Bangkok to Donsak Destination Reviews

I would not pay the high price for 2nd rate service again. Poor communication compared to other companies. Not as friendly as other companies. Wasn't aware of a 5am bus change at Surat Thani. That bus was very old and not in good condition. The whole experience wasn't VIP

Booking process quiklck and easy. Pick up point nor very clear. Buses could have been in better conditions (toilet pretty disgusting, A/C grid either missing or not closing (impossible to avoid getting cold air blown at you), The bus trip booked was Bangkok to Donsak Ferry Pier. Nowhere it was mentioned that the bus would finish its journey in Surat Thani, where we had to wait for another transport in order to get to Donsak Pier. Not only we were abruptly awaken, then we had to wait a while to board a small minibus. I was almost left there as the driver would not let me board it, insisting that i did not have a ticket to Donsak. Then the lady working at the bus stop told me i could get in the bus but i had to travel sitting on a sort floor next to the driver, unless i wanted to wait for the next minubus in the next hour or so. Not to mention that last part of the trip was very uncomfortable. Not the best first experienced i was expecting with 12go Asia
