Ao Nang to Surat Thani Town Destination Reviews

TF
Generally, it was good. The AC in the car was clearly at its limit though. But fair enough, was a very hot day. Also the driver started to drive kind of unresponsibly fast/adventerous at some point. Also, I booked the extra luggage seat as advised in the description but it was a waste of money. The car had more than enough space. And also all seats were in use by other people. So they just silently took my extra money and also booked someone else on the same seat, as well.

Trip went well. The van arrived on time and left us in the bus station where we went in another van. The trip can be purchased separately

Very smooth and easy. The only thing is we weren't sure of what was happening the whole time, when we needed to change vehicle etc.

We weren’t told we would have to change transport multiple times to get there. Then we were packed into a full minivan for the majority of the journey, with all our bags squeezed in on top of us. This was made worse by the fact that the driver had to stop several times to pick up packages which meant there was even less room in the minivan. Also the drivers driving was very poor and borderline dangerous! Throughout this nothing was explained to us.
