Thanks Jeroen! Always good seeing you. This is a great alternative to driving between Bangkok and Samui.

[@ianjunitedk]

Your channel is really very interesting mate, I think you cover what's going on and what's available in Bangkok better than anybody else. Yeah seriously, because your channel is more broadly aligned and not only concerned with lets say nightlife activities. Keep it up dude !

[@ianjunitedk]

I wish I could get the same subscriber numbers as you got!!!!:)

[@internationalist195]

Great option. With enough time, I'd take it over the plane without thinking. A relaxing adventure; meeting people on the boat; have dinner and drinks. Compared to the stess of an airport and an instantly forgettable flight. You will always remember an interesting ferry ride. Life is about the adventure and the memories?

[@nowgettheretravel6877]

Nice option to get to Koh Samui. Bangkok Airways has a monopoly on flying to Koh Samui so they are the most expensive airefares in Thailand to get to Koh Samui.

[@ulrichkristensen4087]

Yes monopolies should be illegal, let the competition drive the prize

[@stephs1476]

Wow this sounds fun! We are already coming this summer but will save this for another time when it isn’t rainy season :)

[@gaengphedg5474]

Very interesting option indeed Jeroen! But not for this summer, perhaps 2026. Relaxing on deck, nice music and a sunset towards Samui is something you don't have on an airplane. By the way...prices of getting there by air are also getting more and more expensive.

[@_Alfa.Bravo_]

Awesome drone shots man !!!!! Thanks

[@ulrichkristensen4087]

Would try it for fun, just to see the view sailing out the Chao Praya river

[@kashifakbar8751]

Thanks for showing us around Jeroen 😃👍🏼

[@edmo43]

Thank you friend Jeroen for sharing your new vlog. It is another alternative that complements the vacation in that beautiful country of Thai. I like to travel by Ferries, I go to the Dominican Republic with some frequency. 😉🏅 Have a nice weekend.👍

[@user-pr8it2fv5n]

Super Thai, super ship, super video. Thank you very much.

[@Dutch-K9-Unit]

Zeker een hele mooie optie neem een mooie vrouw mee en doorrrrr😝🤩 , weer top video !!!

[@sunnyburnsactor]

Really good video !!

[@johnsimms9015]

10 hours by car to the ferry terminal to Samui, 1 hour flight for B5,000, or the ferry for a 22 hour ride. Not sure I would take the slow boat from Bangkok but good coverage so that viewers can see the option.

[@globaltravelmate]

This is perfect for people who want to bring their car to and from Samui. And dont want to drive all the way to Surat Thani.

[@samp9953]

Bellissima proposta ma la trovo costosa

[@ScepticFrog]

More like 12000baht flight return each person. I think the Ferry is a great alternative and cheaper

[@jumustube]

@@ScepticFrog12,000 baht ? You mean 1,200 baht ?

[@ScepticFrog]

@@jumustube flight.... go Bangkok Airways and check...prove me wrong....

[@jim.pearsall]

Amazing!

[@riverth7301]

Wow😀

[@aislt8786]

Many people in the comment section are comparing the price of the flights versus the ferry. Sorry there is really no basis for comparison. Please stop comparing. The target passengers of the ferry are people who want to take their cars or bikes to and fro. It may be far cheaper, but the drive between Suratthani and the outskirts of Bangkok, not including the ferry between Donsak and Samui takes around 8 hours without rest break. By the way, has anyone been on Samui or Donsak and try to the book the Seatran or Raja ferry in the recent months? Have you waited in the queue for 5 hours without any hope of ever boarding the ferry? Have you been stuck on Rama II for 3 hours? I think the stress and time is well worth THB12500 or more. And the ferry allows pets which is a huge plus.

[@gertdrok9016]

Thats Interesting to know. 🙏

[@simong7539]

Don't think Bangkok Airways will be getting worried anytime soon.

[@globaltravelmate]

This is a car ferry. Different crowd then the ones going with the plane.

[@scottDchicago]

Greetings from Chicago! We’re traveling to this island in July.

[@acewongsawad6910]

I think that suite in the back of the boat for families with pets have the artificial turf for them to go do their potty while on the boat, kind of like a dog run area, which is kind of cool I guess so they can get some fresh air. But, pretty cool review GTM, thanks!!

[@mrmartin2079]

it’s about 18000 for the pet friendly suite tho ☹️

[@user-oj2xh8pn2o]

It is a good option if you want to bring your car to Samui. In stead of driving, you can sleep. And next morning you are in Samui. Do they have Wi-Fi on the boat?

