We had to change vehicles 4 times, no one told us anything, everyone just shouted. The van was completely full because some people had too much luggage that blocked a seat and I had to sit in the front where there was no real seat, there was no seatbelt, no head rest and my head almost hit the ceiling. The driver went way too fast and was constantly on his phone texting or watching videos. After contacting the support team they just told me they were sorry for my unpleasant experience.
Ferry from Koh phangan to Surat thani, where the driver picked me up and brought me to the van. 1
Part very good, no problems, smooth ferry ride.
Then we drove to the other harbour and wanted almost an hour for the next ferry. After that the van was pretty full. 20 min ride, then we took another stop at a gas station, where you could use the toilet, eat something or buy snacks. Last stop before driving to Krabi, which was smooth again. Seats are not big, little legroom
In Krabi we were dropped off at an 12go office, checked in again (gave the name of the hotel) and waited... No information how long or where we're going next... I assumed I might take another ferry, I was wrong, but I was never told.
After I asked the guy he called the driver who was 5 min away. Still thinking he would just drop us off at the next ferry. He took us to Koh lanta. But we made 3 more stops in between, no information, nothing. The van was FULL!
The communication could be way better! So you know where you're going or how long you're waiting somewhere.
My time was good tho. Leaving from Koh phangan at 8:30, should arrive at the hotel at 6 Pm, I was there 30 min earlier. But still a very long travel day

A little hard to find the different meeting points. Driver told us he would drive us to our hotel for free but kicked us out in the middle of the road after a while (I have a broken foot)

The trip was good but unfortunately the schedule has not been respected
We arrived at Donsak Pier and waited for a while for our van. Needed to call for help. The van arrived and took us to the other pier and we were quickly pushed in a fully book bus. Nearly missed the connection. In Krabi we had to wait for one hour for connecting minivan to our destination.
There was no info about the the stop in Krabi neither that we would travel by bus. It ended well and we were in time! No big problems just lack of information.

Our driver was excellent! We had a private transfer because no other had booked, so we had a lot of fun with that guy!
Not the best. Lots of messing about. The bus is about 30 years old and the toilet is unusable. The mini bus driver did 3 detours which included collecting his wife and 3 children who were in the minibus too. Probably not a huge problem for people getting on in Krabi but we’d been up since 6am travelling from Koh Phangan and by 4pm, we just wanted to get off the transport and be there, not messing about with detours. We went with Lomprayah thinking it would be a better service than some of the other operators but don’t think it was worth the extra cost.
On this route, you will change VAN to another one in Krabi. In the end, the route looks like this: Koh Phangan to Donsak ferry. Then VAN from Donsak to Krabi. Then another VAN from Krabi to Koh Lanta.
Part of the road from Donsak to Krabi was terrible. The VAN was old and uncomfortable. In addition, some kind of device was beeping irritatingly on the dashboard all the way. It made it very difficult to sleep. When I asked to turn off the device or make it quieter, the driver reacted inappropriately - stopped VAN and tried to drop me off right on the road.
The VAN on the way from Krabi to Koh Lanta is also not very comfortable, but it is not so long to go. It is wonderful that VAN brings you directly to the selected hotel.
