PoorSucker Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 Only company that makes the Chumpon - Samui route (via koh Tao, Koh Phanghan) is lomprayah. No they don't take on motorbikes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cornishcarlos Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 Its a nice ride from Chumphon to Donsak anyway, even on a Wave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uksomchai Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 As said, it is a nice ride down to Donsak. Just stick to a comfortable speed and plenty of stops and it is no sweat. It is also well sign posted as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good idea if going to live there but its just for a few days so looks like bus and then rent when in Samui Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PattayaPhom Posted August 13, 2015 Author Share Posted August 13, 2015 Thanks for the quick replies....shame they don't have a ferry as for me Surat is just too far, so be car or bus and then rental In Samui... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basil B Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 Travel with your bike by train? Still a long haul from Surat's train station to the piers 60Km as the crow flys, probably more like 70-80Km and two hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Basil, thats a great idea, will check that out later. 70km is OK, just dont fancy 600-700 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cornishcarlos Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 If you rode from BKK then you have done it the wrong way... Next time, if there is a next time, train to Chumphon and then ride the rest... Much better roads heading down from Chumphon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
