코 란타 출발 푸껫 도착버스

꽤 긴 시간이었지만 2~3번의 휴식 시간을 가졌습니다. 모든 것이 좋았습니다.

This was quite long but we did 2 or 3 breaks. Everything was good.

The rider was very friendly and drove fast but safe. There was enough space, altough for taller People it can feel a bit crammed. The bus stopped at a lot of random places to pick up others of groceries. The bus made three small stops so you have time to make a bathroom stop and buy some food. The only thing you should not do is ask the driver (signs hanging in the bus) to go to one of the beaches (Kata, karon,...). He'll charge you 100Baht pp just to put you on the local bus (which Cost 40baht). Overal a good way of transportation, despite the negative reviews from others i was happy to have a save and comfortable ride. Do keep in mind this is Thailand, time schedules aren't as exact as mentioned, so don't book other transportation basad on the arrival time...

Based on previous reviews booked expecting a bad experience and do be dropped at the wrong terminal, but the pink striped bus actually picked us up (20 mins early) from our hotel, and took us all the way to the correct bus station (terminal 1) in Phuket. Maybe we got lucky. Plenty of stops for food and toilet Brint insect repellant as bus fully of mosquitos

Uncomfortable and slow

My ticket stated I would be picked up from my hotel with the final destination being Bus Terminal 1 in Phuket. My pickup time was 7-7:15AM with a note stating the bus could be 30 minutes early or late. I started waiting at 6:30AM. By 7:25AM there was no sign of the bus, I called the number on my receipt (+66611698236) and the person told me the driver was close by. I ended up getting on the bus (small white bus with a pink stripe around it) around 7:40ish. I think the bus made it to the Khlong Mak Pier at the very northern part of the island just before 9AM. The bus is brought to Hua Hin Pier via ferry, you stay on the bus. After, the bus makes a stop at the Krabi airport, then the Krabi bus terminal. I had just enough time to use the bathroom at the bus terminal before getting onto a different bus (larger bus with a little bit more room) to Phuket. We arrived at the Phuket Bus terminal 2 at 1:30PM, which was the ETA on my ticket. However, this is the bus terminal 2, which is about 14 minutes north of bus terminal 1 (destination stated on the ticket) via car. I was told to just take a taxi to get to wherever I was going. I ended up taking the local pink bus at terminal 2 for 15 baht versus the taxi which I think was something like close to 300 baht. :0 All in all, it was an adequate service. I just liked the convenience of the hotel pick-up since I was staying so far south on Koh Lanta. It would have cost me around 400 baht just to get to Saladan Pier. I took a dramamine pill before the trip so I slept through most of the ride : ). It was annoying that the destination wasn't what was indicated on the ticket, but it was fairly easy to get to my actual destination via public transport. I don't know if this service always stops at bus terminal 2 or if it sometimes stops at bus terminal 1. The employee's reaction upon seeing my ticket when I inquired about the change in final destination made it seem like they always stop at terminal 2. Anyway, it wasn't a major inconvenience because I got to my hotel at the check-in time. ( : Yes, if you're tall you might feel cramped, especially on the first bus that takes you from your hotel on Koh Lanta to Krabi. Yes, people's large backpacks and suitcases are just kind of placed wherever. The A/C is blasting so make sure you have something you can drape on yourself should you get cold. Bring a book and a snack if you can't sleep through the ride. This bus didn't make any stop for us to use the restroom or get snacks. If I ever find myself back on Koh Lanta , I would consider using this service again.

Transfer from hotel to first change od a bus was great after we changed the bus it was weird because the driver left us in different terminal that was on the ticket and said he is not going any further.

It went pretty much as expected and according to previous reviews. The driver arrived somewhat late but without much trouble. We reached the destination with somewhat less than 2 hours of delay due to some stops throughout. The driver was quite friendly in the beginning, though seemed more bothered in the end. It was a fair deal overall but be aware that the longer your legs, the more uncomfortable it’ll be, especially given the amount of time you spent squished onto an A/C minibus from early in the morning until the afternoon. You’ll know to make the best choice for yourself.
