Natürlich ist es eine lange Reise von Phuket nach Koh Tao, aber alles lief reibungslos ab und die Fahrt wurde gut organisiert. Nach ca. 2 Stunden Fahrt haben wir einen 30-minütigen Stopp an einer Raststätte mit humanen Preisen gemacht und die Abwicklung am Hafen hat auch gut geklappt. Anstatt um 17:00 Uhr kamen wir um 18:15 Uhr an. Viel früher geht das denke ich auch nicht, aber das war ok für uns.
Everything happened on time, which for Thailand is sometimes surprising!
Bus left from Phuket at 7.01am and ferry arrived in Koh Tao at 14.50.
There is nowhere to buy food between bus station and Koh Tao. You can buy water and snacks (Peanuts, chips, cup noodles) in the ferry but other wise I would recommend to bring snacks with you and eat a breakfast :)
The bus was on time, and we only waited 20 minutes to board the Ferry. They do weigh your bags before you board the bus, so be prepared to pay 200 Bhat if your bag weighs more than 20kgs. Bus was very clean with black leather seats, pretty comfy. Ferry was great, crew was all helpful and friendly. Would recommend using them!
Super easy transfer to Surat Thani, the port was well organised and we didn’t have to wait long for the catamaran. Boat was great - the views were lovely and actually was an experience in and of itself.
It was not a taxi+ bus+ ferry. It was a mini van+ mini van+ ferry. There are no confortable for 5 hours the mini van.

I was pleasantly surprised at how smooth the journey was. The bus started on time we had a stop for lunch before arriving at the pier. The boat ride was longer and choppy (they provided plastic bags..), we arrived about 1 hour later than the scheduled 5 pm but all in comfort. We stayed in the same boat all the time while passengers were dropped off at Koh Samui and Koh Phangan.
