to their vans from different stops. If you are planning a bus-van connection, be sure you understand where to catch your van as it is easy to assume that vans leave from the same station where buses arrive. No, it is not necessarily so!
- There are different types of vans accommodating from 9 to 15 or more passengers. While on certain routes you have no alternative, on others you can choose. The rule of thumb – fewer seats mean more leg space and more comfort. As well as more money for your ticket. But this is probably the case when it is worth investing into your seat a bit more.
- Vans accommodating more passengers are often cramped and do not provide any additional space for your luggage. In many cases your ticket will include only one piece of luggage, often with limited weight. If you travel with huge suitcases or backpacks you may want – or even need – to buy an extra seat for your luggage. Before booking an extra seat for your luggage though do check with the operator if they allow it. If you did buy a separate seat for your luggage, and the driver during the way tries to pick up an extra passenger to put on a “vacant” seat, insist on right to use it as you paid for it.
- There are obviously no on board toilets in vans but if your journey lasts over two or three hours there will normally be one or more bathroom stop(s) enroute. During the bathroom stop, take a note of your van number plate when you get off. It will make it easier for you to find the van among similar vehicles and in an unhappy case (hypothetically!) of van leaving without you, you can at least report it to the operator.
- Van drivers are notorious for their driving style. Though many companies enforce strict speed limits on their vehicles they are often not observed. This is probably a major downside of van travel in some countries. Anyway, if speed limits are violated do not be shy to ask the driver to go slower. Normally there will be an information plate with the telephone numbers to call if your driver violates traffic rules – report each such case without hesitation. Also, do leave your review if not satisfied with the service to warn other travellers.
- It is compulsory to use belts for all the van passengers. Even if your driver does not insist on it, use the belt for your own safety. Belts are sometimes fixed behind your seat – do not hesitate to release them and use as they are intended to be used.
- Many vans do not have scheduled departures but depart when full. Sometimes waiting periods can be long, especially if you happen to come immediately after the previous van has departed or just in the end of the day when there are not so many passengers. Always make sure you understand whether your ticket is for a scheduled trip or otherwise. Normally operators who allow online booking of their tickets, provide scheduled service meaning your van will depart on time no matter how many passengers show up for the trip.
