At 7:30 they pick up at the hotels by minibus. Only by 9 they arrive at the bus station in Phuket Town. Then they transfer to the bus and it goes very slowly to the pier. At 14:30 (scheduled an hour earlier) at the pier. The ferry is another 40 min late. At 15:15 the ferry left. At 16:15 we arrived.
All in all, 9 hours of life. It is better (and if in a bargain, and cheaper) to go by cab

В 7:30 собирают по отелям минибасом. Только к 9 приезжают на автобусную станцию в Пхукет Таун. Потом пересаживают в автобус и он очень медленно едет до пирса. В 14:30 (по плану на час раньше) на пирсе. Паром опаздывает ещё на 40 мин. В 15:15 паром отправился. В 16:15 приехали.
В итоге 9 часов жизни. Лучше (а если в складчину то и дешевле) ехать на такси
