It was fast and almost dry. We didnt stop at koh phi phi as other reviews say. Luggage is put on the boat by the crew. We had 2 big suitcases and 2 carry on size backpacks. All and all a great transfer, although if you are prone to sea sickness, it will probably happen :) we had a windy day but low wave height, but my wife still got sick.

Took just over 2 hours not 1.5. No way near as bouncy as I thought it'd be. No spare seats after picking others up from phi phi . All in all crew ere great and the rice was safe.

It was a good journey and as comfortable as you’d expect. We had a stop where we could get a drink and go to the toilet if needed. However there were loads of random stops that had no explanations and no times given. It didn’t really make a difference as we were comfortable enough but it would’ve been nice to have a heads up or some info of how long we were stopping etc but overall a good trip.

Overbooked,was mean to go straight to Phuket from Koh Lanta but they stopped at phi phi island and picked up more passengers then they realised it’s overbooked and no seats they had to get them out of the boat was just waste of time stopping.

The ferries from Ko Lanta to Phuket were great, we had to change in Phi Phi and it was all organised well. The organisation of being assigned mini buses was also great. However, the transfer to Patong was awful. The driver was the worst we had in Thailand. Constantly accelerating full speed and slamming on the brakes. He near crashed into the back of so many cars. He was too busy watching youtube and facebook videos than concentrating on the road. I think we were unlucky with our driver.

Pick-up from the hotel on time. Ferry halfway within the time frame. You always have to reckon with delays.

The Van stopped a million times and the driver never informed us about how long we'll be at those random stops. Sometimes it was a minute, other times 20 minutes, so it was unclear whether we should stay inside the very full and not very comfortable mini van or if we can catch some air outside. Van also stopped at a bus stop about half way through and we had to switch busses. Which was very unexpected and the driver (again) didn't really explain what's happening. Very strange experience. Recommend taking the ferries instead.
