The ride was choppy and jarring at times. I could see people with back problems struggling. The entire trip was about two hours. The boat company had good communication. The pier is easy to navigate. Bring money for a smoothly or snack at the pier while you wait.

Thanks for mentioning the sights along the way - that's definitely a highlight! We'd love to welcome you back again soon.

Don’t use! 1,5 hour trip took 2,5!!

Fadi_N, Mar 2024

Spare yourself the money, sweat and bad experience and take a big boat. This is by no means a speedboat. Ended up taking almost the same time from Phuket to Koh Lanta as using a ferry. They overload the boat with passengers so you’re basically cramped for 2,5 hours. Greedy business! Viator as well a, is greedy business. Because of the above stated I made a request for a refund. I was told that they would not provide any refund with no explanation why. This is outrageous, I was not provided the service I paid for. A 10 min delay is OK but 1 hour, 67%, is not! Will stop using Viator.

Chaos at Koh Lanta pier.

Kevin_B, Feb 2024

The pier for loading is undersized for the number of boats that board passengers do there. This leads to complete chaos for passengers, which is made worse by an absence of signage and insufficient staff to communicate to passengers. This no doubt makes the job of the workers much more difficult than it has to be. Communication at the post departure stops was also less than satisfactory or not existent.

Response from Host, Mar 2024

Dear Kevin_B Thank you for your feedback. We apologize for the chaos you experienced at the pier and during post-departure information sharing. We are actively addressing these issues, including improving signage, staffing, and communication procedures. We value your insights and strive to continuously improve your experience.

Efficient way to get to Koh Lanta

Highly recommended.

Robert_K, Jan 2023

Great service, very freindly and professional ground staff and crew, comfortable modern boats, very fast.

Response from Host, Jan 2023

Dear Robert_K Thanks for your quick review. Please consider to book also our other transfer services in the whole Andaman Sea.

Fast and easy, by calm sea

CHRISTIAN_B, Jan 2023

It was well organized, but when you take boat for first time in Phuket it is not clear how it works and where you must check-in. On the other hand all local people working there are answering ur questions with patience and are friendly! It helps u put order into what seems very chaotic check-in and onboarding!

Response from Host, Jan 2023

Dear CHRISTIAN_B Thanks for joining our speedboat transfer to Lanta. I am wondering what exactly is not clear about the check-in process. We always inform guests about meeting point and meeting time, or if have hotel pickup incuded with instructions about the exact pickup point.

A quick, easy way to get there.

Dario_S, Jun 2022

Check-in and arrival all went well. The boat was comfortable and the ride over was smooth. There was plenty of room on board but mostly because it was off season.

Schöne Überfahrt

Marcel_Z, Apr 2024

Pünktlich und angenehme Überfahrt nach Koh Lanta. Viel Platz und Gepäck werden von den Angestellten auf Schiff gebracht.

AnnaGustafsson, Mar 2023

Många gånger i Thailand men första gången med speedboat,inte alls otäckt som jag trodde. Lite skumpigt i mellanåt men en kul resa över havet.

Du gearede fint, intet at klage over

Nina_S, Dec 2022

Det fungerede fint, der er intet at klage over. Lidt mange i båden, så man skulle skynde sig at finde en plads, hvis man ikke ville stå op under hele turen

Response from Host, Dec 2022

Dear Nina_S Thanks for your message, we are happy that you booked with us and could enjoy the ride even during the end monsoon season.
