Khao Sok to Koh Samui Destination Reviews

We had a pick up from the hotel and were leaving with the van from a central point in Koh Sok. This point was just new, clean, comfortable and offered drinks like coffee. All seats in our van were full but still the trip was rather comfortable. The driver was driving correct and give us in the middle a coffeebreak. I can recommand this transfer.

The first minivandriver was not very friendly and kind of wild on the road. He picked up a lot of extra people along the way for short distances. Once in phantim office everything went okay and smooth.

The transfer from the boat terminal towards our hotel was in an old car ( call it a van). All the other transfers were great. At the boat terminal there was a strange situation. An old woman pushed us to take this old car and what looked for us as the official driver agreed with that. The official driver took our tickets but didn’t drive us to the hotel. After a long day of transfer this was the only remark. The comfort in the last vehicle was poor. The comfort during the other transfers was good.
