On the day of my trip, the ferry broke down, but I was very well organized to deal with the problem. I was accompanied to a speedboat which left within a minute.

Le jour de mon trajet le ferry était en panne mais très bonne organisation pour gérer le problème. J’ai été accompagné jusqu’à un speedboat qui partait dans la minute.
Overall trip was ok but they advise you to come 30 minutes before departure. At the end noone came at correct time. We departure late from original time 30 minutes later. So overall we waited 1h

There was confusion at the ticket counter when I showed her a copy of the email I got confirming. Another woman in the office helped to explain it. When we got to Koh Samet Pier we were quite confused. The description of the boat ride said it was 40 minutes and it only took 10 minutes. It took me quite a while to accept that we were on the right boat at the right pier. I don’t understand how everyone isn’t confused by that when they arrive.
No problems at all, service good. Getting on and off was a bit tricky especially for the more elderly so a member of staff should be there to help. I helped many people on myself.
I've bought the ticket for fast bout at 8. The lady at the "reception" told me "it leaves at 8.30": what?? Ticket for 8 o clock and she says at 8.30? Why?? Then, we left at 8.50... bad! 50 minutes late!
