My experience

The white water rafting in Krabi was epic fun and tour guide made sure I had a mega time. I’m sure they will for you. On the white water rafting be prepared to get wet, soaking wet. I was drenched, but soon dried off. Also, you don’t have to use your own energy paddling the raft, your two guides will do it all for you. Easy. I also had the option to extend my 5 kilometre rafting experience to 7 kilometre, this is part of the Krabi 1 day tour package .

My other favourite part of the day was the quad biking (ATV), this was mad fun. We had four of us in the group driving through the jungle on our own quad bike. Don’t worry if you’re not confident, there’s a guide at the front and you can always jump on the back of another riders quad. You will also get a chance to get a glimpse of some elephants along your ride through the jungle.

Overall the day is mega. There isn’t many day trips in Thailand that I have experienced that fits this much fun stuff into done day.

Where to stay for the Krabi 1 day tour package

I stayed in accommodation in Ao Nang near the beach called cliff view resort. It’s treehouse style rooms, swimming pool, gym and Buffett breakfast. All for just 500 BHT, definitely one of the best and cheapest places to stay in Ao Nang. It also includes a free shuttle every hour to Ao Nang beach, this is where all Ao Nang’s best restaurants can be found.  

The amazing  Ao Nang cliff view resort  honestly it’s one of the best places in Asia I have stayed at.

Top tips and things to know about the tour package

Here is a list of things to know;

• Snacks  –  I didn’t take any snacks and I was fine, to be honest the buffet lunch keeps you filled up for the day. Although, I know some of you may get peckish so you might want to take a few snacks to last you through the day. Also, it takes around 1 hour and 30 minutes from Ao Nang to the Krabi 1 day package, so snacks would be perfect for that journey.
• Towel and change of clothes  –  Due to you get soaking wet the white water rafting you may want to take a change of clothes and a towel to dry off. I didn’t take any and I just naturally dried off, but not everyone likes sitting in wet clothes.
• Bring book and headphones  –  You may want to take some self entertainment for the journey, it’s a good chance to finish that book you’ve been reading or just listen to a few tunes.
• There’s essentials for sale  –  Don’t worry if you forget something on the day trip, there is a shop at the white water rafting centre that sells everything you need such as; wet shoes, waterproof cases, t-shirts and much more.
• Bring waterproof case  or GoPro –  You obviously need plenty of great photos from the day and definitely from the white water rafting, so make sure you bring an action camera for the day or maybe a waterproof case for your phone.

The first time I went to Krabi years ago, I have to be honest, I was disappointed. Sure the beaches are absolutely stunning and the water crystal clear, but for some reason, I just didn’t enjoy it. Coming from Koh Samet , I don’t know if it was too touristy or if I just didn’t explore well enough.

When I got home I heard people praise the area and talk about all the beautiful places they had visited. I saw so many photos on social media that just didn’t match my experience.

So I decided to do something about it. I went back to Krabi and this time I treated myself to this gorgeous hotel , one of the best places to stay in Krabi . I also spent the first three days on guided tours . And it worked. The second time around I fell in love with the towering cliffs surrounded by fields of palm trees and turquoise water.

The stubborn traveler in me has always liked to explore places on my own at my own pace. However, I’ve found recently that I get so much value from joining guided tours when I first arrive, to get the lay of the land. Then I can go back and explore more thoroughly on my own.

It’s also a great way to meet other travelers that you can spend time with during the rest of your trip. Some of the people I’ve met on guided tours over the years have become good friends.

Don’t have time to read the whole article? Here’s a list of my Krabi favorites.

10 best tours in Krabi

Written by Ryan from  WaylessTravelers

When exploring Southern Thailand, we were fascinated by the countless beautiful beaches and the options for island hopping tours. However, if you are interested in an activity that will really get your heart pumping, then definitely check out rock climbing in Railay Beach, Krabi. 

Railay is a small remote peninsula cut off from the mainland by its massive limestone cliffs. These cliffs attract rock climbers from all around the world and we were eager to experience this ourselves. 

