Unfortunately, the individual travel routes were not clear. How long do you travel by van, how long do you travel by boat.
Where is the stopover (end with the van, departure by boat).
The travel time given was from 09:00 to 16:00. The ticket from the peer then stated arrival at 17:00 and in the end we only arrived at 18:00.
Original travel time increased from 7 hours to 9 hours. If we had known this from the beginning, we might have planned differently (an overnight stay in between/another means of transportation).
Pick-up was very punctual at 08:55 at the agreed location.

Leider sind die einzelnen Reiserouten nicht ersichtlich gewesen. Wie lange fährt man mit dem Van, wie lange fährt man mit dem Boot.
Wo ist die Zwischenstation (Ende mit dem Van, Abfahrt Boot).
Angegebenen wurde Reisezeit von 09:00 Uhr bis 16:00 Uhr. Auf dem Ticket vom Peer stand dann Ankunft 17:00 Uhr und letztendlich sind wir erst um 18:00 Uhr angekommen.
Ursprüngliche Reisezeit von 7 Stunden auf 9 Stunden. Hätten wir das von Anfang gewusst, hätten wir ggf. anders geplant (eine Übernachtung zwischendurch/anderes Reisemittel).
Abholung war sehr pünktlich um 08:55 Uhr an der vereinbarten Stelle.

Normally don’t do reviews but felt the need to calm nerves if worried about other reviews.
It was surprisingly good! After reading all the reviews everywhere it was hard not to be worried! The taxi picked us up from the hotel in Ao nang and dropped us at the bus depot in krabi with time to spare, bus to Surat Thani was A/C and comfortable. Had around 2/3 in Surat Thani so went to eat (loads of good places nearby - Milano was super close and tasty!) and then onto the boat! We obviously were quite lucky with the boat being not at all full so we got a nice couple of top bunks with fans and plugs! Slept well and couldn’t really feel the ‘rocking’ boat as described by others but was probably lucky with the weather! Anyway, only complaint is the smoking area outside has a vent next to it that allows the smell to travel into the sleeping area but wasn’t all the time at all so assume the guy smoking just sat blowing into the vent for fun? Anyway, definitely good trip and had little to worry about!

Driver was 2 hours late, which made us panic, along the journey he would pull over, get out and leave us in the taxi for 10-20mins without saying anything. In light of all this, he did get us there with 2 hours to spare for the ferry as it doesn’t leave until 10pm.

van picked us up from our hotel which was nice and comfortable but everything else sucked. we got dropped off at the pier with 4 hours before departure- there is no where to go in this area so we just sat on the boat waiting for 10pm. the actual boat it self was extremely uncomfortable with tiny short/thin beds which were all somewhat moist. people smoking in the downstairs inside and cockroaches around the beds too. overall a gross experience but it got us to the island lol

The taxi was great and the taxi driver help me en everything.
You are going to take a taxi, then a van and finally a night boat.
It's okay but the night boat it's not so comfortable so you're not going to rest a lot that night

the van was an hour late. the driver kept texting and making calls during the entire trip. then, the night ferry had tiny mattresses that were lined one next to the other, which meant sleeping next to total strangers. the bathroom was really bad too.
