The ferry was really good, comfy, team was nice. However, we won't recommend the minibus company as we were really afraid. Longest three hours of our life. Was it a Mariokart race ? Maybe. The bus driver was driving so fast and was at the phone at the same time. Sometimes, it felt like he was going to fall asleep. We'll give a two stars note because it's a miracle we didn't die lol.

Great transfer, no problem with ferry upon arriving at office, and we easily found the minivan driver after our ferry, despite it being a bit delayed. Minivan had good ac and was clean - and also made a stop for toilet/food for about 15 minutes which was good. Overall, great easy experience from Ko Phangnan to Ao Nang

I'd previously booked with Lomprayah and it was amazing, the bus was great and spacious plus the process of finding the bus, getting tickets etc was so smooth but this was horrible. when you get off the ferry (which was fine) you have no direction at all where to get the van. At the bus stop I had to ask 3 people (it doesn't say on the 12go pdf) and I was just told to contact the driver from my pdf ticket but there was no information regarding this given. Then you're vaguely directed towards a waiting area but if I didn't walk further than what I was told I would've missed the van because there's no signs just lines of drivers. Then our driver sat there for 40 minutes with all of us in the van before he drove off and made like 3 breaks so we were over 1 1/2 hours late

Everything was perfect! The ferry was big and spacious and the van was new, clean and the driver was very nice. We arrived a bit later, but that was not a problem for us.
