Surat Thani to Koh Tao Destination Reviews

Very rough crossing, due to the weather, never felt so close to being so sick in my life! Managed to avoid it but top tip to other travellers, take a bag with you, sickness tablets and keep your eyes on the horizon if you can.

I traveled already with other companies and to be honest, they offered a meal etc. was ok at the ferry and the staff was nice but Boonsiri was way better, especially the travel was more comfortable for same price.
