A great crossing, comfortable and easy to use. Didn’t realise how long on the bus from Surat Thani, but that was well done all the same. When booking, it would have been useful to have explained the bus transfer timing as well as the ferry.

The booking was easy. The bus and boat were perfectly on time. The boarding point for the bus is easy to find. Everything went smoothly and in an efficient manner. The bus was a bit outdated. The footmassage on the boat is highly recommended.

It was good. But bus was very dirty inside and it had such a bad smell and stains on the seats.
