The connection at the pier was chaos. Was sent to the wrong area by the staff and missed my connection

It rained heavily during the trip, and our suitcases were very wet inside. That's very bad. Everything else was very good.

Was very well organized. Got all my tickets in Don Sala to the airport. Only thing I will suggest is to make a break for some food on the way. Because in Surt Tani airport there is no real food.. for me to leave at 11:00 Koh Pha-Ngan until reaching Chiang Mai at 22:00 made my stomach scream…

Overall experience great, went from Koh Phangan to Surat Thani airport. The ferry is awesome, long scenic ride next to islands. The bus is comfortable, BUT the AC was jumping between 17-19C! Felt like in the fridge, when outside is around 35C -> that was really unpleasant.. so around and around 4/5 stars.
