The boat itself and the logistics work very well. Though I did not expect being in a boat on rough sea without the ability to see outside the boat could be so nauseating.
It went pretty much as expected and according to previous reviews. The driver arrived somewhat late but without much trouble. We reached the destination with somewhat less than 2 hours of delay due to some stops throughout. The driver was quite friendly in the beginning, though seemed more bothered in the end. It was a fair deal overall but be aware that the longer your legs, the more uncomfortable it’ll be, especially given the amount of time you spent squished onto an A/C minibus from early in the morning until the afternoon. You’ll know to make the best choice for yourself.

It was a good journey and as comfortable as you’d expect. We had a stop where we could get a drink and go to the toilet if needed. However there were loads of random stops that had no explanations and no times given. It didn’t really make a difference as we were comfortable enough but it would’ve been nice to have a heads up or some info of how long we were stopping etc but overall a good trip.

Overbooked,was mean to go straight to Phuket from Koh Lanta but they stopped at phi phi island and picked up more passengers then they realised it’s overbooked and no seats they had to get them out of the boat was just waste of time stopping.
The ferries from Ko Lanta to Phuket were great, we had to change in Phi Phi and it was all organised well. The organisation of being assigned mini buses was also great. However, the transfer to Patong was awful. The driver was the worst we had in Thailand. Constantly accelerating full speed and slamming on the brakes. He near crashed into the back of so many cars. He was too busy watching youtube and facebook videos than concentrating on the road. I think we were unlucky with our driver.
The Van stopped a million times and the driver never informed us about how long we'll be at those random stops. Sometimes it was a minute, other times 20 minutes, so it was unclear whether we should stay inside the very full and not very comfortable mini van or if we can catch some air outside. Van also stopped at a bus stop about half way through and we had to switch busses. Which was very unexpected and the driver (again) didn't really explain what's happening. Very strange experience. Recommend taking the ferries instead.

Boat was on time. Staff helpful with luggage and getting on/of the boat.
The rider was very friendly and drove fast but safe.
There was enough space, altough for taller People it can feel a bit crammed. The bus stopped at a lot of random places to pick up others of groceries. The bus made three small stops so you have time to make a bathroom stop and buy some food. The only thing you should not do is ask the driver (signs hanging in the bus) to go to one of the beaches (Kata, karon,...). He'll charge you 100Baht pp just to put you on the local bus (which Cost 40baht). Overal a good way of transportation, despite the negative reviews from others i was happy to have a save and comfortable ride. Do keep in mind this is Thailand, time schedules aren't as exact as mentioned, so don't book other transportation basad on the arrival time...
