Great experience. Driver was on time and waited for us even though our flight from Surat Thani was delayed. Took us straight to our hotel in Khao Sok. Vehicle was average van you'd be in as the rest of Thailand.

It was warm and we didn’t have good places. All the way in the front you don’t feel the ventilation.
