The driver came 30min late. On the way to Koh Lanta we had to change to another van. The new driver stopped to pickup one package from one shop and deliver to another one without apologizing or mentioning it to anyone. We reached our destination 1h after the expected arrival time.
Use this only if you don’t mind facing the issues above.

Quick, safe driving. Comfortable seats that recline. Effective air conditioning. Perfect comfortable ride. Highly recommend.
The driver has to pick up people from multiple stops, so don't fret if they don't make it right on time. My pickup window was 11:00 am to 11:30 am and my driver arrived at 11:35 and I was pleasantly surprised. I guess everyone was punctually ready and waiting for their pickup . I'd recommend, out of courtesy to other riders, to be ready on time and willing to wait.
I'd book with them again whenever I have a chance to.

We were collected from our hotel early which is always a positive! Once I’m the mini bus the air conditioning was very good.
Unfortunately for me about 1:30hour into the journey I started being sick (due to food poisoning) the driver pulled over immediately to allow me to get some fresh air. He did not rush me at any point and kept checking that I was okay. He reassured me we’re we’re not far from the ferry.
Once in the ferry I remained in the mini van with the kind driver coming to check I was okay at least 2 more times.
Myself and my partner were the last stop for the driver at the bottom of Koh Lanta and again he pulled the van over for me to be sick again and checked I was okay to continue.
I could not fault the service provided to me.
I would just like to make people aware that despite the trip being advertised at a 2:30hours journey it did take close to 4 hours (minus our 2 little breaks).

They arrived 1h before the time estimated, we were not ready and they waited for us 15 minutes. We took an amazing van to de bus station when we switched to a tiny one. The driver was very fast and we arrived on time at 12.30 to the hotel! Really nice trip!

The driver had no gps, no internet, no knowledge of Koh Lanta. Spoke very little English, luckily a German couple had internet to guide him. Took much longer than expected

Le conducteur n’avait pas de gps, d’Internet ne connaissait pas Koh lanta. Parle très mal anglais, heureusement qu’un couple allemand avait de l’internet pour le guider. Mis bcp plus de temps que prévu

We were picked up about 15 minutes after the deadline, which is normal here, so don't panic! Otherwise just call the hotline at some point.
We drove in an air-conditioned minibus and took a 10-minute toilet break at a petrol station.
We arrived about 30 minutes later and the driver drove a bit fast but still safely. The trip is definitely recommended :)

Wir wurde etwas 15 Minuten nach der Frist abgeholt, ist halt normal hier also keine Panik bekommen! Sonst einfach irgendwann die Hotline anrufen.
Wir sind in einem klimatisierten Minibus gefahren und haben eine 10-minütige Toilettenpause gemacht bei einer Tankstelle.
Sind ca 30min später gekommen und der Fahrer ist etwas rasant gefahren aber dennoch sicher. Der Trip ist auf jedem Fall zu empfehlen :)
