Thomas ABooked two tickets to Ao Nang but what they don't tell you is that there is a minibus connection in Surat Thani where they charge you again to get to your actual destination hotel. 200 baht each and if you lose your paper ticket some people get charged double. Poor communication and a bit of a scam.

Juliana VI took the bus from Bangkok to Ao Nang. I sat at the upper deck and the bus was fine. No water on the toilet and the driver was really speeding up for the entire time, but this is the norm here. Just be prepared to wait for around 2h30 at the drop off point in Surat Thani to get the second bus. Contrary to some reviews here I found everything well organized, you just need to pay attention to instructions. Second bus was not so good but it was just for a few hours. To sum it up: show up really early, pay attention to instructions and you will be fine.

Nadir RTrain + Van from Bangkok to Surat to Krabi
Overall, I did not have a great experience in the first half, which consists of 85% of the trip.
Most of the blame, falls on me because I have thought that they would book me a place in the 2nd class sleeper part of the train - mind you when I checked with the family that travelled with the same agency, they had been out in said carriage so I was rightfully pissed. Which they did not, in fact, they placed me in the 3rd class and I had to sit for 10 hrs straight were it not for the places next to me being empty. I tried to upgrade while on the train but it was considered full. For those who need to charge their phone, there are no sockets or USB entries. So be sure your phone is charged.
It was an experience for sure.
The second part of trip Surat to Krabi was not bad. The Agency is very communicative and very clear which is a saving grace.

Marion NThe beginning of the journey went well. After changing vehicles for my final destination, the driver asked me for money to take me to my hotel, even though it was supposed to be included in the fare, especially since we had already passed my hotel during the trip. I refused. He dropped us off in the city center.

Alexandru DWas a mix experience I didn't feel Thai welcoming vibe. Plus the bus was different then the one in pics looked less comfortable and old. Overall was a good experience I took us safe and I'm grateful for that
