Ligia SThere are no details about the transfer and also about the differences in fares at the time of booking. We bought a ticket that said "sleeper boat" and had to sleep in the aisle, between the bunks, because the boat was full.
Talking to other passengers, we couldn't understand the logic or the difference in price for some people sleeping in beds in the air conditioning, and others crammed in the aisles outside the boat.
Then when we got on the van, the whole process was VERY disorganized. We had to get off the van at least 3 times, either to change vehicles or to check in. At no time was there an explanation about what we were doing, and the people were very rude and sometimes aggressive with the passengers.

Alan MThe boat was overcrowded and I was made sleep on a walkway outside with a thin blanket. Once we got to the van we were made change 3 times.

Maeva DSo we took the boat departure at 9pm, it’s a sleeper boat so everyone have a bed ! They woke up us at 5am, then from surat Thani we waited for a van, and then another van, and then another van ! At usual you never know where or when you’re going but everything work, even if at the end we arrived 2 hours late ! And also with some extra money they drop you in front of your hotel/hostel (between 100 and 300 I guess it depends how far you are from the pier)
