Getting Around
Travel around the island is difficult and expensive. A taxi ride to your bungalow or resort should be included as part of any boat ticket Ko Kut. But the local drivers are prettty much a law unto themselves, and might ask as much as 400B for a 5km journey. Considering you could take a 12hr bus ride from Bangkok to Chiang Mai for less, politely refuse and they'll probably end up taking you for free anyway.
Motorbike rentals are possible, but it's expensive at 400B a day. Drive carefully as the roads are very hilly and windy and there's just enough space for a songthaew to pass a bike without someone ending up in the ditch. Parts of the road south of Khlong Chao are unmade and should only be attempted by experienced riders.
