Koh Samui to Koh Phangan Destination Reviews

Booking my ferry for my round trip from Koh Phangan to Koh Samui was very easy and convenient. Echo Travel was fantastic. The staff is very helpful and friendly. At both destinations the departure was on time. Highly recommend it.

The boat was full, and they made me sit in the front, on the outside. The sea was a little rough, but nothing out of the ordinary. They were going so fast that I started jumping in the air and hitting my back and legs when I fell. Despite this, for a good part of the journey, they didn't slow down until I started screaming. The result: pain that doesn't go away even in the following days; I've been taking painkillers for three days. Absurd. I should file a complaint and ask for compensation for the damages.

We were put on a smaller open air speed boat instead of the larger air conditioned ferry in their listing pictures. Which would have been fine, except that it was overbooked so there was a crowd of us left squashed and standing at the back of the ferry for the entire 30+min journey. Comfort aside, it would probably have been a safety lapse too since the overbooking means there would have been a shortage of life jackets had we required them.

The speedboat broke down halfway through the journey, which made me really anxious because we were just drifting in the middle of the sea.
