About Phichet Transport
While some travellers feel skeptical about vans, a good choice of destinations and competitive prices make vans one of the most popular means of transport for others. Vans are always more flexible than big buses. If there is a sudden request for rides to some new destinations, van operators are always the first to offer their service. Indeed, it is easier to launch a new route if you operate a vehicle of 10-15 pax capacity, isn’t it?
Phichet Transport operates van service and offers tickets with easy online booking. Check them if you are looking for options to travel by van.

What are the Vans Classes & Prices of Phichet Transport?
As a rule, it is not possible to choose a ticket class when travelling by van. Yet you can check with the operator and/or choose the type of van which serves your route. Some vans seat only 9-10 passengers, others accommodate up to 15 travellers. The former case means you may have more legroom, wider seats and a more comfortable ride, the latter – be ready for a limited space for your legs, elbows and your luggage.

Pros & Cons of Van Travel
Pros of Van Travel
- Vans often reach the destinations where neither buses nor trains travel. These include secondary towns and smaller villages
- In most cases vans are the fastest way to get to your destination if travelling to relatively short distances overland simply because they are smaller than buses and more maneuverable
- Vans can let you get off at a more convenient point enroute – not necessarily at the terminal, what actually can save you loads of time and money in some cases.
Cons of Van Travel
- Some vans can be quite cramped with limited space for luggage available. Well, actually almost all vans offer limited luggage space and if you have more than one bag, suitcase or backpack, it may be a good idea to buy a separate seat for your luggage – yes, you will pay double for your trip, alas
- It is worth checking if your van runs on schedule or leaves when full – in the latter case you may end up waiting too long as on several routes it can take quite a time for a van to fill up.
- You should know that van drivers are notorious for their speedy driving. Even the most reputable companies sometimes fail to persuade the drivers to respect the speed limits. Even if your van driver does not insist on it, always buckle your seatbelt while travelling by van
- If you easily get seasick and your trip includes winding stretches, chances to feel motion sickness are higher while travelling by van than by bus. Take your medicine half an hour before your trip to be on the safe side.

Van Minivan 14pax, Phichet Transport, Apr 2, 2024
We did make three stops during our trip from Krabi to Khao Sok, but each stop lasted no more than one minute. Therefore, it wasn't like the reviews we had read before.
The estimated arrival time at Khao Sok (bus station) was indeed 12:30. Then, the driver asked for the hotel address at the Khao Sok bus stop. One of the guys whose hotel was at the lake couldn't come with us because the minivan couldn't travel that far (more than 6km), so they had to take a taxi from that point. Our hotel was the Khao Sok Legend Poolvilla. Despite the very bumpy and dirty road, the driver still took us to the accommodation without complaining. Thank you, guys!

Bei mir hat alles gut geklappt. Ich war allerdings auch der erste der abgesetzt wurde und der Bus war nur halb besetzt. Dafür haben wir schon länger gebraucht als angegeben. Also man muss schon deutlich mehr Zeit einplanen als angegeben. Aber das ist in Thailand immer mit den minivans. Das wusste ich vorher. Also nicht schlimm. Da die Fahrt früh losging habe ich am Busbahnhof etwas gegessen, davon rate ich ab.

The trip was ok, comfortable vehicle with ar-condicionditioning. It's a little bit late (10mon) nada and there was a 20 min "connection" at Krabi city that was not informed in advance. Also some stops to deliver orders that increased the travel time, but not too much. You can use the phone number in the voucher to check if it's coming.

Van Minivan 14pax, Phichet Transport, Mar 2, 2024
Man kann froh sein, dass man am Ziel angekommen ist.
Auf dem Voucher steht Abholung 9.20 Uhr.
Dann steht +/- 30 Minuten.
Somit warteten wir ab 8.50 Uhr in der Lobby.
Gegen 10.15 war immer noch keiner da.
Wir riefen an, dann kam nur als Auskunft, wir sollen warten. Nach kurzer Musik im Hintergrund wurde aufgelegt.
Gegen 11.15 war immer noch keiner da. So ließen wir von der Rezeption anrufen. Als Antwort kam, dass sie bereits im Ort sind und wir warten sollen.
Kurz vor 12 war das Auto da. Somit drei Stunden gewartet…. !
Fahrer bringt die Leute nach Krabi zum Busbahnhof und kassier dann in Cash ab, wenn man zum Hotel weiter möchte.

