You can be glad that you have arrived at your destination.
The voucher says pick-up at 9.20 am.
Then it says +/- 30 minutes.
So we waited in the lobby from 8.50 am.
Around 10.15 there was still no one there.
We called and were only told to wait. After a short background music, they hung up.
Around 11.15 there was still no one there. So we called the reception. The answer was that they were already there and we should wait.
The car arrived shortly before 12. So we waited three hours.... !
The driver takes people to the bus station in Krabi and then pays in cash if you want to continue to the hotel.

Man kann froh sein, dass man am Ziel angekommen ist.
Auf dem Voucher steht Abholung 9.20 Uhr.
Dann steht +/- 30 Minuten.
Somit warteten wir ab 8.50 Uhr in der Lobby.
Gegen 10.15 war immer noch keiner da.
Wir riefen an, dann kam nur als Auskunft, wir sollen warten. Nach kurzer Musik im Hintergrund wurde aufgelegt.
Gegen 11.15 war immer noch keiner da. So ließen wir von der Rezeption anrufen. Als Antwort kam, dass sie bereits im Ort sind und wir warten sollen.
Kurz vor 12 war das Auto da. Somit drei Stunden gewartet…. !
Fahrer bringt die Leute nach Krabi zum Busbahnhof und kassier dann in Cash ab, wenn man zum Hotel weiter möchte.

The driver forgot about us. After several unsuccessful calls, the secretary said her brother would pick us up, but she didn't know what time. After 1h30 he arrived and dropped us off. We waited another 20 minutes. Then we got a driver in a hurry.

The departure was 1 hour later than booked. Rather an old van. The driver was super friendly, was driving quite risky though.

I booked the night before quite late and he still showed up on time at my hotel. You have to be 30 minutes early, because it says +/- 30 minutes from pick up time. In my case it was -30 minutes. We arrived earlier than estimated at the destination hotel. Very good and cheaper than other transports.

Reservé la noche de antes bastante tarde y aún así se presentó puntual en mi hotel. Tienes que estar 30 minutos antes, porque pone +/- 30 minutos de la hora de recogida. En mi caso fueron -30 minutos. Llegamos antes de lo estimado al hotel de destino. Muy bien y más económico que otros transportes

Bus arrived as indicated in the time frame (+/- 30 min). We were taken from hotel to hotel. Unfortunately, the driver drove very fast and started one or two close overtaking maneuvers.

Bus kam wie angegeben in dem Zeitraum (+/- 30 min). Wir sind von Hotel zu Hotel gebracht worden. Der Fahrer ist leider sehr schnell gefahren und hat das ein oder andere knappe Überholmanover gestartet.
