  • These are our moments traveling as a family of four staying along Thailand's famed coastline, Krabi. The area is dotted with beautiful limestone cliffs, jade-colored waters, and delicious cuisines. All of this makes for an ideal vacation, including with children.
    Here are our favorites from the area:
    (1) Enjoy the delicious night market scene and street food, either in Krabi (1:50) or Ao Nang (11:38).
    (2) Have an easy, free beach day at the local beach in Ao Nang (4:48).
    (3) Eat lunch or dinner seaside, at one of the many restaurants lining the Ao Nang Beach (5:57).
    (4) Travel by boat and visit the most famed beach in the area, Railay Beach (6:39).
    (5) Hike to a beach not accessible by roads, and be rewarded with a well-appointed beach club (14:42).
    (6) Spend the day (or more!) visiting the beautiful islands just off shore (18:55).
    (7) Catch a beautiful sunset at the beach -- most of them face west (22:45)!
    (8) Go for a night snorkel and swim with the glowing sea given bioluminescent activity in the area (23:21).
    (9) Marvel at the fire dancers in the area (24:46).
    (10) Visit the fresh water springs and hot springs in the area (25:14).

    This is awesome - brings back memories.
    I went to Thailand 4 times and 2 of the occasions I did stay in Ao Nang. I did the exact 7-island tour in the afternoon as well with the fire show at the end when we got back to the pier. From Ao Nang, you could have done Phi Phi Island Tour which is closer to Ao Nang/Krabi than Phuket, and Hong Island Tour which is incredible. I did the Railey beach as a day trip but I went to nearby Tonsai beach in addition as well. Also did the Emerald Pool and Hot Springs. I think Tiger Cave Temple would have been challenging having to climb 1237 steps with aggressive monkeys and heat that you had to fend off and not ideal with two young kids too. Surprisingly I have never visited Chiang Mai but I am planning for one more Thailand trip which will include Chiang Mai.

    • @FindingSalas
      @FindingSalas  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Wow, this sounds like some epic travels, what a beautiful life! ❤ The Tiger Cave Temple is a great suggestion too! We ended up skipping it mostly because of the heat, but also because we had the opportunity to visit many temples in the weeks before this in Chiang Mai. Maybe if only one of those was true, we would have gone. Hopefully in a future trip. 🙏 Wishing you the best of luck in Chiang Mai, it is a really wonderful city!!

      The 1237 steps at Tiger Cave Temple was a killer but I did manage it although it took me 45 minutes to reach the summit. I did climb almost 700 steps at Seven Wells Waterfalls in Langkawi (Malaysia), 500 steps at Ouzoud Waterfalls in Morocco and 300-odd steps at Batu Caves in Malaysia - and all of them had crazy monkeys that you had to deal with lol

      We have been to Bali and Singapore pre-vlogging days so can't direct you to a video link unfortunately. But we did a big roadtrip around Bali with homebases in Uluwatu and Bukit Peninsula area (Southern Bali), Ubud area (interior), and Pemuteran (north) so may be able to help you there.
      And in the meantime have been studying up on visiting Singapore again for a much anticipated trip to neighboring Malaysia, so may have recommendations there too. Which by the way if you do not have Malaysia on your list you should consider it, especially if you are traveling by land and will be passing though between Thailand and Singapore. There are so many interesting corners, and it's less touristy than some of its more popular neighbors (if that is something you are seeking).
      Please let us know if you have other questions, or specifics on any of these areas. There is so much that could be said (in the best way) but not sure where you are in your inspiration versus planning journey.
      Sending you all the best and safe travels!

    Beautiful video. I'm planning to go Karbi on end November this year. Do you know what time is the last boat taxi from Railay to Ao Nang? As I would like to enjoy sunset in Railay but worry we couldn't catch the last boat if stayed until sunset.

      Hello and thank you for watching! ❤️ That is a great question.
      There is no fixed schedule between Krabi (Ao Nang pier) and Railay; boats leave as soon as there are 8 people on board. This can be every 10 minutes during the busiest time of day, and up to an hour or more between boats at night. The cost is 100 bhat per person each way.
      Boats between Railay and Ao Nang may run up until at least 11pm but they are infrequent after sunset. You can reliably plan on a boat until sunset though and probably won't be alone in your sunset viewing. But try to hop on a boat right after that. And here too, you will have to wait until there are at least 8 of you. After sunset there's less of a demand to get back to Ao Nang.

    Hello! I loved this video! ❤️ I’ll go to Thailand in October 🤗 can you tell how much is the 7 island tour per adult? Also, did you bought in person, or can we buy it online?

