Sapir BWe didn’t understand at first how long was the bus drive from Bangkok and we thought it will be the short part. Eventually the bus ride was 8 hours ride and the boat ride we’d 2 and a half. Overall the experience was great except the part we needed to wait 2 hours at the pier for the boat ride we arrived at 0500 in the morning and left at 0730 to the islands.
Oh and the cop bus was great. Brought us food and water and the chairs were very comfortable

Michael The trip was no continuous but let a huge hole from drop off location and where the next bus left. One hour across Bangkok to get the next station with no instructions how to get there. Added another 30/40% cost to the trip. Messed up !

Albert You start the journey at Lomprayah office in Khaosan Road. There you get your sticker to indicate what bus is the one for your trip. At some point they call everyone waiting to head towards the bus pick up point.
While the VIP bus was much better than I actually was expecting. In very good conditions, nice leather reclining sits, not overcrowded.
But I felt impossible to find the right position to actually fall sleep in. Around 4 am we arrive at the Chumphon port where we waited until 8 am to board the boat. I couldn't get any sleep for the whole night so I had to spend the rest of the day just sleeping in my apartment. I will definetly book the day bus next time or the plane.
The boat was nice, full of backpackers but quick 1.5h or so.

Ngoc HWe booked at the last minute in order not to have to worry about the connections between the train, the taxi and the ferry and it worked well. The communication through WhatsApp with Van2Go was excellent and really helped us get there with tips and advice so that our journey was good.
