Everything was fine. Small delay of 1,5h but comfortable seats and darkness for a better sleep

Supposed to be "VIP bus" so I was expecting a bus with only 3 seats per row, where you can recline the seat to almost 180°. But the nightbus from Surat Thani to Bangkok was not so confortable...

When I bought the ticket, they didn't mention that 4 hours of the trip is by an old minibus, with very very uncomfortable seats from Ao nang to krabi and then to Surat Thani. And after Surat Thani we traveled by big bus, which was not very comfortable either.

The communication was bad. No one told me that I was picked up 30 min earlier at my pick up location. I got lucky that I came back 30 min earlier to my hotel. The pick up driver was already waiting for me. He drove me to in office in krabi where we had to wait 45 min for the next van. They van drove us to Surat thani. There we had to wait another 30 min for the bus which drove us finally to Bangkok. The staff were not very friendly and helpful. The bus was average even so I had booked the VIP ticket. We didn't got any drinks and the food we've got at midnight was also average. I wouldn't booked the VIP ticket again as it's not much more than the standard ticket.

The journey itself exceeded my expectations: van from Ao Nang to Surat Thani was comfortable and took two hours. Transfer in Surat Thani was very quick. The bus from Surat Thani to Bangkok was excellent: comfortable seats that reclined, USB-outlets, toilet onboard, curtains for windows. The driver drove well and softly. We did one 30 minute stop for food and snacks at midnight. We arrived at Khao San exactly on time. However! The van left one hour late - and from the wrong McDonald's in Ao Nang! On the ticket it was clear that it was the McDonald's at the beach, but in reality it was the McDonald's up on the road. Not good! I called the hotline and the van had to turn around to pick me up, so everything worked out well. But still!
