About this tour
When Ben from our team booked this charter from Lanta to Krabi Airport, Krabi Town, or Aonang, we found a straightforward door-to-door service that handles the logistics without fuss. You're collected in an air-conditioned minivan with a professional driver who knows the route—no surprises, no haggling at the pier. It's the kind of transfer that works best if you've got luggage, kids in tow, or just want to skip the song-and-dance of public minibuses and ferries. The ride covers ground between the islands and mainland, and the outfit throws in child seats for little ones aged 2–4.
Highlights
- Air-conditioned minivan beats cramped shared songthaews on hot days
- Professional driver handles the ferry crossing, not you
- Free child seats for toddlers aged 2–4 years
- Wheelchair-accessible vehicle and specialised infant seats available
- Fixed pricing takes the negotiation out of transfers
- Safety equipment included as standard in the car
- Works for all fitness levels; no walking required
What to expect
The driver collects you from your Lanta accommodation and heads to the ferry pier. You're not herding yourself and bags through the chaos—they sort the crossing. Once on the mainland, it's a smooth drive to the airport, town, or beach. The whole thing runs on schedule, no detours or time-wasting.
Ben noted the minivan stays cool even in afternoon heat, and the professional crew doesn't rush you or push extras. If you're travelling with a pram or wheelchair, they've thought that through. The only wrinkle: if you're heading out between 22:00 and 06:00, there's a flat 1500 THB surcharge for the private car ferry (standard across Lanta operators). Otherwise, the fare is fixed and transparent.

Good to know
This beats DIY ferry-hunting if you've got luggage, kids, or simply want a guaranteed seat and door-to-door peace of mind. Families appreciate the child seats and stroller-friendly setup. Travellers with mobility needs will find it genuinely accessible.
Night crossings (22:00–06:00) add 1500 THB to your bill—that stings if you've got an early flight. The service is one-way transport, not a guided tour, so you're not learning the area. If you're budget-backpacking and solo, shared minibuses might be cheaper, though less comfortable. Bring small change for any extras (ferry add-ons are 60 THB per person over the base rate). Peak season can mean longer waits at the pier, though your driver handles it. Works best for groups of 2+ or anyone with baggage.