[@eric209]

Nice video.

[@KillerkoUK]

balcony suit seems like a great deal if I can find 11 more people to travel with me.. even tho not sure how many of us would manage to get a bed haha :D

[@chittaponklinnak8556]

wow i like

[@udaypawar4101]

Nice info

[@oasis7647]

สุดยอดเลยครับ

[@exalhoa]

Interesting option for sure. I was hoping for a look at the engine room, that's where I worked during my stint in the USN.

[@staciaohira]

wow thank you

[@Andy_sabin]

Ideal for the comfortably of retirees with time to spare.

[@jackvanstrien]

In Thailand?A DJ and live music?The decibels will make you jump overboard!

[@harrypalmer1]

Interesting Jeroen. Unfortunately, I will have blown my entire holiday budget getting to Samui. Do you know if the fast boat from Pattaya to Khao Takiap/Hua Hin will ever get reinstated? I never went on it, but sounded interesting also.

[@klausw.5612]

That’s a great idea, unfortunately no landing site for my helicopter 😂😂, I think it’s a very good idea to do this trip by ship, enjoying the sunset on the way to Samui✌🏼🤘🏼😊🇹🇭🍺☀️

[@phuketexplorer]

Way overpriced, compared with a 1 hour flight. But I suppose it'll be useful for those wanting to take their car from Bangkok. I don't see the service lasting for long!

[@jprofiler]

thx, i flight for less then 2000thb

[@andersfant4997]

If you live in Bangkok and want to bring a car on a holiday there are better options, Koh Chang perhaps. This looks more suited for a ferry-geek, I know a few🙂. That said, very informative video.

[@mrmartin2079]

This is not for people who want to bring a car on holiday 😂 - it’s for people who want to bring their car To Koh Samui - and avoid the very long drive/ ferry

[@andersfant4997]

​@@mrmartin2079 So you mean its for inhabitans of Samui, who bought a car in Bangkok and want to ship it back to the island..🙈. Of course its holiday traffic, the Company wants (probably without success, since the ferry takes a loong time) to be an attractive holiday option for Bangkokian holidaymakers who like to travel around by car. Cheers.

[@aislt8786]

​@@andersfant4997 eerrr yes that would me. Buying cars and furniture from Bangkok and driving it back Samui. I do it 3 -4 times a year.

[@tuxithai1532]

And Beer from Quingdao, the only one German colony in China, and the First what German's erected was a brewery. Tsingtao

[@reinhardeder5533]

The fare with Deluxe Rooms seems about equal to the flight with Bangkok Airways. I paid 5.300 baht per person for a single trip.I think choosig the Ferry is a good option.I will keep that in mind.

[@user-mv1wl4uk3f]

hi,How long does the trip last please?

[@johnjwhitbread]

It would be nice if you could add a comment or video shot of accessible features for wheelchairs. I saw a wheelchair symbol on the boat. Curious about the accommodation. The multi level deck doesn't look accessible. It's not fun to pay the same as everyone else and then get a compromised experience. People with disabilities will recognize accessible features so you don't have to say much.

[@worldestateconsulting4263]

Thank you to show us this option. Unfortunately I think that the prices are absolutridiculous for an old refurbished boat. Not exactly a luxurious boat😅

[@kevinp8108]

When are they bringing back the ferry between Hua Hin and Pattaya?

[@Iceyfire12]

When they develop Pattaya and create a demand!

[@user-ew1vz2nd2m]

So good experience

[@ScepticFrog]

The flights are a rip off. I really like this, just add on a couple of days to your holiday.

[@toke182]

a shame the pricing makes it a dumb option

[@harrymcfadden2572]

Not if you bring your car or go at the spur of the moment when flight prices are high.

[@theSunKing142]

@@harrymcfadden2572- well Koh Samui is such a small island why should u bring ur car? u better rent a motorbike instead.

[@luckydormand8796]

@@theSunKing142depends on the situation if your by yourself or with only one other person renting a motorbike makes sense but I think the ferry service is going to be used mostly by Thai families that want to bring their car with them

[@jefftanasse6958]

Two trips per month ??

[@bazzer621]

12,500 for a deluxe room WITHOUT a private bathroom? No way Hosay

[@janthomsen2657]

Balcony Suite for 12 Persons? Are you sure?

[@globaltravelmate]

Must have wrote it wrong :-)

[@phuketexplorer]

I was going to ask the same thing! 😄

[@user-yb4ei2xg6g]

What time at you upload video Jeroen?

