Koh Phangan to Krabi Destination Reviews

DS
Decent service. Van wasn’t a bus as expected, but a tiny van which was very hot and cramped. We stopped a half hour in for a service break before continuing the 3 hour drive to Krabi. Boat service great!

The driver was Smoking a joint and was high while driving. We were driving really fast. He also stopped 3 times for people to get a snack. And the Trip included a dropoff at the hotel. The driver asked us to pay an additional 100 Baht and Said that the „normal“ stop is at the bus station. The next time I would rather choose the option to drive in a bigger bus without hotel dropoff. The space in the van was not very comfortable. All in all we arrived at our hotel with a big headache and were very stressed out because of this whole van ride.

The Ferry was great and well organized, but the bus ride took a long time. After the Ferry arrived we had to wait almost two hours before our bus could depart (waiting for other ferries to arrive). The bus did one stop after half an hour driving and then 3 hours without any stops.

Quite on time. After arriving with the ferry we had to wait an hour until we could board the bus, 20 minutes after we started there was a twenty minute food stop, which nobody really needed. All in all the trip was comfy if a little too long. We were 45-50 minutes behind schedule - not because of traffic but unnecessary breaks. Bus journey wasn’t a mini van but a bus, which stopped very central in Krabi Town.

The bus did not drop us off at the terminal saying that it was closed, which was not true! We had to pay for a cab when it was not what was agreed.

The crossing on the ship was very pleasant. I often struggled with seasickness, which was no problem at all on this ship. Bus transfer also very well organized and everything on schedule.
