Everything was perfect. Clear instructions, the bus was clean and on time, and the waiting time at the pier (2h) was enjoyable. Absolutely recommended.

It was amazing, everything on time and great help from the organizers.. the seats were big and super comfortable- they were reclinable to a lying position so the sleep was great. The ferry ride was also really comfortable and we only waited at the peer for 20mins, don’t be scared because of the TikTok’s about it hehe. We got free water and the ac was also great but bring a jacket!

We booked the overnight bus and ferry connection from Bangkok to Ko Tao and we were extremely happy. The price is reasonable and the staff was friendly and helpful throughout. The bus was an hour late in Bangkok (which was immediately communicated at the check-in counter), yet we arrived at the designated time on Ko Tao. Halfway through there is a short break. The bus was much more comfortable than expected, though if you are really tall you might want to book the VIP ticket, as the reclining seats can make it quite narrow.
