Koh Samui to Surat Thani Town Transfer Destination Reviews

The transfer from my hotel in ko samui to nathon pier was good. When we arrived to the pier, the woman in the pier told Us that we could board on the boat at 13:00h ( and not at 14:00h as the ticket I bought) So when we arrived to Donsak pier there was no a bus waiting for Us. I undestood beacause We got on the bout one hour earlier, but the thing that I didnt understand is that the bus arrived to te bus stop when We were waiting for a while and we wanted to ask for the transfer to the driver and he didnt open the door. It was very hot outside and I was with my wife and my 6 years old son. One hour later I took a photo of the bus and then, they opened the door and two of the employees where staring and laughing of me in a bad mood. When my wife asked then the time that the bus leave they said that they didnt know and started laughing again. 39 minutes later the bus left and the got to surat thani town.

Location of where to get boat on Google maps was incorrect leading to a lot of confusion and stress. Journey was OK and bus was easy to find after for transfer.

It's easy to buy a ticket and get on the ferry. There's an air-conditioned area on the ferry and outside, and you can also buy food at the mini-store. Everything was on time, I recommend it.

Smooth crossing on the top deck only spoilt by selfish people lying over a full seat to sunbathe while others didn’t have a seat! The staff should tell them to get up!

In the transfer there Is no information available. No one tells you anything. You have to be watching where a Phantyp letter Is an ask Anyone everything all the Time.
