From the airport, walked to Seatran reception. Got on a minivan to DonSak pier, smooth ride. At DonSak pier, waited for about 45 min to get on the ferry to Bangrak pier. Nice airconditioned ferry. Luckily time was on my side with no major delays. Great service

The staff does not understand English at all, so the communication when and where to leave or where to get off was very slow. Otherwise, it went quickly.

The trip was perfectly organized, with minibuses and drivers already waiting for us. The only really bad thing are the boats of Raja Ferry. If you want to feel safe, avoid this company. The boat is more than rusty, the life rafts are rotten, fire extinguishers and safety buoys are completely missing and the few life jackets, which I saw, were locked behind bars.
