Hua Lamphong to Koh Samui Destination Reviews

FN
Simply really the best you can expect. Friendly staff, clean toilet on the bus, seats that could be reclined till almost completely horizontal. Snacks, drinks, a blanket and a pillow. Yes, a switch of buses early in the morning, but this was communicated in advance. All good

Surprised by the service on board provided with only an 1 Hour flight from Bangkok to Koh Samui. The food served was super tasty, the cabin crew of Bangkok Airways was lovely, all was on time.

We had a great experience! We were a bit stressed because of some reviews but the bus was very comfortable and it had a toilet. The boat was also fine, it was big, clean and not too rocky. The boat ride quite long tho because of all the stops. Each stop is pretty lengthy.

The Bus was great, everything was on time and worked fine! Sadly, the air conditioning above my (very comfortable seat) was broken and couldn’t be turned off. I tried turning it away from me but was still freezing even tho I wore long clothes.

It's a shame that it's not listed that the ferry stops at other islands before reaching Koh Samui.