By joining this  rock climbing tour , we were picked up from the nearby town of Ao Nang and ferried over to Railay. From there, your guide will determine your rock climbing level and pick the ideal cliff for you to climb. 

These limestone cliffs are perfect for rock climbing since their uneven formation provides an abundance of hand and foot holds. So even if you are an absolute beginner, this tour can be perfect for you! 

We took the half-day tour and at first, were presented with easier routes. Once we got the hang of it, the guide brought us to another cliff face where I went to climb up about 40 feet in the air! The guides were cheering us on as we went higher and higher.

Other than the sheer thrill of scaling these limestone walls, the cherry on top is that you get an incredible view of the surrounding landscape!

Normally I wouldn’t book a tour with Instagram in the name. But hear me out, this turned out to be one of my favorite tours I’ve ever done in Thailand.

Dew, my lovely English-speaking guide, picked me up from my hotel bright and early at 7:00 am. We got to the Emerald Pool about an hour later and had it all to ourselves for some time. It was absolutely stunning.

Then the tour continued to the Tiger Temple, a sacred site known for the tiger paw prints in the cave, tall Buddha statues and the strenuous hike up the stairs to reach the summit. I’m not in the best shape, but I still made it to the top. Dew was super patient and encouraged me along the way.

After a delicious lunch, we stopped at one of the most beautiful temples in Krabi, Wat Kaew Korawaram (up there with the temples of Chiang Mai ), before heading out on the water in a longtail boat to Phra Nang Cave and Railay Beach.

It was such an awesome day from start to finish. Dew isn’t only a knowledgeable guide but also a great photographer.

If you ever find yourself in the tropical paradise of Krabi, then there is one guided tour that you cannot miss – a day tour to the Phi Phi Islands and Maya Bay.

The tour started early in the morning, and our mode of transport was a speedboat. The first stop was the famous Maya Bay, on Phi Phi Leh Island. This place has now become one of the  best things to do in Thailand after the famous movie “The Beach” starring Leonardo DiCaprio was filmed here.

No island tour was complete without enjoying some water activities. Our speedboat pulled into Phi Lee Bay, a bay that was surrounded by limestone cliffs. We jumped into the water and went for a swim and snorkel. We saw a ton of different fishes and corals, and our tour guide even said we could see leopard sharks, but we didn’t have any luck that day. 

Around midday, we headed to Koh Phi Phi Don for a buffet lunch. It was a buffet-style lunch with a variety of delicious Thai food and international cuisine. It was much needed after a morning of activities. 

After lunch, we visited Bamboo Island and Monkey Bay. Bamboo Island was perfect for sunbathing and more snorkeling, while Monkey Bay, true to its name, was home to a community of monkeys who seemed as curious about us as we were about them.

And finally, we headed back home on our speedboat, watching the gorgeous sunset dip behind the limestone mountains of the bay.

🐚 Pro tip >> This Phi Phi Islands tour starts at 8:00 am so you arrive at Maya Bay before the majority of other tourists.

Krabi is one of Thailand’s most popular beach destinations – for good reason! Sparkling turquoise waters and white sand beaches meet affordable cuisine and killer views in this sleepy Thai beach town. Whether you’re searching for culture, eats, or a great spot to sunbathe, a trip to Krabi is a welcome addition to any Thailand bucket list. 

My friend and I visited Krabi in 2022 and we quite simply couldn’t get enough. When we weren’t stuffing our faces at the best Thai restaurants in Ao Nang , we were climbing almost 1,300 steps to the Tiger Cave Temple, sipping freshly made coconut smoothies on Railay Beach and embarking on day trips to the countless beautiful islands around Krabi. 

One of our favorite day trips was this tour from Ao Nang to Hong Island . For only 40 USD/person (+ 300 baht for the national park fee), we got round-trip transportation from our hotel, transportation by longtail boat to multiple nearby islands, the use of snorkeling equipment, and a tasty lunch.

