Travel tips for this route

  1. At about 947 km the drive takes around 12–15 hours including rest stops, so leave Bangkok before dawn or split the trip over two days if you want to arrive before dark.
  2. On long weekends, Songkran and New Year the roads are busy and vans book out early; book ahead and allow at least 1–2 extra hours.
  3. On the island you walk or take local motorbike taxis with sidecars, paid separately.
  4. The Tarutao National Park area charges an entry fee, separate from the van fare.
  5. In the monsoon (about May to October) the Andaman Sea is rough and some boat routes stop; check before you travel.
  6. Check the first and last boat times; if you want the van to collect you, give the boat time when booking.
