The trip was touted as 1 Ferry and 1 minibus. Arrival time was set to 14.30. The Ferry arrived at 8.30 as planned. We were directed to the bus.
We then had to change to a minibus, then a second minibus and then a third minibus. information was scarce. I am used to Thailand and can ask around. Otherwise it would have been difficult.
We arrived over two hours late. The bus trips were from 8.30 - 16.30...
Alles in Ordnung, bis wir plötzlich in irgendeinem Reisebüro hielten und einige von uns dort aussteigen mussten, um auf einen neuen Bus zu warten. Dies dauerte leider 1,5 Stunden und wir kamen am Ende auch 1,5 Stunden zu spät an. Hat also am Ende alles geklappt.

Transport was fine, I’d just recommend not advertising you’ll get customers to Koh Lanta at 6pm and tell them at check in its actually more 8-9pm.
Catamaran to an hour from Nathon to Donsack pier then a coach to 2.5 hrs to the krabi office. All staff were really polite and helpful.
After a little wait a minivan took us to ko lanta crossing on the car ferry. Arrived just after 4pm all good.
The seats in the ferry were the best thing about this ride, and that says a lot because they were at best average. It was very unclear where to go, the ferry was in a clearly bad state and on arrival preceded to run right into the pier and making the worst docking I have ever witnessed. Then it came to the van. First was a very confusing transfer from the pier to the van. It was very unclear when the transfer would arrive or where to go. Then the van itself. Finding the right van was a headache. The ride was uncomfortable and the ac leaked a lot of water in my lap. Then all of a sudden we were dropped of halfway through to wait another hour for another confusing van to pick us up. This was if possible even more uncomfortable, the driver was rude and we took a far longer route in order to pick up more people. We arrived at our destination more than 2 hours late and were dropped off on the street and quite a bit away from the destination on the ticket.
The transfer was quick and very good. Enough toilet breaks. The only “problem” was that the engine could have been stopped a few times, but i think it was meant to spend coolness throughout the trip. For me 7,5h of a running engine are a bit much. The driver was friendly.
Really really bad, I was supposed to arrive at 2:30 PM and I finally arrived at my hotel at 8:00 PM. The driver didn't know where my hotel was and was very unpleasant! The transport was really awful and I never had any clear directions on where I was supposed to go!
