The AC wasn't working at first but the staff (who were very nice) stopped the bus a few times and brought a technician to fix it. The rest of the rode was pretty smooth, with a 30min stop for food. The AC is very strong, so bring something to cover up. They also bring you a blanket, juice box and bread. We didn't encounter too much traffic, yet arrived to phuket 3.5 hours later than planned, so bear that in mind. Overall, for the cost of it, it was worth it.

We arrived 3 hours late in Phuket. No information in english about anything. The bus did almost 20 stops for only one or two thai people to get out during the trip (but you gave to stay in the bus), it was not indicated in trip information. Toilets are extremely small and quite dirty, almost unusable. Only one stop of 20min for more than 15 hours bus trip. Free lunch around 1pm in local restaurant

Air con only really worth it if your in window seats. Sit at the top behind the stairs or right at the back for best seats. Pre book of your travelling with someone/group to make sure you get seats you want. Drinks provided along the journey as well as the start, also a blanket for sleeping

One of the most comfortable bus rides I have had. However bus arrived about 10 mins late and arrived at destination almost three hours after the estimated arrival time. Operators should update their ETA. We didn’t even encounter issues or traffic along the way yet the ETA was way off.
