The boat and van were on time and everything went smoothly. There was a person at the pier guiding us to the van. The van was very confortable with good driver. The only downside is the boat trip, which wasn’t confortable at all and it was very hot inside the boat.

The service agents at the pier and at the airport were excellent and made sure to keep tabs on me and ensure the transfer was smooth to the shuttle. The driver was about 45 minutes late departing and after asking about flight timing, we delayed further and seemed to pick up more people. All that said it was a smooth and very easy trip to the airport and the delay didn’t impact timelines much.

Seamless transfer from Koh Lipe to pier to Hat Yai. Boat ride was uneventful and staff helpful getting on and off. Driver was patient with a couple that missed their stop (how they missed the airport is beyond me). He circled our drop off spot trying to get closer (down a one way).

The entire process, from initiation to completion, unfolded seamlessly. The team at Hi Lipe excelled, keeping us well-informed in advance through email communication. Their punctuality was noteworthy! Starting at Hatyai airport, the van efficiently picked up additional passengers from Hatyai city before proceeding to Pak Bara. The driver displaying the signboard name, picked us up promptly at 9 am at exit No. 8 at Hatyai airport and we reached the pier by 11 am. The driver ensured a safe and pleasant journey. Upon arrival at Pakbara Pier, staff awaited us at the visitor center of the jetty, guiding us to the Jetty for ticket redemption with clear instructions. I highly recommend using this service for travel from Hatyai to Koh Lipe.

Very tight spaces, very unconfortable trip. Everyone packed like sardines. An absolute lack of organization between the van company and the boat company.

The travel was good. The sitting arrangement of the speedboat needs improvement. All seats need be front facing, not in the side facing. Side facing seats are not convenient. The speedboat started 40 minutes after the mentioned time. All other travel was good.

Ferry didn’t depart on time. While everybody was ready to board, they changed the ferry and moved all luggages to smaller ferry. Everybody had to wait under baking hot. Since they got more people than the capacity of ferry, peope got stuck. Finally there weren’t enaough life vest.

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.
