Surat Thani to Phuket Destination Reviews

EG
The mini van was on time and the air con was good, the van did stop off a few times on the way to drop off / pick up passengers / parcels however we still arrived in Phuket on time.

Van was comfortable, had charging ports and air conditioning. Driver was nice but kept yelling at us no smoking even though no one was smoking. He drove very fast and made everyone uncomfortable and a little car sick. We arrived 15 minutes earlier than advertised. Good value for money. I wish they let my group go on first as we were four people and everyone else was singles so we were all split up which was a big annoying
