Koh Samet to Pattaya Destination Reviews

CB
Everything was really good and well organised apart from the driver who was driving like a madman in wet weather tailgating any vehicle in front and flashing headlights. This was a scary journey with an aggressive driver who even cut into another driver forcing him into a different lane whilst it was raining heavily.

I was early to the port. They put me on an earlier boat and then the driver turned up an hour early to take me to my hotel.

It was actually the best trip I’ve had so far with 12Go. I thought I booked the ferry and bus. But I got on the speedboat and a CAR to Pattaya- no bus ! Besides that PN GROUP escorted me from the pier to the office. It was very well organized. I really enjoyed the trip
