I went to Krabi with my friends and lil sister last month
I would like to give some advices to those who plan to go there for vacation to avoid being scam/wasting time
Actually i purposely post this for my dear Alex Yap since he requested!
1# Transportation
Air Ticket:
My friend bought the air ticket for us when air asia having air promotion
So, it costs RM 189 per person (Two-way)
Airport-->Hotel:
DO NOT WORRY!!
Whenever you've reached there
They will be lots of agent/taxi driver standing out there and asking:
"Nak pergi mana?"="Going anywhere?"
For safety, so we go for agent service
We took a private van costs RM60
4 of us going so each person RM15
Tut-tut:
You can take tut-tut costs RM2 to travel around the town
2# Hotel Booking
We booked our hotel through AGODA
I think this website is quite reliable, easy and fast!
After your payment then they will straight away send you a voucher
You must print it out and show it to the receptionist
We booked Buri Tara Resort for the first 2 night
since we saw many good reviews from the website
RM116 for each person for staying 2 nights (without breakfast)
Have a look with the hotel!
Price:★★★☆☆
Location:★★★☆☆
Hospitality:★★★★☆
Wifi Connection: ★★☆☆☆
Overall: ★★★☆☆
P.S. : Wifi can only be accessed in their Lobby
(Remember to apply mosquito repellent whenever you stay at Lobby)
The second hotel will be Palm Paradise Resort
It costs RM125 per person for 2 nights (Included breakfast)
I love their bathroom design which is cover with all white tiles
everything in white looks so elegant
BUT
It's hot like sauna!!
It seems so hot whenever you enter the resort
Their lobby is freaking hot because they didn't turn on their fan (maybe they want to save $)
Their swimming pool is freaking warm
Their room is quite warm
Price:★★★☆☆
Location:★☆☆☆☆
Hospitality:★★★☆☆
Wifi Connection: ★★☆☆☆
Overall: ★★★☆☆
P.S: You can connect to their Wifi in your room but have limitation!
3# Tour Package
Please please please not to ask your driver (Airport--->Hotel) to bring you ask for tour package
because they will bring you to their company
and not to book it online because you can find many cheap tour package in the town
SO we get the expensive package
RM400 per person for 3 days tour which included:
Day 1: Ao Nang Beach+Hong Island+Kayaking
Day 2: Jungle Tour( Hot spring+ Emerald Pool)+Tiger Cave
Day 3: 4 islands with long tail boat
+
Private Van from hotel to Airport
+
Private van to Krabi Town
I think we can get all these around RM250++ if we went to town to survey
PLEASE REMEMBER TO BARGAIN!!
Day 1 Tour(Ao Nang Beach+Hong Island+Kayaking)
We quite enjoy kayaking because we get to kayak around Ao nang island
Day 2 Tour
Jungle Tour( Hot spring+ Emerald Pool)+Tiger Cave
Emerald Pool:
Tiger Cave:
OH YES! We did it in 30 minutes for up & down!
Hot spring:
Day 3 Tour (4 islands with long tail boat)
Highly recommend that you must take this tour!
Please apply sun block as frequent as you can because the sun shines like no mercy! T^T
4# Dine-in Restaurant
A place that you must go
and of course is a MUST!
You can make your reservations through online
They will reply your email within 24 hours
I think it's quite efficient !
They will sent you a tut-tut and bring you there and fetch you back
Isn't it provide excellent service?
Furthermore, they got the BEST WIFI CONNECTION in whole Krabi? (Perhaps)
Why you must dine-in here?
Because you can enjoy breath-taking sunset view while you enjoying your dinner
I love their food too!
You can enjoy Lobster there too!
Total bill is around RM400++
RM100+ per person
Soooo If you have more questions, please do not hesitate to leave me a message!
I will try my best to answer your questions!
Lastly a big thanks to Desmond Chee and Krayz lee for providing photos!
HAVE FUN PEEEPO!
