Really good driver. Went very smooth with decent speed. He also recommended taking a different pier to Ao Nang so we could get to Railay beach from the east side which was closer to our hotel. Only problem was the AC was on all the time and the lid was broken so you could not turn it off, but Id the driver turned the whole ac off it would be very hot. Thankfully we had a jumper but bear this in mind when taking a

We asked to be picked up at 645am but the driver must have checked our train time and was there waiting for us. We were very relieved to see him with a name card for us as there were many people trying to sell us taxis, tickets etc. We were surprised to have a whole mini van to ourselves with air conditioning and the driver had plenty of water for us too. Seat belts for us and our little one. It was also a very scenic journey through jungle and fields. We were dropped directly at our accommodation. Such a great experience, thank you! Highly recommend!