    • @FindingSalas
      @FindingSalas  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi Rita! Thanks for your lovely note! 🥰
      The 7-island tour was through a company called Miriam, who you can book with in person in their office along the boardwalk in Ao Nang. Or online (as we did) through www.mythailandtours.com.
      Note this is the *sunset* tour in the afternoon, evening, and night -- not the regular tour during the morning and afternoon. The sunset tour was 725 Thai Bhat / 22 US Dollars / 21 Euros per adult and the tour was a full day by tour standards (around 8 hours). That is an incredible deal! The sunset tour is a little bit less money than the daytime tour too, and from what we understand has less people on the islands. Not sure if direct links work in TH-cam comments, but this should be it: mythailandtours.com/shop/islands-tours/7-islands-sunset-tour-by-long-tail-boat-from-krabi/
      We hope you have safe travels to Thailand. Please let us know if you have other questions. ❤✈

    Nice video! First time in the same location 2005 and many times after that. A little correction.-Your Railey beach is actually Ton Sai beach. There is a "monkey trail" to Railey east and little climb/beach front hike to the railey west.

      Hi FERWA, thanks so much for watching and for all your kind comments!
      The good news is that you can find lots of accommodations within any budget in Krabi. We usually check Booking.com when looking for a hotel because the reviews seem to be most accurate. Looks like they already made a list of those on their site: www.booking.com/cheap/region/th/krabi.html?auth_success=1
      Wherever you end up booking, read the location carefully because these "Krabi hotel searches" typically cover Krabi, Ao Nang, Ko Phi Phi, and Ko Lanta. The last two are islands, and definitely beautiful but you'll have to work a little bit harder to visit other parts of the region. However if you want to see a small set of beaches and mostly stay put/chill, this may be more appealing to you. Also note Krabi itself isn't on the beach, you'll need to go about 30 minutes over to Ao Nang. If you want to have the best combination of beach access and tour options to all four, Ao Nang will set you up well.
      Please let us know if you have other questions. Safe travels!

    I need to take a day boat tour to see "especially phi phi island" and the other beaches. What would be more more convenient for me to stay in krabi for a few days or phuket?

      @FindingSalas  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Hi Maher! Thanks for watching and for the nice comment here. We hope our videos are helpful!
      The good news is you have solid options here. You can travel to Phi Phi Island from Krabi in about 90 minutes or from Phuket in about 2 hours, each with at least a couple daily options. It's a little faster and less people on the speedboats, but that will cost a bit more. If you only have one day to spend on Phi Phi Island, it would be easiest to do an organized tour from Krabi. Especially if you get sea sick because it's an hour less (roundtrip) on the water.
      If you don't mind, where are you flying from? If internationally chances are you'll connect in Bangkok and you could actually do all 3 locations flying in and out of Bangkok and connecting to either of these locations. Especially via low-cost carriers like Air Asia making flights more accessible. You could fly into Krabi or Phuket - whichever has lowest airfare. Then ferry/boat across, see Phi Phi, and then continue on to the other. Ok maybe getting ahead of ourselves, but the sky is the limit! 😎
      Let us know if you have other questions. Happy traveling!!

      @@maher5905 hi again! ok coming from BKK you have so many options. Krabi is the easiest base, but if you are really set on seeing lots of Thailand, you could manage both -- or choose by whichever has the cheapest airfare. We did really like the Krabi area though so a humble plug there.
      And yes, we hear you on the seasickness!! You are in good company. We underestimated the waves here when we went on the 7-island tour (around 18:52), but now use both the Dramamine tablets and "sea bands". That has helped a lot! Maybe you already have it figured out, but sharing that in case it helps. 🤭

      These are the sea bands. We thought they were totally gimmicky and had never considered them, but then got desperate after too many instances of the above. And somehow they work! We haven't been brave enough to try without the tablets too, but with both, life has been much, much better. 🙃

    Hey there guys, your trip looked amazing. Can I ask where you got the child sling carrier from (12:20). Looking for one ourselves when we take our children out at night around Thailand (including Krabi). They hate walking too much. The ones I've seen look a bit cheap unlike the one you have

      Hello right back at you! 😁 We used an Ergo carrier through about age 2. However around the time of this video we upgraded to a toddler carrier (because the Ergo was really more for babies up to age 2). We purchased a "3-in-1 ergonomic toddler carrier" from Líllé Baby and it made a world of difference on our backs!! It can be used when traveling, running errands, hiking -- we tested all the limits and sometimes for many hours straight! It's good up to about 60 pounds / 27 kilograms.
      Here are all of their toddler carriers, in lots of colors: www.amazon.com/stores/page/C2A4A6D9-09F9-4E58-B30A-657AEA77224B?ingress=2&visitId=5a2656c4-1cdd-4830-a2fb-6aea59784078&ref_=ast_bln
