Becky BReally bad weather, the boat stopped half way, the waves were so rough the boat felt as if it would capsize. The captain’s were great though

Dalove WCheck in went quick and smooth. No need to print ticket you can show on your phone. Only need to check and weigh luggage if it it larger than carry on size on airplane. If it is you must weigh and check and bring to ferry yourself.
Ferry was decent not really comfortable considering the time from Koh Samui to Koh Tao and you make a stop in Koh Phangan as well. The benches are steel and sit up high, if you are petite feet might not touch the floor. Inside cabin has air conditioning but seats are not very comfortable like other ferries. Small market stand on board with nuts/chips/soda.
Ferry had many people laying on the floor because size not large enough for everyone to have a seat unfortunately.
The captain did a great job navigating even though people kept coming to front of the boat and standing in his way forcing him to honk the horn at them to move.
Overall, not a bad 3 hour journey. We all arrived safely.

Laura GThe boat was slightly delayed in taking off from Koh Samui due to bad weather which worked for us as our flight was delayed and we would’ve missed it! We waited around a while in Ko Pha Ngan for people to board/disembark. Arrived in Koh Tao 45 minutes after expected arrival time. The boat ride from Koh Samui to Ko Pha Ngan was smooth. However from Pha Ngan to Tao was very rocky. Lots of people being sick and holding on. The staff on the boat were great, making sure all passengers were okay and handing out sick bags. Thankfully we didn’t feel sick. Maybe the travel sickness pills worked or sitting in the middle of the boat helped with motion sickness. We sat in the middle left of the boat and us and our luggage got very wet from the waves splashing up. Overall very organised trip and wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be!

Florian TWomit Tour - no problem, if you’re sober, you will make it we had good waves, and the so-called catamaran was for jumping on the sea. Service staff everything was excellent. I will say on time. All you have to do is exchange your voucher against a ticket and you’re fine.

Jasmin MCheck in und Boarding was quick and easy. Sea was rough that day but the crew offered bags for when you get seasick and they took care of everyone. I can def recommend going to Koh Tao but when you get seasick quickly, consider taking another ferry boat instead of speed boat.
