Surat Thani Airport to Koh Samui Destination Reviews

MH
Great service. Many employees available at the airport to help, and they also helped arrange a van transfer to our hotel from Na Thon pier, which saved quite a bit of money. Recommended.

Airplane was late, shuttle left early. Had to pay double price to get to ferry on phantip late shuttle

Overall it was fine, but the ferry had a big delay and the driver on the transfer to the hotel in Samui was very slow.

Shuttle to the ferry was at the wrong pier, extra grab was necessary for getting the ferry just in time

All ok. On time and comfortable. We were able to get on an earlier bus as there was free capacity and the lady at the counter offered (without me asking). Well done

Easy pickup, great ride. We got there hasslefree. But as i write in every review with Thai Transportation: times and schedule vary a little bit . Also here, took us a little longer than scheduled. Thus i can totally recommend!

We were late to the airport, but the staff were kind and helped us there with the vouchers. Information about time at the ferry terminal could have been better. We almost missed the ferry.

I landed and there was plenty of help at the airport to find the shuttle van. The van was full but seating was tight. Still got to the destination on time. I would do it again if needed.

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 Surat Thani Airport and Koh Samui, too.

Things to remember: When travelling by van with huge luggage buying a separate seat for your suitcase or backpack is a good idea.
