The driver came to pick me up just a little bit before 12. He drove us to the ferry terminal where we got our tickets and waited to board the ferry for about 20 minutes! Ève worked out great!

It was quiet hard as the sea had lots of waves and people started to feel sick… There for some of them puked and had to do it in small bags that someone else gave them. It would have been nice to give those bags just in case for people that feels sick.

Great transfer, ontime and speedy. Takes only 45mins, we were sailing in rough seas but the driver navigated them really well. Nice experience going via the islands on route between Ao nang and phi phi. Remember there is a 20baht arrival fee in phi phi

If there was a pick up even 5 minutes earlier then I wouldn’t have had to wait an hour on the next ferry but apart from that it was smooth and I got there not too late.

Picked up on time from hotel and was a pretty smooth process. The expected arrival time was way off. Was supposed to arrive in Koh Pi Pi at 3 and arrived at 4.

The vehicle we booked came to pick us up at the hotel. This one left without asking the reception to call us in our room (20m from the reception). We were lucky enough to find a Tuk Tuk who was able to bring us to the bottom of the boat in the delais (20 minutes margin). Fortunately, otherwise we would have missed the last boat of the day and had to take a new hotel night and lose the next. Brief very unhappy with this transfer.

Driver late picking us up and then drove in an extremely unsafe manner, speeding at up to 100kms an hour in a 50km zone. When we arrived at the terminal at about 12.50 we were informed that check in was 12.30, an hour before departure. We then sat and waited for 40 minutes before boarding ferry, which was quite comfortable.
