Koh Lanta to Khao Sok Destination Reviews

The first driver drove dangerously

Transfer from Koh Lanta to Khao Sok. The original pick-up from our hotel was around one hour late, which was reasonable as the van has to pick-up every guest on their respective hotel. It is possible to call if you want to confirm the arrival because otherwise there was not much communication before the driver came. Our van had multiple okay seats and two bad seats (double seat) which could be a bit tight if you are large or need to share with a stranger. Van change in Krabi and then a 20 minute stop before the last drive to Khao Sok. Drop off at the Van station but it is possible to buy hotel drop off for extra (around 100 bhat pp for a 15 min drive). If you want to take Grab: the local taxi drivers dislike the external Grab drivers so it is kinda unsafe for them.

Arrived 1 hour late. Had 1.5 hour wait for next van midway through journey. First van crammed with luggage, felt a little dangerous.

Acceptable delay and wait time in Krabi. Arrived almost on time in the end! A bit weird that the driver offered to drive us to our hotels for some extra baht which did not seem to match the local prices.

Was a very uncomfortable journey in the two back seats for us both. Very hot and no head rest either.

We had to change the minivan. That wasn’t mentioned. But the trip was good at all.

You will eventually reach your goal. But it takes for ever. The driver takes detours to say hello to friends, get food or change tires. Sadly they dont really let you know, so there is no time for you to get food yourself. Bring a lot, like really A LOT more time than advertised.

Trip was splitted and for the part to Krabi I had to sit in the tiny rear seat because it was fully booked. I am 1.94m tall what made it really challenging and uncomfy. Second part was OK and the staff was really polite.