Our stop at Hong Island was the crowd favorite. We spent the most time there, bathing in the sparkling blue waters, climbing to the island’s highest viewpoint, and relaxing on the beautiful beach. 

If you only have a few days in Krabi, I highly recommend taking this tour. The view of the limestone cliffs against the turquoise ocean is something I’ll never forget.

Written by Alice from Adventures of Alice

One of the best things we did during our trip to Thailand was to go kayaking through the mangrove forests in Krabi. This was an absolutely incredible experience; the forest was beautiful, we met some amazing people, and our guide was superb. 

We did this as a combo tour with a dirt biking section as well, but I wasn’t overly impressed with the dirt biking part. It just felt like we were driving in circles and seemed a little silly. However, the kayaking was one of the highlights of our trip. 

We booked our tour through a local tour guide in Krabi town, that way you can haggle with the tour guides and often get a better price. The guide then picked us up from our hotel near  Ao Nang , we changed into our life jackets and got into the kayaks.

The tour itself lasted about 2 hours. We sailed past beautiful cliff formations, waterlogged forests, and through a few beautiful lagoons. We even saw some wild monkeys! Our guide was able to explain all about the landscape, how the forest was formed, why the cliff faces were multi-colored, and about the wildlife that lives within the trees.

It was an incredible experience and I highly recommend it to anyone visiting Krabi.

🚣‍♀️ Book online >> If you prefer to arrange everything in advance, this is the most popular kayaking tour in Krabi with a 5-star rating and almost 400 reviews.

This was another one of my favorite tours I did in Krabi, with a small group (we were only 5) and very knowledgeable guides. I joined this tour before I discovered the private Instagram tour I talked about above. I had never heard about the Emerald Pool and Blue Lagoon so if it wasn’t for this tour I would have missed both again.

I got picked up at my hotel in Ao Nang and headed to our first stop at the stunning Emerald Pool. From there we walked along the path to the next stop of the day, the Blue Lagoon. Enjoy this gorgeous gem surrounded by large, overhanging trees with roots that extend across the water.

We then took a break for lunch at a local restaurant, before we spent some time at the Hot Springs Waterfall. The tour ended with a visit to the majestic Wat Kaew Korawaram.

You’ll get a complimentary bottle of water, however, the lunch and any snacks you have to pay for yourself.

I really enjoyed both tours, even though they both covered the Emerald Pool and the white temple. If I had to choose I would probably go with the private Instagram tour , however, this one is the more affordable choice.

In my mind, no trip to SEA is complete without a cooking class. Thai is one of my favorite cuisines so when someone recommended this cooking class with professional chef Ye, I had to book it. And let me tell you, it did not disappoint.

I was picked up from my hotel in Ao Nang along with another couple. Before we started cooking we got an introduction to Thai food and all the rich colors, delicate aromas, and spices that go into making the perfect Thai dish.

Then we got to choose 6 dishes to cook. Pad Thai, Massaman Curry and Mango sticky rice, to name a few. My mouth is watering just from writing this. Learning how to balance flavors and make curry pastes from scratch using classic utensils and techniques was so much fun.

Definitely one of my favorite days in Thailand ever, just as good as the class I did in Bangkok .

🍚 Check price and availability here >> Ya’s Thai Cookery School class

This tour is jam-packed with beautiful places I would never have visited on my own. Travel by traditional longtail boat to Koh Poda, Chicken Island, Koh Tub, and Koh Mor, and stop at the beautiful Phra Nang Cave Beach at Railay.

Poda Island was my favorite stop, it is just breathtaking with the white sand and turquoise shallow water.

Bottled water, a Thai-style boxed picnic lunch on the beach, seasonal fruit and snorkeling equipment are included in the price, but you have to pay for the National Park entrance fee (200 THB per adult and 100 THB per child).

The boat was a little crowded, however, I wouldn’t expect anything else for the very reasonable price I paid. And it only meant I got to talk with a lot of lovely people. Our guides kept us entertained, hydrated and well-fed throughout the 6-7 hours.

