He drove very very fast. In every curve I thought the centrifugal forces were going to throw us over.

Really good service, came on time and was taken straight from airport to my hotel for a reasonable price. Would 100% recommend to relieve the stress of having to sort transport once there. The only slightly confusing thing was finding the mini bus once I had left arrivals as there are so many that look the same.

I was Bundled into a van, the driver couldn’t do less than double the speed limit but I got to where I was going quicker so shouldn’t complain really.

4 hours ride instead of 2. Not enough space for luggage to travel comfortably.

The driver tried to make me get out of the van away from my hotel as he said I could walk the rest of the way. When I explained my bag was too heavy he got angry. He dropped me at the hotel as requested. Then when he got my bag he threw it on the floor and said it was light and I could’ve walked. Really shook me up. I’m a lone female traveller and that type of aggression is awful to experience. The additional time on his journey would’ve been max 5 minutes and it was written on my ticket they would drop me at the hotel. Pretty shocking behaviour. The driver also left Krabi airport, we drove for twenty minutes only to return back to the airport to pick up two more passengers!
