The seats were comfortable but with each stop the lights went on and disrupted my sleep. The leg-room was too short.
The temperature was 2 degrees too cold.

We are the last 2 to get on the bus and couldt sit next to each other. This is for a 8 hour bustrip not very nice but we survived offcourse! Also the bus was about 30 minutes late but i suggest that can happen.

Avoid Montanatip! The bus company has absolutely no idea about the guidance of a travel group. At every stop it was not sure what is going to happen next. Instead the operators screamed around and did not give any understandable instructions. At Sura Thani many travelers were deducted with overpriced taxi rides to their accommodations. Better book Lomprayah - even if it’s more expensive.

You have to stop so long time in Surat to take an uncomfortable bus .
The people on Surat are not nice as well.
The 2 bus who take care you to take the boat stop first to rajaferries for people who go to ko pha ngan after coming back to seatram .
So loosing time to get the boat.
I know the way so I go very quickly and get the boat.

Worried after reading reviews, but we were picked up on time, arrived on time, offered taxi service for arrival to island, we didnt accept after reading reviews, but the lady was correct, it was 400 baht for 15 min journey to hotel, same as she offered. Bus was comfortable, ac, blanket / water, breaks for toilet / food (unsure why people bad reviews for this, its a long drive for the drivers)

Everything was poorly communicated and the people weren’t friendly at all. Over and above the organisation tried to sell as a taxi for a “cheap” prise of 500 Baht (because they said it would be 800 when we arrive) but the drive would only take a maximum of 10 minutes (length was 5 km).
In the end we got a taxi for 200 Baht.
he bus was very comfortable, new and clean. It was a quiet and pleasant night ride with little light, so you could sleep well. In addition, there were free blankets and this time it was not nearly as freezing cold in the bus as our last times. All in all very good and recommend.

Der Bus war sehr komfortabel, neu und sauber. Es war eine ruhige und angenehme Nachtfahrt mit wenig Licht, so dass man gut schlafen konnte. Zudem gab es kostenlos Decken, wobei es dieses mal nicht annähernd so eiskalt im Bus war wie unsere letzten Male. Alles in allem sehr gut und weiterzuempfehlen.
