A point to point transfer was complicated by having to tell different drivers 5 times our destination. We had van swaps, 3 different drivers, forced waits at different points and no one who really even knew where we had paid to be transferred to. Ferry was great. Call me taxi was not.

We had to sit on a sort of emergency seat next to the driver's seat, and there was no proper seatbelt and it was also super uncomfortable.

Van

Vans are a great alternative - or, in many cases - your only option - if you need to travel overland within one and the same province or neighbouring provinces or states. Vans ply the roads between Koh Samui and Khao Lak, too.

Things to remember: When travelling by van with huge luggage buying a separate seat for your suitcase or backpack is a good idea. Do not expect there is a roomy luggage compartment in a van - there is actually none and your fellow passengers are unlikely to appreciate your luggage stuck under their feet, alas.
