Khao San Boonsiri to Koh Samet Destination Reviews

S
Careful, this minuibus leaves from the new Mochit Minibus station across the road, not the old Mochit Chatuchak station (unfortunately taxi drivers only seem to know the old station). The minibus left 30 minutes later (7h30 not 7h) and we only arrived on Koh Samet at 11h45. It's a trip by speedboat, not the ferry, please fix the description. Since I get sick on speedboats, I was not too happy about this unwanted upgrade :(

Horrible bumpy ride with broken suspension. The whole drive in the minibus was literally an experience of sitting on a nervous spring jumping up and down. My watch thought I did a 3h exercise and congratulated my on my progress. They get you there but that’s all. Really bad experience.

The Journey was good, quick, decent. The seats in the back of the van were extremely small. Took a while before we could take off, we had no idea what all the hassle was about.

The bus arrived late on purpose to the pier (went around on circle for a while), so I missed the ferry for which I had already paid and at the ticket office they told me I had to pay extra for another boat.

Excellent. I'm glad I chose this minibus and ferry package. Everything was on time. It was promised to leave at 9:30am and arrive at the island at 1:40pm, and the schedule was accurate. The driver was excellent and the trip included a stop for a few minutes (after about an hour and a half of driving).
