Unfortunately, the entire journey was ruined by a very rude driver who shouted and forced passengers to sit in certain places.

The company was organised and on time but the boat was absolutely packed and extremely hot, with quite a lot of waiting around . Felt okay when moving and the breeze came in but not a super comfortable ride.

We were picked up right at the hotel by a woman in a private car and driven to the bus station in Krabi. “Wait 10 minutes,” they said. More than 30 minutes later, the bus finally arrived—and it was already completely full. We were four more people, including luggage, trying to get on. There was no luggage compartment, so people ended up sitting with bags and suitcases. My friend was squeezed into the back, unable to move or even look out the window. I understand that people want to make money, but this whole setup was completely unacceptable. The only positive thing was that the driver actually drove safely (though he probably had to—otherwise someone would have ended up with a suitcase in their head…).

Picked up from my hotel in a taxi, taken to Krabi central bus terminal and after a short wait we set off in a very comfortable mini bus. Fantastic value for money.
