Phuket Airport to Koh Lanta Destination Reviews

This trip went smooth, left 30 minutes later than mentioned time. First ferry was comfy, however, then you stop at PhiPhi to take another boat which is smaller than a ferry and slower than a speedboat. The second one wasn’t as comfy especially with a baby.

The whole trip was straight forward we booked it from the internet with lanta petpailin and everything was as smooth as it gets. Though we had to make our way to Rassada pier anyway they don't advertise transfer. The actual trip was very smooth we had to change boat in phi phi island but our guide there made sure everything to be smooth. The 1st boat had a snack Bar with very reasonable prices the 2nd boat was ok but anyway from phi phi to ko lanta is only like 30-40 minutes. Have in mind on 2nd boat there will be a lady advertising for taxis...I can't tell for sure if it worth it or not but she also made sure everything to be smooth. Grab app is NOT working in kolanta

Booking was easy. Started 45 minutes late but still made the connection at phi phi. They offered arranged transport at the Saladin pier which was great!

If you travel from Phuket to Koh Lanta a boat change is needed. First Ferry was very nice with coffe offered and lot os spacious. Second boat was terrible, small sits and if raining along he route baggages get wet as they are stored outside

I wish I could give 5 stars. Everything was great until we got on the boat and the crew was sitting in the bow of the boat smoking cigarettes the entire trip from Phuket to Koh Lanta. I was sick to my stomach the entire trip because I had to breathe their secondhand smoke. It would be nice if they could refrain from smoking so that passengers can enjoy some fresh air or even just smoke at the back of the boat! Other than that, the van shuttle service was on time and we arrived as scheduled in Koh Lanta. Communication was pretty good. They reached out the day before pickup to confirm our pickup location. Everything went smoothly.

Although the plane was delayed we managed to get to the pier for the speedboat just in time - so many thanks to 12go and the taxi driver.