This afternoon tour begins with a convenient hotel pick-up in the Krabi area, followed by a journey to the stunning Ao Thalane (Thalane Bay), known for its enchanting mangrove forests.

Upon arrival at the kayak center, the friendly tour guide provided a concise yet thorough briefing on paddle usage, ensuring our safety. Equipped with life jackets and a dry bag for our valuables, we embarked on an unforgettable kayaking journey through the mangrove river.

If you’re a nature lover you will appreciate the opportunity to spot diverse wildlife, including monitor lizards, crab-eating macaques, monkeys, vibrant tropical birds, and mudskippers in the mud during low tide. The tranquility of paddling through the mangrove forests and caves without the usual crowds added to the overall serenity of the experience.

The highlight of the tour was undoubtedly the BBQ dinner on a private beach. We got lucky with the weather. The delicious seafood meal complete with sides, sauces and fresh fruit, was a perfect culmination of the day’s adventures.

🍚 Check price and availability here >> Kayaking and sunset BBQ dinner tour

This sunset and seafood dinner cruise effortlessly encapsulated the essence of the region, featuring pristine white sand beaches, tropical islands, and awe-inspiring natural wonders.

I was picked up from my hotel in Ao Nang around 1:15 pm and boarded the ship at Ao Nam Mao Pier. We set sail for Pranang Cave, Chicken Island, and the picturesque Pirate Beach.

The crystal-clear waters and powdery white sand beaches provided a stunning backdrop for swimming and snorkeling. It was so much fun to see the vibrant coral reefs and abundance of tropical fish around Poda and Tub Islands.

After building up an appetite from all the time in the water, we enjoyed a Thai dinner consisting of fresh BBQ seafood on the deck with the sun setting over the ocean as the backdrop.

Krabi boasts stunning landscapes, including limestone cliffs, pristine beaches, and lush jungles, making it an ideal setting for diverse guided tours.

All the islands just off the coast are what makes Krabi so special, and they are most easily visited as part of a guided tour. Activities like climbing and kayaking in the Mangroves are also best done accompanied by a local guide.

Krabi offers a variety of guided tours, including island hopping, snorkeling and diving excursions, jungle trekking, temple tours, street food tours and cooking classes , as well as adventure activities like rock climbing and kayaking.

Booking a guided tour in Krabi is easy. You can either book online through my favorite sites, Viator and GetYourGuide , use local tour operators and organizers, or ask you accommodation to arrange it for you.

If you want to save money on travel bookings you can often get a great deal if you contact the tour operator directly while you are in Krabi. However, then you also risk the tours already being full. I prefer to book in advance online, with Viator you can reserve the tour and pay later.

Most of the tour mentioned in this post, apart from the rock climbing and kayaking, are suitable for families with small children. You might have to carry the little ones up the stairs to the Tiger Temple though.

It all depends on the type of tour you’re doing. But generally, I recommend you bring sunglasses, a hat, reef-safe sunscreen , light and comfortable clothing, swimwear (I love this swimsuit and this bikini ), insect repellent, and a camera. I used my GoPro the most while in Krabi.

For specific activities like trekking or rock climbing, just wear your normal summer hiking attire. Climbing shoes and gear are provided. Ask your tour company if you have any questions.

I also recommend bringing a filtered water bottle on all your travels, so you can fill it up anywhere.

🌟 LifeStraw Go Water Filter Bottle

My favorite bottle for travel, backpacking and hiking.

You can fill it up anywhere, LifeStraw filters bacteria, parasites, chemicals and microplastics.

For every LifeStraw product purchased, a child in need receives safe water for an entire school year!

Yes, most guided tours in Krabi include English-speaking guides. In some cases, other languages may be available, depending on the tour operator. It’s always a good idea to check and confirm when booking. I have done five tours in Krabi and all my guides spoke great English.

Absolutely! I did all five tours as a solo traveler. Joining group tours is a great way to meet like-minded individuals, and many activities are designed to accommodate solo adventurers.

