Koh Phi Phi to Koh Samui Destination Reviews

Smooth journey - all connections made. However don’t expect any instructions. The route is Phi phi - Krabi - Donsak pier - samui On arrival at Krabi just ask any of the travel people there what to do next and how to locate your driver. Everyone was very helpful. The van is small and will be full - take plenty of water with you!

Nobody contacted us to guide us. I tried contacting the hotline and nothing no one told us what should we do, who will wait us at the ferry station or anything. In the van I had a seat in the back and they put all the baggages in such a way that I couldn t sit down because the sit was deformed.

The booking was very simple. The application calculated the entire amount of the trip which contained two ferries and a van. No worries at all. Thank you so much!!

We missed our ferry because the driver was picking up random people from the street and making parcel deliveries whilst we were in the van. Wouldn’t recommend. We arrived ant iur destination almost 4 hours longer than expected.

A bit confused on the eticket i received. It was issued by 12Go. However your 12Go Support told me I need a ticket from the operator in order to get on the ferry. But when I arrived the pier, the eticket issued by 12Go worked. So information not clear.
