We caught a minibus from the travel agent and it was a 30 minute ride to the ferry terminal where we boarder the ferry back to Surat Thani. The ferry trip was long (3 hours) but easy and when we got to Surat Thani we were then ushered into the back of one of the "minibuses" (more of a pickup with bench seats in the back and a roof over where you sit). Another crazy bit of driving took us to the where the coach would come to pick us up. It was about 5pm and the coach was due at 7pm which gave us time for some food and to watch another movie!
The coach arrived (just as the film was ending - good timing) and we got on. It was pretty comfortable, as good as you would get in NZ or UK, if not better. Double decker, toilet, air con and reclining seats.
The journey was long but we both slept through most of it (Lianne had a monster sleep of almost 8 hours!).
The coach was a little ahead of schedule and arrived in central Bangkok at around 5am. We woke from our sleep and dozily grabbed our bags and wandered off in search of somewhere to sleep...
