A person hustle us for us to pay money to put our bag on bus. We didn’t know if it was a scam or not. Then found out he was the driver- how were we to know. Then our bus was scheduled for 10:30am but as we were early told to get on packed 9:30 . Then lady was upset that my wife needed to go to the toilet. (Note we did have a hour for or scheduled bus) Bus waited - and jammed onto the bus - i also would have gone to the toilet if I had time

Booked the 8.30am bus. Did not leave until 9.15am once they have enough passengers! Not good enough.

It was very well organized. Once you find the counter you are lead to the bus, then at the pier you have to show your ticket at the ticket counter, they send you to the boat. The bus is okay, but the leg space is mini.

Gets you to where you need to be, even stops for toilet break. The only problem I had was they charged me for my bag. Upon booking my trip, I was aware that I could only bring 1 "big luggage" up to 20kg - and that's what I did. However, the driver assumed my bag weighed more. He did not even double check the weigh with a scale - he simply assumed! He called the ticket lady over and she asked me for 100THB. Simply ridiculous. The rest of the ride was nothing special, but quick and and cheap enough.
