Phuket to Koh Yao Yai Destination Reviews

HA
To koh yao yai was good, but the one to koh mook not, first the boat was old and dirty, and some problems with engine. And the tiket said should arrived at 13:45h, and we stopped at koh lanta, had to change boat, but we arrived at 12:30h and the boat to koh mook was at 13:30h. And the ticket said direct with only the islands between stop, not change, Its not organised, and they don't care if you ask anything. So many years coming to thailand and I think some things are getting worse. So not good at least for older people.