Le chauffeur nous a oublié. Aprés plusieurs appels non aboutis la secrétaire a repondu que son frère viendrait nous chercher mais elle ne savait pas à quelle heure. Au bout d'1h30 il est arrivé nous a déposé dans un endroit. Nous avons encore attendu 20 minutes. Et Aprés nous avons eu un chauffeur très pressé.

Départ prévu à 14h, la navette n'est jamais venue malgré les appels de la dame qui gère l'Office, nous avons dû attendre 1h dans une chaleur torride pour prendre celui de 15h qui était complètement rempli de gens et de bagages... très déçu de ce trajet.

Normally we would drive 4 hours and 40 minutes. We get there 1,5 hours before. We were surprised about that it was that quick.
We took a break for 15 minutes that we can buy some drinks. I can recommend that trip !

I booked the rond bus for my travel and they arranged me a new ride! They replayed really fast, the bus was planned only one hour later then what I originally had planned and I didn’t had to pay extra money (the bus ride from my location was longer then the other/rong location i booked) it was a real savior!

The journey should be 3:40h and it was more than 5 hours!!! The driver was delivering some packages during the trip, and we came to our hotel so late that we didn’t have time to go on our planned trip in Khao Sok, I’m not recommending this bus.

Reservé la noche de antes bastante tarde y aún así se presentó puntual en mi hotel. Tienes que estar 30 minutos antes, porque pone +/- 30 minutos de la hora de recogida. En mi caso fueron -30 minutos. Llegamos antes de lo estimado al hotel de destino. Muy bien y más económico que otros transportes

Van Minivan 14pax, Phichet Transport, Aug 21, 2023
I read the reviews for this company and we had the same experience. Van was old and smelly, driver was frustrated a lot while driving, driver missed a hotel and got super angry with the other passengers because they should have said something. We needed to pay more (only 100 baht) because our hotel was not on the beach and thus not in Ao Nang (it is). So yeah, for the money we could not expected more but there are services available that are nicer.

The drive drove super fast. He didn’t know were to drop people off and because of that it took longer to come to our destination. He also arrived 45 minutes later to pick us up. By far the worst taxi we had so far…

The Driver was Smoking inside the bus with a window open, however there are signs that it is phrohibed to smoke inside the bus and it could result in a fine…. Bit strange. The bus was 45min to late, but arrived on time.

The driver could barely speak english. After 1,5h of driving my friend needed to go badly to the toilette but the drivers wasn‘t concerned and answered: „1 hour“. After 2h we smelled some smoke, apparently the driver was smoking a cigarette inside the van. He even got lost on the route 2-3 times.

The taxi was early which was nice, however when we got to our destination the taxi driver missed our hotel which we didn’t realise and dropped off others first. When it came to us he trued to drop us off 5 minutes drive from our hotel. However after telling the driver we paid to be dropped at our hotel he started to drive us there. As he went to turn around he reversed into a tree and due to this he was shouting abuse it Thai for the journey back and blaming it on us as we didn’t say we passed our hotel. However we didn’t realise this and it’s the taxi drivers job to drive to our destination of which we had already told him where it was.

Der erwartete Bus (der auf dem Bild abgebildet war) kam als nicht also standen wir da so rum. Es fuhren viele solcher silbernen Busse an uns vorbei irgendwann mal blieb einer davon stehen und fragt wo wir hin wollen. Das sagten wir ihm und er nahm uns einfach mit zu einem Sammelplatz wo es dann mit dem Bus auf dem Bild zum Ziel ging.
Auch die Location auf der Seite ist nicht genau. Wir haben einfach am Platz gewartet wo wir mit dem Boot angelegt haben.

Driver knew which hotel to drop us off when leaving Krabi, however didn't realise he had passed it. We had to inform him and then organise for him to talk to the hotel to find it (the entrance was a little hidden). At the end he turned around and got us there (that's why only 4 out of 5 stars). Other than that perfect like we are used to from 12GO.

Just book a bus to Krabi town and take then a grab to ao nang.
It's the same price, but you don't need to wait for 30 min in Krabi town.
