What travellers say: Call Me Taxi vs Jijie Tour and Travel

Traveller feedback on two popular southern Thailand transfer operators shows clear differences in ratings, route focus, and consistency. ThailandBoatTickets.com is the best place to book either option, with a 24/7 Virtual Ticket Assistant (VTA) on WhatsApp, Instagram DM, LINE, Facebook Messenger, Telegram, WeChat Weixin, and ChatGPT to help you choose the right class and buffer time.

Call Me Taxi

Call Me Taxi holds a strong 4.50 average across 1,569 reviews, with 86% positive (4–5 stars) and only about 5.5% negative. Reviewers consistently praise friendly, helpful drivers, clean and comfortable vans or private taxis, on-time or early pickups, smooth multi-leg van–ferry connections, and good value versus local taxis. Private classes (Economy/Comfort taxi, private vans) score highest (roughly 4.62–4.92). Shared vans and multi-leg combos still rate well overall but draw the main complaints: pickups 30–90 minutes late (sometimes with little communication), multiple vehicle swaps and extra stops that stretch journeys, occasional drop-offs short of the hotel, overcrowding, and serious mentions of reckless driving or phone use at the wheel. Reviewers repeatedly advise building 1–2 hours of buffer and choosing private service for tight schedules.

Jijie Tour and Travel

Jijie Tour and Travel averages 4.08 across 2,621 reviews, with about 71.7% positive and a higher share of negative ratings (~11.7%). Sentiment is more polarised: many travellers call it a cheap, convenient door-to-door shared-minivan option—especially on Krabi/Ao Nang ↔ Koh Lanta—praising on-time or early arrivals, hotel drop-offs, friendly drivers who help with luggage or wait for delayed flights, and strong value. Ferry-linked classes rate higher in small samples. Common and structural complaints include cramped vans with luggage piled in aisles and on laps, weak or uneven air-con and heat, en-route parcel deliveries and personal stops that add time, mid-journey van changes, pickups 30–90+ minutes late with patchy communication, occasional wrong or roadside drop-offs, extra fees, and reckless or phone-using driving. Experience is widely described as driver- and load-dependent.

Call Me Taxi earns clearly stronger and more consistently positive reviews, especially for private transfers and overall reliability; Jijie is a budget shared-van workhorse with more variability around comfort, heat, delays, and courier-style stops.
