Koh Lanta to Phuket Airport Destination Reviews

MK
While booking there was no space to put the hotel/accommodation for the pick up, so I wrote a WhatsApp to the company, but there was no reaction, we had to go to an office so they would confirm our pickup and gave us a pickup time. And the driver forgot he had to go to Phuket airport and let us out of the van 6km away from the airport so we had to get a taxi for the rest of the way!

It was ok, very high waves and bumps on the water. Which was scary and felt a bit unsafe.

The ride was fine, but beforehand was chaos and no organisation. No one had a clue where to stand.

Confusing, multi-change travel without clear instructions. Nearly passed out in the heat of the uncooled van.

Translation: It was a mass transport. No service, the staff didn’t speak to us and left the fight over seats to the passengers. Of course they can’t do anything about the sea and the waves—we were all soaking wet—but there was nothing to hold on to. There were tears, people were throwing up (they could have handed out bags), parents with children should have been warned that it would be genuinely frightening. For the price, the guys really didn’t make any effort. In the end, you were just glad to have survived.

Efficient booking and nice ferry. Not too crowded and had toilets and snack bar. Only suggestion is to have better communication when we had to swap boats as that was confusing.
