Surat Thani to Khao Sok Destination Reviews

JL
Best experience. Boh is a great driver, knows the roads, drives very save during the evening and good communication about the environment as well. He also made a pitstop at 7/11 store, so that we could stack up and eat some snacks during the journey.

There was some problems. There was a 1,5h delayed. Probably the local leader person made a mistake and finally said that the 12go company didn’t give them the confirmation of hour trip. It was bullshit probably.
