All connections were on time. Ferry and bus were comfortable, less space in a van from Khao Sok.

The van was 20 minutes late and was overbooked. In the end it worked out as the person that was not fitting in the bus could take another one. Good driving, will book again.

Unfortunately our booked transportation was cancelled a few hours before due to "operational issues". The Email service luckily booked us on an earlier time we could reach nonetheless. This bus was slightly late and overcrowded then. All possible places we're occupied and in the whole room between seats also people we're Standing. Due to the high load the air was quite Bad and the vehicle had mayor Problems on the Road, only creeping up the Mountains. At least we reached our Destination somehow only slightly delayed.
