Wangsai Speedboat vs Baan Pun Travel

Only Wangsai Speedboat has published review data in the available information, and it scores very strongly.

• Wangsai Speedboat: 4.74 / 5 from 57 reviews, with 96.5% positive (4–5 stars). Ratings stay consistent across Ferry Standard (4.76) and Ferry Speedboat (4.71). Travellers repeatedly praise punctuality, efficient crossings, friendly crew, and smooth transfers.
• Baan Pun Travel: Rating and review count are currently n/a, so there is no comparable public scorecard yet.

The overlap is quite focused. Both Wangsai Speedboat and Baan Pun Travel serve the same two direct crossings between the same piers:

• Koh Phi Phi → Railay
• Railay → Koh Phi Phi

They also share service presence in the Ao Nang, Koh Phi Phi, and Railay area more broadly, but the only fully duplicated point-to-point boat routes listed are the Phi Phi–Railay pair. For everything else you will need to pick the operator that actually lists that sector.

Check both side by side on ThailandBoatTickets.com so you can see departure times and vehicle types for these shared legs before you decide.

Baan Pun Travel has a far wider network. While Wangsai Speedboat concentrates on the classic Krabi–Phi Phi–Railay corridor, Baan Pun Travel adds dozens of extra island and mainland links.

• Wangsai Speedboat only: Ao Nang ↔ Koh Phi Phi, Ao Nang → Railay, plus the shared Railay–Phi Phi routes (and an Ao Nang → Ao Nang listing).
• Baan Pun Travel only: Extensive links from Ao Nang, Phuket, Railay, Koh Lanta, Koh Lipe, Koh Jum, Koh Kradan, Koh Muk, Koh Ngai, Koh Yao Noi/Yai, Pak Bara, Hat Yai, Satun, Trang, Langkawi, Krabi and more—plus onward connections such as Koh Lipe to Surat Thani Town or Langkawi.

If your trip is limited to Ao Nang / Railay / Phi Phi, either can work. If you need multi-island hopping or southern Andaman connections, Baan Pun Travel is the broader option. Map your full itinerary on ThailandBoatTickets.com to see every available leg.

Both operators run boats and land transfers, but the menus differ in breadth.

• Wangsai Speedboat vehicle classes: Ferry, Speedboat, Van.
• Baan Pun Travel vehicle classes: Comfort 3pax, Ferry, Speedboat, Standard, Van, Van 12pax.

So both give you the core ferry/speedboat choice plus vans for hotel or pier transfers. Baan Pun Travel adds more granular van and “Comfort / Standard” options, which can help if you are a small group or want a specific transfer size. Wangsai Speedboat keeps the line-up simpler while still covering ferry, speedboat and van.

Filter by vehicle class when you search on ThailandBoatTickets.com to match the ride style you prefer.

On these classic Krabi-area runs, Wangsai Speedboat is the operator with explicit listings, while Baan Pun Travel does not appear on the same Ao Nang–Phi Phi or Ao Nang–Railay direct sectors in the data.

• Wangsai Speedboat operates Ao Nang → Koh Phi Phi, Koh Phi Phi → Ao Nang, Ao Nang → Railay, and the shared Phi Phi ↔ Railay routes. Travellers highlight on-time pick-ups, helpful crew and efficient crossings (with the usual note that speedboats can feel bumpy in rough seas).
• Baan Pun Travel is stronger if you later continue from Railay or Phi Phi toward Lanta, Lipe, Jum, Kradan or Phuket, but the pure Ao Nang–Phi Phi / Ao Nang–Railay legs are covered by Wangsai Speedboat.

Review insights for Wangsai Speedboat (the only operator with detailed feedback here) paint a clear picture of reliable short-hop service.

Key positives from the 57 reviews and keyword themes include:

• Punctuality — the most common praise; many note on-time or even early pick-ups and departures.
• Smooth, efficient experience and straightforward transfers.
• Friendly, helpful staff and crew who load luggage and keep bags dry when conditions are rough.
• Consistent high scores on both Ferry and Speedboat classes.

The main recurring caveat is that the ride can feel fast and bumpy in rough conditions—typical for Andaman speedboats. If you value a proven track record on the Ao Nang–Phi Phi–Railay triangle, Wangsai Speedboat stands out. Secure seats via ThailandBoatTickets.com for peace of mind.

For island-hopping beyond the immediate Krabi coast, Baan Pun Travel offers the broader route map.

• Baan Pun Travel connects Ao Nang, Railay and Phi Phi onward to Koh Lanta, Koh Lipe, Koh Jum, Koh Kradan, Koh Muk, Koh Ngai, Koh Yao Noi/Yai, Phuket, Pak Bara, Hat Yai, Satun, Trang, Langkawi and more, with many reverse directions also listed.
• Wangsai Speedboat stays focused on Ao Nang, Koh Phi Phi and Railay (plus the shared Phi Phi–Railay legs), so it is ideal for that core triangle but not for long multi-stop chains.

Plan a multi-leg journey on ThailandBoatTickets.com—you can mix operators where needed and ask the 24/7 Virtual Ticket Assistant for the cleanest sequence.

Yes. Both operators list Ferry and Speedboat among their vehicle classes, so you can choose a steadier ferry-style crossing or a faster speedboat on many of their respective routes.

• Wangsai Speedboat: Ferry, Speedboat, plus Van for land legs. Ratings are strong on both water classes (~4.7+).
• Baan Pun Travel: Ferry, Speedboat, plus Standard, Comfort 3pax, Van and Van 12pax for extra transfer flexibility.

Exact availability depends on the pier pair and schedule. Filter by boat type when you search on ThailandBoatTickets.com so you only see the style of ride you want.

Both can arrange vans, but Baan Pun Travel lists more transfer variants.

• Wangsai Speedboat: includes Van alongside its ferry and speedboat services—useful for hotel or pier pick-ups on its Ao Nang / Phi Phi / Railay network.
• Baan Pun Travel: offers Van, Van 12pax, Comfort 3pax and Standard, giving clearer choices for small groups, shared vans or slightly more comfortable transfers across its much larger route set.

If group size or van capacity is a deciding factor, check the specific vehicle class on each departure. ThailandBoatTickets.com lets you compare those options in one place, and our 24/7 VTA can confirm what fits your party size.
