The Kata transfer took over 2 hours because the driver had no idea where he was going… kept on driving back and forth to the same places… there was also a noisy lady sitting next to the driver that wouldn’t stop yelling on the phone (this was at 7am)
The bus dropped us off at the port and the 2:30 ferry was full so we had to wait till 17:30 for the next one! So unorganized… took me 14 hours in total
Everything was on time. Only the taxi who has taken us to the busstop wasn’t organized. Seems like he has quiet no idea where he has to drive, pick up the customer. After a never ending drive a tyre has a puncture so that we were taken to the busstop by a tuktuk all the way and there are 30min. left… It was very uncomfortable with the luggage between our legs. After arriving at the busstop everything was fine and we almost get the bus. Not the newest one but ac was inside so it was ok. For just 40€ a good deal.
I’m travelling with a large suitcase, so it can sometimes be difficult to know in advance whether I need to book an additional ticket for my luggage.
On my previous trip with a minibus, I was required to book an extra seat for my suitcase. This time, however, I travelled on a bus with a proper luggage compartment underneath, so an additional ticket wasn’t necessary.
It would be very helpful if this information could be made clearer when booking, for example by indicating whether the bus has an underneath luggage compartment and whether a large suitcase requires an extra seat.
Apart from that, I had a great journey. Thank you!
All good! Very nice trip. By bus and by water ferry jet. No problems. Sandwiches and snacks were offered on the ferry. Bus made one stop for 30 mins for a meal.
