Krabi to Koh Lanta Destination Reviews

C
The transfer was ok, the van was a bit dated and the AC was struggling to keep up with the heat. We transfered from Krabi to Koh Lanta. All in all, good value for the money, the driver was very kind, picked up on time from the hotel, we had a pit stop as well. I would recommend.

The staff at the airport was nice and clear. As all the passengers ánd the van were on time, we left the airport earlier than scheduled, wich was nice. De van was a bit outdated en not really clean. When we were the last customers on the van they tried to let us pay extra for getting us to our hotel. We refused to pay as the van was already slowing down. We showed that the hotel drop-off was included, but i guess they just try.

Do not use this service, it’s a scam. The worst service ever. The van was supposed to arrive at 14:30. Before 14:00, I messaged the contact phone number asking them to send me information about the van — where exactly it would be waiting, what time it would arrive, whether it would have a logo, and the license plate number. They ignored the message. Since there was no vehicle there at 14:20, I wrote to them again. They replied that I should wait for a white van, and ignored all my other questions. You can imagine how many white vans there were at the airport. At least 20. Again, I asked for the exact arrival time and the license plate number — again ignored. Another message — another complete lack of response. I had absolutely no idea if the van was even coming, if it was delayed, or what was happening. I had zero information! And yet in their instructions it says that you must arrive at least 30 minutes earlier and the van may leave up to 30 minutes later. So realistically, they expect you to wait outside in the heat for more than an hour. At 14:45 the van finally arrived. No space for luggage, so we waited another 15 minutes as they threw bags inside — stacked on top of each other, under your feet, on your lap! The van was old, extremely hot, and you had to keep your bags on yourself. After about 2 km the van stopped on the side of the road and the “guide” (or whoever he was, because besides him there was also a driver — why are there two people when there isn’t even enough space for the customers?) started calling someone. After about five minutes he began reversing on a four-lane highway!! Then he turned around and we went back to the airport, while he continued to call someone. He even handed the phone to one of the passengers, where some woman was saying something — you couldn’t understand a word. The guide then asked the passenger for 5 baht (yes, you read correctly — 5 baht, about €0.13) and we left the airport again. No one got off, no one got on… what was the point of going back in that smelly van? As a bonus, he started loudly shouting the names of the hotels where everyone was staying. As a solo female traveler, I absolutely do not want strangers to know where I’m staying! I arrived at my accommodation late, exhausted, sweaty, and feeling sick from the heat in the van. Terrible, terrible, terrible service!

The staff had no organization. They didn't know where passengers were going. Although it was written on the ticket, they asked twice what our hotel was. There was no space in the van, luggage were crampped up so that it took most of the leg space, which was already very small. I do not recommend this company for tall people. On the other hand the staff was polite and pleasant, and they did take us to our hotel. I just wished they didn't plan on the little leg space for passengers to be filled with luggage. One last note, the vehicle wreaked of tobacco. If they smoke when not with customers, it doesn't matter that they forbid smoking for customers, the vehicle still smell.

How much does it cost to get from Krabi to Koh Lanta by van?

Opposite to, say, buses, normally vans do not offer a great variety in the sense of ticket class hence the price of the ticket is the same for all seats in a van. Note that some seats offer more comfort during the ride. E.g. in some vans the passenger seat by the driver is also available. If you are lucky enough to get it, you may have more space and definitely a better view there. Similarly, in some vans seats in the back row may be a disappointment as they do not recline due to the trunk filled with travellers’ luggage.

Phantip 1970 (พันทิพย์ 1970) is the cheapest operator on the route while Black Tiger Tour is the most expensive one.

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.
