The operator (Lomprayah) was very efficient and organized. Only downside was that there was now working WiFi on the ferry or the express bus

We made two stops during the trip which were not necessary and seem more to make us spend money along the route than to have some rest...

The transfer between the ferry and the bus was very confusing. I was given a pink sticker, and then when the bus for the pink sticker came and I went to get it, I was told that I was not supposed to get in the bus, and nobody could tell me what was going on and why I could not catch that bus. For 10/15 minutes I had no idea if I lost my bus or if another one would show up. Eventually another one showed up, but I got to my destination 1hr later...

Air Conditioning in the bus was too cold. Many people were wet from the rain, and that made the air-conditioning problem worse.
The overhead vents were disgustingly dirty with what appeared to be black mold and unable to be turned off. This made the air-conditioning problem SIGNIFICANTLY worse.

Everything was wonderful! You just had to wait (regularly) an hour at the pier in Chumphon for the onward journey. But good for people who are hungry and the snack bar on site.

Alles wunderbar! Man musste nur (regulär) am Pier in Chumphon eine Stunde auf die Weiterfahrt warten. Aber gut für Leute, die Hunger haben und den Imbiss vor Ort.

Another pleasant stress free trip powered by 12go Asia. Not much more to say about it really.