Where To Stay in Krabi for a Week

I’d recommend, Ao Nang as it’s a tourist hub with a wide range of accommodations , restaurants, and entertainment options.

It’s a convenient base for exploring the nearby islands and attractions. Here you will find luxurious resorts, mid-range hotels, and budget-friendly guesthouses.

Railay Beach is a peninsula, only accessible by boat because there are no roads from Krabi town to Railay. It offers a more secluded and laid-back feel compared to Ao Nang, it can make sightseeing and getting around a little more difficult so i’d only recommend staying here if you just want a week of chilling out and sunbathing.

If you’d prefer a more authentic Thai experience, then I’d suggest Krabi Town. It’s the provincial capital and offers a local vibe with its markets, street food, and cultural attractions. It’s a better area for sightseeing another with Ao Nang.

Best Time to Visit for a Week

If blue skies and sunny days and low levels of rain are what you’re looking for, I’d suggest visiting during the dry season. It’s considered the best time to visit Krabi, which typically runs from November to April.

Keep in mind this is also the busiest time of year and will be packed with tourists (okay, it’s not that bad but there might be a lo more people around). Accommodation prices are going to be higher during this time as well.

I prefer the wet season which typically runs from May to October. personally, October is my favourite time to visit Krabi (and Phuket!). There are more likely to have short bursts of heavy rain or evening showers.

You can definitely still enjoy sunny days during the wet season, but, you are more likely to experience overcast grey skies (not ideal for photos) and a higher chance of rain. 

Day 1: Arrival in Krabi – Explore Ao Nang

Upon arrival at Krabi International Airport, you will be greeted by the warm Thai hospitality. Head to your hotel to drop your bags off, it’s time to get your adventure on!

Explore Ao Nang Beach, an area filled with shops, restaurants, and beachside bars. Stroll along the sandy shore, enjoy the sea breeze, and dip your toes into the warm Andaman Sea.

If you have arrived in Krabi in the morning, then grab a delicious lunch at one of the local Thai eateries or beachfront restaurants, to fuel you up for the rest of the afternoon.

After lunch, take a walk through the streets of Ao Nang and check out the little shops that sell souvenirs, beachwear, or local handmade gifts. If you’re feeling a little adventurous, rent a kayak or stand-up paddleboard and explore the coastline.

As sunset approaches, make your way to Ao Nang beach and watch as the setting sun over the ocean. Krabi has some of the prettiest sunsets in Thailand (in my opinion anyway).

After sunset, you can either head back to the main area and choose from a number of dining options on the beach or REEVE Beach Club for a luxe dining experience.

After dinner, if you still have energy, you can continue to enjoy the nightlife in Ao Nang. Either visit a beach bar and sip on a yummy tropical cocktail, listen to live music, or even join a beachside fire show for an unforgettable evening.

Day 2: Island Hopping

Hopefully you didn’t party too hard last night because today, you’ll be waking up early for a day of island hopping! Make sure to fuel up with a yummy breakfast at your hotel before starting your adventure. If you’re tour picks you up before breakfast starts, most hotels can arrange a box breakfast for you to take with you – all you need to do is ask.

Make sure to pack your reef safe sunscreen as you join a full-day island-hopping tour by longtail boat , which will take you to some of the most famous and picturesque islands in the area. You’ll start with a visit to Phi Phi Islands, which are known for their stunning beauty and crystal-clear waters. The movie “The Beach” with the droll worthy (in his hay day!) Leonardo Dicaprio, which was filled on Ko Phi Phi Le.

You’ll get to explore Phi Phi Leh and the famous Maya Bay from the movie. Here you can check out the island and go for a swim. If you’re travelling during the high season, the beach will likely be packed with people. Head inland, it will be a lot quieter and the scenery is really pretty.

From there, you’ll continue to Bamboo Island, a small island with white sandy beaches and a great spot to go snorkelling. Here you’ll get enjoy a delicious lunch either on the beach or served on board the boat.

