There was a slight delay at the beginning, but it didn't affect the arrival time at the station at all. The comfort of the vehicle and the driver's service were excellent.

The original schedule was 16:00, with a pickup at the hotel At 15:30, we were informed that the driver will come at 16:30 and that pickup is at Mac Donald (2km from hotel) After calling I was able to maintain the pickup at hotel We were waiting and waiting and finally the driver arrived at 18:00 (we have a train at 21:00 in Surat Thani) Finally we started our drive to Surat Thani After 1h30 driving we stopped (2 flats wheel) from nowhere arrived a other van to rescue us After another van exchanged we arrived at train station and we picked up our train (just in time) Our feelings about the trip is mitigating: the driver was 2 hours late and the information we get was so poor… On the other side when the van stopped with the 2 flats wheels the organization to support us was excellent For information the first van was really comfortable the 2 other where standard
