We had two flights in 20 hours and hadn’t slept for 2 days going into this. We needed to sleep. I have never been so comfortable in any vehicle before. We were practically lying down in an extremely comfy chair. The cabin was cool which is good for sleep, they also gave us a planket for comfort. Food was provided before it. They were tasty and filling. Staff were lovely This is the best service we have found in Thailand. I highly reccomend

Despite my misgiving it worked well. My train ticket never arrived until within 24 hours of the journey which caused me anxiety. However the journey itself worked well even though the train was over an hour late arriving in Surat Thani. A good way of getting from Bangkok to Samui

I was not happy that the driver allowed people to smoke inside the bus next to the driver cab with the the window open. Do you allow smoking on your buses?

The air conditioning at the back of the bus was defective and that I had to endure a 10 hour bus trip sweating!!! I informed the driver and staff about it and did not do anything.