After lunch, head to Phi Phi Don, the larger of the Phi Phi Islands. Here you can explore the local village, relax on the beaches, or go snorkelling, the afternoon is your time to enjoy, just don’t fall asleep on the beach and miss the boat (like I did!).

On your way back to Krabi, they will likely make a stop at Pileh Lagoon, an emerald green lagoon surrounded by towering limestone cliffs. Where you can enjoy your final swim for the day before heading back to Krabi.

Once you get back, if you have the energy head out for dinner by the beach or if I were you, I’d grab some room service and enjoy Netflix and relaxing in bed.

Day 3: Railay Beach and Rock Climbing

Yesterday was a little crazy hey! Don’t worry today you can relax and rejuvenate and add in some rock climbing if you have the energy. You’re headed to Railay Beach, a peninsula only accessible by boat.

Side note: I’d recommend booking a hotel in Railay for the night so you don’t have to try rush back for the last ferry. Head back to Krabi tomorrow.

Either hire a longtail boat or jump on the ferry from Ao Nang to Railay Beach. The ferry goes along this route 3 times a day, it is cheaper but you need to make sure to keep an eye on your time. You can always catch he ferry there and a long tail boat back.

If you’re feeling adventurous, consider trying your hand at rock climbing. Railay is very well known for its world-class rock climbing routes. Join a guided rock climbing session they will provide you with all the gear and show you the best routes based on your experience. Or you can rent a kayak and paddle through the mangroves or around the limestone cliffs to explore hidden coves and beaches.

If you prefer a more relaxed day, then sit back and unwind on the beach, sunbathe, or go for a swim. Railay Beach is really beautiful and because of this, it can get fairly crowded, so try to get there earlier in the morning, that way, you can grab the best spot on the beach.

If you get bored of relaxing (you monster haha!), go for a wander and check out the different sections of Railay Beach. I’d recommend a visit to Phra Nang Cave Beach, which is well known as a cave filled with phallic-shaped stalactites.

After sunset, head back to the main area of Railay Beach, where you can find plenty of places to grab some dinner. Indulge in a delicious seafood dinner, some local Thai cuisine, or international dishes at one of the beachfront restaurants.

If you’re up for some evening entertainment, Railay has a great nightlife scene with live music, fire shows, or you can relax at a beach bar.

Tomorrow’s gonna be another busy one, get a good nights rest and get your walking shoes ready!

Day 4: Krabi Town and Tiger Cave Temple

Head back to the main part of Krabi on the ferry or via longtail board. You’ll explore Krabi Town, the Thai markets and cultural attractions in the area.

Begin your day at the morning market, where you can immerse yourself in the local culture and enjoy the smell of fresh produce, local Thai delicacies, and buy some handmade goodies.

After exploring the market, it’s time to visit the iconic Wat Tham Sua, also known as the Tiger Cave Temple . The temple is located in a forest setting and gets its name from a tiger paw print found in the cave.

Grab your walking shoes and a big bottle of water, because you’ll be climbing the 1,237 steps to get to the summit, passing beautiful Buddhist shrines along the way. The climb can be a little challenging in the heat, but the views from the top are absolutely worth it – so keep going! I know you can do it!

Take your time to explore the temple complex, the statues, the golden Buddha images, and intricate carvings. You can also participate in a meditation session or ask for a blessing from the resident monks. Note for women , you cannot be alone with a monk and please do not touch them, even if its to get their attention.

After descending from the temple, head back to Krabi Town and treat yourself to a well-deserved traditional Thai massage. Once you’re nice and relaxed, explore the lantern lit streets of Krabi Town and visit the night market. Here you can try out delicious street food, such as pad Thai, grilled seafood, spicy curries, pork balls on a stick (my personal favourite) and yummy Thai desserts.

Day 5: Four Islands Tour and Sunset Cruise

Today, you’ll be heading out on another full-day adventure; the Four Islands Tour , which will take you to some of the most stunning islands such as Tup Island, Chicken Island, Poda Island and Koh Poda Island.

