Krabi to Khao San Destination Reviews

Good bus, good seats, airco, blanket and I felt safe. Arriving at 05.00 AM is early, but after that traffic gets heavy so a good choice.

I booked a 16:30 bus, then few hours later in the night i got an email that the bus is full and I can go in other bus 30 minutes earlier. The conversation was confusing, but finally I accepted the terms. My place in the bus was very good on the ticket (plenty space for legs) but non-english speaking coordinator told me to sit elsewhere so a group of drunk british hoes could sit together and annoy everybody. I (100kg man) ended up with a seat on the window side with barely any space to move. At least the seats were alright and we had few stops.

We left on time but arrived an hour early. The steward was grumpy and didn't say anything about dinner options, so we had to explore on our own, for which there was little time. The bus was comfortable, a bit cold but bearable.

The trip started by van, traveled 2 hours north from Krabi to a town to get on the tour bus that took us to Bangkok. This was stop one, found dinner nearby. Tour bus was nice, AC and full as expected. Bus seated could be reclined well back for sleeping. Stopped again one last time at midnight for 30 minutes at a restaurant. Driving overnight was good as traffic during the day would have made the trip much slower. Time schedule was on time.
