During my change over at Krabi to koh lanta , the men tried to take advantage of me with taxi prices to my hotel Driver was driving like a complete lunatic

We drove with two different buses, from the pier we drove with a super comfortable big bus to krabi and from there we drove with a minivan to koh lanta. And there were to many people in the bus more people than places.

Van

Vans are a great alternative - or, in many cases - your only option - if you need to travel overland within one and the same province or neighbouring provinces or states. Vans ply the roads between Koh Samui and Koh Lanta, too.

Things to remember: When travelling by van with huge luggage buying a separate seat for your suitcase or backpack is a good idea. Do not expect there is a roomy luggage compartment in a van - there is actually none and your fellow passengers are unlikely to appreciate your luggage stuck under their feet, alas.
