Very professional and courteous service. I was met at the train station and directed to a cafe to wait until the van arrived. Everything was smooth and prompt from there. Seamless and professional service and staff.

They booked me to Koh Tao instead of Koh Phangan as my ticket stated. Luckily there is a boat change from here anyway.

The bus ride from Surat Thani to Donsak Pier went pretty well. The bus driver was very friendly and very helpful with my big bag.
The ferry was in a good condition and the ride was very smooth and perfectly on time.
I booked the trip just two hours before departure time in Surat Thani and they sent me the tickets within a few minutes.
Gladly again anytime.

Of course it was my fault in the first place but you should have seen at check-in that it was the wrong ferry. I ended up in koh tao instead of koh phangan where I had to pay another 800 batt for the crossing.
The air conditioning was also far too cold.

The bus was very old but okish. Ferry was nice with a little supermarket. Due to low season there where not to many people so it was quite comfortable.

Depending on your expectations. If you want to have a sleeping place enter the boat at least 3 hours before departure and stay there otherwise is not guaranteed that it’s still available. Boat was totally full lots of locals using it for transport accordingly is the comfort. At the end it’s a unforgettable experience didn’t sleep that much because of the heat and cuddling with locals :D

An overnight trip in calm seas. We slept very well in the large dormitory and woke up to a wonderful dawn. A cruise couldn't be more beautiful

Eine Nachtfahrt bei ruhiger See. Wir haben im grossen Schlafsaal sehr gut geschlafen, und erwachten mit einer traumhaften Morgenröte. Schöner kann eine Fährtfahrt nicht sein
