Well organized made a smooth jouney.

The coordinates that we got for the ferry sent us to the wrong pier. We would have missed ferry only the taxi came back to tell us we were at the wrong pier. There was very little information to.work with and we didn't know the ferry company that was bringing us but the taxi driver recognised the logo. It was all very stressful in the heat and under pressure. Apart from that, the trip went well once we found the correct location of ferry departure

Very well organised. Tidy and virtually empty bus waiting for us when we got off the Koh Samui ferry at Donsak, and speedy transfer across to Surat Thani railway station.

Train was comfortable. Much better than the outward journey which was in the same class but had no AC and was windy and noisy. Clean, toilets also.

It all worked out fine. Good, clean and big car- ferry. Bus waited at the ferry terminal for us and one other ferry later and brought us directly to the trainstation. We would book it again.

Be aware that you need to collect tickets in one location but you have to make your OWN way to the pier. With our other transfer (through different company) that was not the case luckily the taxi was still there so we could load everything back in and he took us to the pier. Other than that got from one end to the other with no dramas.

All good overall. One comment: check-in is required at the Phantip office one hour before departure, but the waiting room at the pier only opens 30 minutes before. This means there’s a long wait without proper facilities. Also, after checking in, you still need to walk about 10 minutes to the pier with your luggage — not ideal. It would be helpful if tickets could be digitized or if there were an agent directly at the pier.
