Scam web site, i booked a transport + speed boat and there was clearly written private speed boat but when i talk with the company in charge for the transport they say was only sharing speed boat, during the car trip the driver left us 15 minuts inside the car during refuiling withou advising that no air was possible to use during the refueling , the car under the sunwas a hooven!!! the driver just didn t care to even to tell us was better to be outside the car during the refuiling, he just went out and left us there.... during the trip we thought we would stop at least one time to go to toilet as usually the driver does ( i often take limousine service to travel inside thaiuland) but he didn t even ask us if we need to stop for toilet, when i asked we need to go to toilet we were in a highway with no toilet available untill we got home....very bad service!!!!! i won t never use this company again! and on the way back the driver was late! was not waiting for us arriving from the boat!

Someone, after asked me 623 bats in more to pay for 1km between 2 pick up point, asked me again to give 600 bats at the conductor. It is not a method, it is disrespectful behavior. After that we had to walk with our baggages toward the boat while other persons had a transfert with a small car. Ok we can walk but for me it is not really VIP.
