Ban Phe To Bangkok On The Minivan

[Longbow212]

Went to Koh Samed for the long weekend. Getting there was no problem, 200bht on the minivan from victory monument BTS stop.

However, getting back to Bangkok....quite a bit of grief. I speak basic Thai and asked around for where I could get the van from, no one seemed to be able tl direct me. One woman gave me a phone number of the van company but the number was not working. I walked around by the new government pier and the private pier area opposite the bus station. I ended up getting the bus with cherdchai which departed 1hr late then crawled all the way to Bangkok.

Can anyone tell me where to get theminivan from?

Down by the side of the 7-11 opposite the pier, where all the tour operaters are.

When the van dropped you off ...

why did you not ask driver where you can

catch a ride back?

opposite the pier there is a bar called Christies, in the soi next to Christies is where all the minivans park.
