My transfer from Ao Nang to Ko Lanta went smoothly overall. The first driver called me 15 minutes before the scheduled 10:00 pickup to confirm the location, instructing me to wait on the main road. Although I was initially concerned when I didn’t see any vans stop directly at my street, the driver arrived a few minutes late in an unmarked van. The driver continued to pick up additional passengers in the area. We switched vans about 30 minutes into the trip while still in Krabi. This driver made a couple of stops to collect items. Two hours into the trip, we made a brief stop at a gas station to use the restrooms. The van boarded the ferry at 12:40, which took around 20 minutes to cross. Despite some minor deviations from the plan, I arrived at my hotel around the estimated time. I would use this service again because it’s affordable and easy to book.

Got from A to B with no issue. Communication was good and it was easy to book the tickets. The van was packed with other travellers and their bags, so we didn't get much leg room. At the back seat, it was quite bumpy! However good experience, predictable, with AC in the car and a bit late on the predicted time. Would recommend if you can survive the above mentioned

Picked up on time. A lot of waiting around at the public bus station but handy to go door to door.
