Rude driver no space even though we arrived first we had to sit at the back next to the luggage. doesn't explain anything and tells us to get off the car and then we had to wait 30 minutes in the middle of nowhere for another van to pick us up... didn't even tell us it was going to go to Pattaya before going to Bangkok airport and we arrived two hours later than the expected time

The ladies ar check in were exteremely unfriendly..without informing us about delay they let us wait for an hour to weight our luggage only before departure. One was overload, the other was fine. They didn't allow us to put heavy stuff from one to another due to delay and we had to pay. However the ride itself and the driver were great. Vehicle a bit older.

The bus was a bit late and there was no water. But otherwise it was ok.
Would book it again.

Transport delayed about 2,5 h (planned arrival 19:00 vs 21:30), mainly because of a lot of chaos during departure from Koh Chang (changes of minibus, additional transport to hotel -> ferry -> bus station -> hotel -> ferry, at least we leave a ferry after 1 pm). We feel shaking rollercoaster on every hole and speed bump. A lot of water from air conditioning.
I propose to take transport to Airport and then BTS train to everywhere else.

A perfectly safe journey, although we wasted a lot of time on the way. We took our first break after less than an hour, with the information that this was a short toilet stop. So far, so good. Once we were all back at the bus, we realized that our driver had gone to get a hot meal and eaten it on the spot. So we strolled around the service area and stretched our legs. We then drove on, only to take another break after a while, again with the words "toilet break". Same game as before, our driver ate another hot meal. This time, however, there was no opportunity to explore the rest stop, so all the passengers stood by the bus and waited for the driver. In the end, it took us 7.5 hours to complete the journey, which should have taken 5 hours. So not only did we use up the buffer we had included, we also added another 30 minutes to the delay. A great pity, as you want to make the most of your time on vacation and enjoy it as much as possible.

eine durchaus sichere Fahrt, wobei wir sehr viel Zeit unterwegs vergeudet haben. So haben wir bereits nach nicht mal einer Stunde unsere erste Pause eingelegt, mit der Info, dies sei ein kurzer Toilettenstopp. So weit, so gut. Nachdem wir alle wieder zurück am Bus waren, mussten wir feststellen, dass unser Fahrer sich erst einmal eine warme Mahlzeit geholt hat und diese vor Ort zu sich nahm. Also schlenderten wir etwas über die Raststätte und vertraten uns die Beine. Anschließend fuhren wir weiter, um nach einer Weile erneut eine Pause einzulegen, wieder mit dem Hinweis "Toilettenpause". Gleiches Spiel wie zuvor, unser Fahrer aß erneut eine warme Mahlzeit. Da es dieses Mal aber keine Möglichkeit gab, die Raststätte zu erkunden, standen alle Mitfahrenden am Bus und warteten auf den Fahrer. Letztendlich brauchten wir für die eigentlich 5 Stunden dauernde Fahrt 7,5 Stunden. Wir brauchten also nicht nur unseren mit eingerechneten Puffer auf, sondern setzten noch 30 Minuten Verspätung oben drauf. Sehr schade, da man doch gerne im Urlaub die Zeit so gut wie möglich nutzen und genießen möchte.
