Can you drive from Phuket to Koh Samui in Thailand? Yes, and this video will show you how.
It's a half day of travel, or you could make a whole day of it and make stops along the way. We will show you an epic spot on Phang Nga Bay that you could detour to. We will ride the Seatran Ferry from Donsak to Samui and show you the entire process. There's some Thai Food, the Phuket Bridge, a coffee shop worth checking out, and more. All on this road trip....the cheapest way to get from Phuket to Koh Samui. This Channel is your Thailand Travel Guide.

Whenever I take a short-term trip abroad, I choose the fastest way because I don’t want to waste time, however as I see Chris using many kinds of transportation and enjoy feeling local atmosphere, I want to try “the cheapest way” next time😍🇹🇭💕

Hey Chris, I'm making my 4th trip, in less than 2-1/2 years, to Thailand in less than a week! My Thai wife and I plan to drive her car from Patong to Donsak on 3/29/23. Then ferry it over to Koh Samui. On 4/3/23, we plan to ferry everything to Koh Phangan (Full Moon Party!). Then, on 4/7/23, we'll ferry from Koh Phangan to Donsak, then drive to Patong. This video answered all of the questions I had regarding the drive from Patong to Donsak. Thanks!

@jamesmancusi6747 2 года назад

The old section of the bridge you were on in Phuket has a history - it's aka "The Lover's Bridge". The story goes - rich young girl, poor young man fall in love yet, her family forbids it. Next thing you know - the two tie themselves together, and jump into the water to be together for eternity. Also - the pier on Samui is called the Nathon Pier. Been looking for airline tickets lately - we'll be back soon!

@ikkue 2 года назад

Nice video as always! A tip for a proper pronunciation of the Phang Nga Province, while the "ng" at the end of "Phang" is still stuck in your throat, add a long "aaa" at the end. You can use this trick with other Thai words that starts with "Ng" as well, just imagine an imaginary word in your head which ends with "ng" and get that "ng" stuck in your throat and start the word with that

Hi Chris if you happen to drive back to Phuket, may be considered drive to a different way back to Phuket and stop by at beach town call Khao Lak. They are popular for surfing for beginners, the beach call Memories beach, the vibes is different from others beach in Thailand. Khao Lak town itself very beautiful and plenty of budget & Luxury hotel. I love my hometown hope everyone can see it .

@paulrogers6866 2 года назад

Epic video Chris, the quality of the shooting and editing is just getting better and better. It seemed like a long day but a flight via bkk would have probably ly ended up pretty similar. Great to see Khun Eeng busy again, long may it last.
