Traveler reviews
Scam
I advise you not to leave with Green planet they scam you with money on the spot, they forced us to sit and drink in an unhealthy cafe then charged us 640 bath taxi from the port to our hotel while on bolt the taxi was 90 bath for 4, when I told them they yelled at me and wouldn't argue. This is a family business the husband leaves you no choice but to go to his wife's cafe and get you a taxi. They scream and make sure you don't have time to look and compare prices. Tip: take your tickets on 12GB once there show your tickets and especially refuse any taxi that will be taken to drop you off at your hotel you will pay double or triple.
Rude and Arrogant
The skipper is only interested in taking your money not offering a service. He sold me a ticket from Phuket to Krabi 1200 baht and then lead me to his wife’s cafe which was dirty and as I made my way next door to the nicer cafe he shouts at me to sit down. I said no and continued, next his wife starts shouting at me to sit down. He didn’t explain that they take you to your hotel on arrival to Krabi. So I had wasted 500 baht on a taxi. I do not recommend
Long story short, waste of money.
If you’re debating on this vs taking the ferry, just save your money and take the ferry. They picked us up on time at our hotel at noon and dropped us at the pier shortly after 1pm. The actual “speed” boat didn’t leave until 3 pm so we sat in a cafe that charged triple what we paid for everything in Phuket for two hours. The actual boat itself is a hotbox with almost no airflow, even when moving. It is shaded, but be prepared to sweat and then share that sweat with your neighbors. There is no view. You’re packed in like sardines. They ask for the same information multiple times and then wait, in the heat, with no airflow, to ask every person which hotel they’re going to, despite giving that information at booking and again via WhatsApp twice.
Green Planet team for...
Green Planet team for very courteous. Although we were charged 10 Baht each for entry to Bang Rong Pier which was not expected.
Speedboat transfer
Very organised. Seamless service through to Krabi with onward longboat as well to Railey Definitely recommend Great alternative to flight.