[@brandonthailand2062]

How does that suite hold 12 people?

[@phuketexplorer]

On the huge balcony! 😄

[@lmarcus8697]

Do you have to take a cabin or can you sleep on the deck?

[@globaltravelmate]

You need to take a cabin or capsule.

[@kevinp8108]

You can sleep inside the life boats.

[@timwalker2458]

I dont get the point of that unless you like being on a boat. Only people with cars travelling would be expats. Holiday makerd would rent a car on the island or fly to Surat and rent a car there. The worst thing for me is they have no idea how to use the outside space on the ship.

[@Iceyfire12]

Well of course it’s mainly for people who have time and like or don’t mind being on a ferry! It’s just another option! My problem is seems it’s Chinese Operated and caters towards the Chinese instead of Thais!

[@phuketexplorer]

Japanese ship, operated by Thais. What makes you think it's Chinese run?

[@247hustlerr]

Can you start mentioning if things are pet friendly

[@globaltravelmate]

There are 2 pet friendly rooms, I specifically showed it. For the rest the boat is not pet friendly yet. It might be in the process.

[@mrmartin2079]

@@globaltravelmatehopefully- I keep asking them to make space for bigger dogs ( Boxer sized etc 😊) The current pet rules are for 10kgs max ☹️ I think there is a big demand - a lot of people that want to bring a car on holiday will also have a dog

[@Gizziiusa]

Deluxe Room for 2, $345 and no bathroom. Hmmmmm, No thanks. prices are way over inflated. even the capsule for $100.

[@metaphysical4u]

Seems like a nice trip but time is money and an hour flight from Bangkok to Koh Samui for less than $100 seems like a much better deal. I think the video should have focused more on the actual trip to Koh Samui and and any sights that would be good to see during the trip.

[@globaltravelmate]

I would have focused on the trip, if I would have taken it :-)

[@travelblade2k]

There are no cannabis signs at the bar deck. Is there a place where you can smoke your joints?

[@doeverystory]

Hello 🙋🏽‍♂️

[@mh_mahmudhasan]

Wow, your videos are awesome. But, although your video is good, I am a bit disappointed with the number of views. Your video thumbnails are not perfect.

[@137dylan]

It just doesn't make sense. 12k baht for 2 people, that's 6k each. You can fly USM directly with Bangkok Air out of BKK for 4,000 each, and be there in just over an hour. So unless someone has a strict reason NOT to fly, this is just a more expensive, slower option.

[@globaltravelmate]

It's a car ferry. It is for people that live on Samui and want to bring their car to Bangkok.

[@137dylan]

@@globaltravelmate yeah I realised afterwards the primary use case is when having a car

[@user-zt7cj7my5l]

Train from Bang Sue to surrat thanni 200 baht Bus from suurat thanni Train station to donsak ferry port 450 baht including ferry crossing total cost less than 1000 baht Why would you pay 12500 baht

[@Kevbap]

Sorry but I fail to see any attraction by going this way, at best it is a total rip off, a bit like the island itself.

[@Bob-hd8dy]

Overpriced and not worth it. Flights and renting bike/car locally are much better

[@michaelthegreat44]

Lets hope this lasts longer than every other ferry service in Thailand, remember Pattaya to Koh samui, that lasted about a week

[@tehteh105]

It’s a good way to try out cruise experience. I did my first cruise this year it lasted 7 nights and I have found out that this lifestyles isn’t for me and 7 nights was far too long, I wanted to leave after 3 nights, so 22 hours is good I think.

[@miratoncar8266]

if you can fly just one hour from Bangkok to Samui for around 2000bhat that this ferry isnt looks like a good deal.

[@globaltravelmate]

Good luck finding a flight to Koh Samui for 2,000 THB. But the main attraction of this boat is that people can ship their car.

[@miratoncar8266]

@@globaltravelmate I am sorry, you maybe don't understand my point...I always like your videos and I again like this video from you just what I want say.... it's really not a good deal. In advance easy to have fly ticket around £50 with just a hour to fly from Bangkok to Koh samui....and you point.... not many tourists taking car to Samui.. .. it's a island and lots of tourists coming here for holiday, no need a car..... that's my point. Stay in ferry for one day and pay prices like have Carribbean ferry for week... it's a expensive. Again, fly ticket in advance just around £50 so, 2000bhat....no need luck 😏

[@globaltravelmate]

@@miratoncar8266 I understand your point as well. I am informing people what kind of transport there is. And this is an option for people who want to bring their car or motorcycle to koh Samui. I never said it was cheap.
