This company SUCKED. 💯 Trip: Hua Hin to Koh Samui (for context, I have lived in Thailand for 20+ years and currently live on Koh Samui, so ~ not my 1st rodeo) 2 big busses pulled up at Hua Hin clock tower, no instruction or direction of which bus to get on, probably 40 passengers going back and fourth between the 2 busses not knowing which one to get on. 🤷‍♂️ The guy looking at tickets and packing the bags kept saying "show me the number, show me the number". I kept pointing to the reservation number on my phone, he literally pushed me to the side,😤 After probably 10 or 15 minutes and multiple times trying to show him "the number", he grabbed someone else's phone and said show me the number and pointed to the 12go logo in the email header 😅 FML 🤦‍♂️. Luckily I saw my name on the ticket in his hand and the little Thai know, I said, that's me, that's my name, which caused him to look and then allow me and my 12 year old son to board. This was an over-night bus. The ticket I purchased said we would arrive 9:30am at at the Nathon pier. We landed on the island at 11:00am and the Raja pier 🤦‍♂️ Total shit show. 🎯 Book w a different company. 💯

Cannot rate the staff on the ferry more highly. The attentiveness and friendliness was unbelievable especially given the rough seas and people being sick. They could have not done more to make those feeling rough, comfortable

Pickup was over an hour late, chair did not recline, and worst of all ferry ticket wasn't booked with the ferry provider, so the ferry wasn't guaranteed.

The took another harbour to prevent extra miles with the bus. Overall took it a few hours more on the water and was very less comfortable than travel by bus. No communication at all because none of the drivers spoke other than Thai.
