Forst bus from krabi to Surat thani was great. The transfer to krabi from there was aweful. The driver was an absolute lunatic on the road, and I've been in SE asia for months so I'm used to the roads by now. He was also incredibly rude, pretended to be deaf and not speak English when it suited him and despite us paying extra to be dropped off at the hotel, he never asked where or what our hotel was and I had to have a shouting match with him to get him to turn around to go back to our hotel as he insisted on driving everywhere at 100mph despite me trying to direct him where to go.

Bathroom was really disgusting, no toilet paper or soap. Bus was swaying back and forth making it really hard to sleep. At least it was air conditioned and I made it out alive

We were going from Bangkok to Krabi via Surat Thani. The journey began on time. The seats were clean, reclining and comfortable. They provided complementary bite-size cake, water and a blanket. It was a smooth journey. There was a stop around midnight for food and washroom. The place was average and prices were high but we packed things from 7 11. We were dropped off at a station in Surat Thani and had to wait 1 hour for connecting van to Krabi. The van was comfortable as well. The van then dropped us at Krabi terminal on time from where we took the public tuk-tuk towards Ao Nang city.