Your first stop will be Tup Island, a small, picture-perfect tropical paradise (truly!). During low tide, a sandbar emerges, connecting Tup Island with neighboring islands, creating an area for you to walk between the islands, that gives the illusion that you’re “walking on water”

Next, head to Chicken Island, named after its unique rock formation that resembles a chicken’s head. Here you’ll enjoy a picnic lunch served on the boat or on one of the nearby islands.

After lunch, visit Poda Island, known for its long sandy beach and super clear waters. Relax on the beach, go for a swim or snorkel, or soak up the sun while appreciating the views of the cliffs that dot the horizon.

Finally, you’ll head back to Railay Beach and Phra Nang Cave. You’ll get to see the limestone cliffs that frame the beach and chill out on the beach. You can swim, sunbathe, or explore the nearby caves. If you didn’t get to see the caves on day 3, this is your chance.

Alternatively, M/Y Lalida Sunset Dinner Cruise in Krabi or 7 Islands Sunset Tour in Thailand with Dinner , stop off/swing by the above islands AND offer a sunset dinner. They start around 1-2pm sp you can see these islands and have a sunset dinner, if you would rather spend the morning lounging by the pool or sleeping in.

Day 6: Emerald Pool and Hot Springs

Day 6 consists of a day trip to the enchanting Khao Phra Bang Khram Nature Reserve , where you’ll visit the famous Emerald Pool (Sa Morakot) and natural hot springs.

Travel to the Khao Phra Bang Khram Nature Reserve, located approximately 70 kilometers from Ao Nang. The trip here, takes you through scenic landscapes of forests and towering mountains. Once you arrive at the nature reserve, make your way to the Emerald Pool. It is a natural, freshwater pool famous for its mesmerizing green colour water (it looks more appealing than it sounds).

The pool is naturally fed by hot springs, which gives it, its unique colour and it is also said to have healing properties. After enjoying the Emerald Pool, take a short walk through the jungle to reach the nearby natural hot springs. Let the soothing heat relax your muscles and revitalise your mind, body and soul in this relaxing environment.

If time permits, you can visit the nearby Khlong Thom Waterfall, which is actually a hot spring waterfall, with water temperatures of 40-50 degrees Celsius.

For lunch, the tour organisers will either set up a picnic in, or you’ll head to a local restaurant to sample traditional dishes from the area.

Krabi has a significant Muslim population, and there are several Muslim villages in the area. These villages offer a look into Islamic culture, traditions, and architecture. During the afternoon, you could explore mosques, observe locals practicing their faith, and perhaps even have the opportunity to try some traditional Muslim cuisine, if you’re still hungry.

Day 7: Scenic Kayaking OR An ATV Adventure

Unfortunately, today is your last day in Krabi! Your Thai adventure has almost come to an end, so the last thing to do is to join a guided kayaking tour that will take you through the mangrove forests. You’ll see a completely different side of Krabi, paddling along calm waters, immersing yourself in the beauty of the natural surroundings.

Discover hidden lagoons, caves, and channels, where you might get to see some wildlife that inhabits the mangrove ecosystem. Keep an eye out for birds, monkeys, and other creatures that call this area home.

Take a break from kayaking (you worked hard paddling!) and head to a secluded beach, where you can relax, swim, and snorkel.

You’ve been around a lot of water during your time in Krabi, so if you’re prefer a land based adventure, try out an ATV (All-Terrain Vehicle) through the landscapes of Krabi.

Follow your experienced guide as they lead you through a variety of tracks, including forests, rubber plantations, and muddy paths. Depending on the tour you choose, you may also get to go white water rafting and zip-lining !

Final Thoughts: 

Krabi is the ultimate adventure filled nature getaway. It’s unbelievably beautiful, has islands and limestone cliffs that come right out of the clear blue waters. It offers delicious Thai cuisine and has incredible views.

Trust me when I say, you won’t regret spending a week in Krabi, as soon as you get home, you’ll be planning your next trip back.

Using this itinerary, Krabi can be a busy trip or you can add in a few days of relaxation, it’s completely up to you! I hope you have found this itinerary helpful!
