Krabi to Koh Tao Destination Reviews

The driver was 45 minutes late.

The journey was hellish - either due to choppy waters or due to the driver brazing through the sea like a race car. Not to mention we still reached 2 hours late than the promised time.

So efficient and helpful! Easy communication through what’s app to help find the location and keep up to date. They were really accomodating to me as I had trouble getting to the pick up location and they made sure to pick me up on time so I didn’t miss the van and ferry. Super great company to book with :)
