What travellers say about Nara Travel

Based on 80+ traveller reviews · 4.2 / 5 average rating

Overall sentiment

Overall sentiment toward Nara Travel is positive, with an average rating of 4.24/5 across 82 reviews. A strong 76.8% of reviews were positive (4–5 stars), including 61% awarding the top score, while negatives accounted for 13.4% and middling reviews 9.8%. Ferry + Bus and Bus + Ferry combinations rate particularly well at 4.30 and 4.40 respectively.

What people praise

Travellers most frequently praise the comfortable main bus leg, describing it as spacious with reclining seats, USB-C outlets and blankets. Free meals and snacks (often including dinner or watermelon in Surat Thani) stand out as a genuine perk. Helpful and friendly drivers receive consistent mention, along with efficient connections where the onward bus waits on ferry arrival and on-time or early arrivals. One standout case highlighted exceptional customer service involving proactive rebooking and refunds.

Common complaints

The most common complaints centre on transfers and routing: too many stops that turn journeys long, chaotic multi-leg sequences involving shuttles and minivans, wrong or distant drop-off points, and occasional surprise upcharges on minivan legs. Minivans themselves are often described as cramped and hot, while some reviewers note boarding-point confusion or amenities (such as air conditioning) not matching expectations.

Practical tips

Expect a multi-leg journey rather than a single direct ride and build in buffer time for extra stops. The big bus is the comfortable highlight, so prepare for potentially less pleasant minivan segments; bring warm clothing as buses can run cold. Locate the meeting point in advance using maps, confirm your exact drop-off with the driver, and avoid paying unadvertised extras. A free meal is usually included.

Operational Hubs

Nara Travel primarily operates from key coastal provinces including Phuket, Krabi, and Surat Thani, connecting popular islands such as Koh Phi Phi, Koh Samui, Koh Phangan, and Koh Tao. Main piers include Rassada Pier in Phuket, Klong Jilad Pier in Krabi, and Na Thon Pier on Koh Samui.
