Krabi is a small city in Thailand just in from the coast. With a population of just 18,000, Krabi retains a traditional Thai feel, and is a refreshing change to some of the more developed areas of Thailand. Whether you want an organised tour of Krabi itself, or are keen to explore its surroundings, you will find a tour to suit your needs.

The Phang Nga Bay Tour from Krabi takes you to the Phang Nga Bay, which was used as a paradise island setting for the James Bond film The Man With The Golden Gun. Drive for 1.5 hours before boarding a boat to the Bay, where you can explore the perfect white beaches, cliffs and villages.

See all of Krabi in a unique way with the Krabi Hot Stream and Rainforest 4WD Tour. Touring by jeep is fast and fun, and allows you to explore more of the area than you could otherwise. You will see rainforests and hot streams, finishing with a refreshing swim in the tranquil emerald pool at the heart of the jungle.

If you want to feel like a real explorer for the day, try the Krabi Canoe Cave Explorer Tour. You will be guided through the breathtaking natural limestone formations by a professional ...

Krabi is surrounded by many islands, with one of the most beautiful being Koh Hong Island. You can take a tour of Koh Hong Island and Pelay Beach by speedboat from Krabi and enjoy a picnic, swimming and snorkelling in the shallow waters and around the coral reefs of the island too on this 5 hour trip.

Two of the most popular islands out of Krabi are the Phi Phi Islands. A one hour speedboat trip will take you to the islands as part of an organised tour. Explore the warm seas and swim and snorkel around Phi Phi and the smaller Phi Phi Lai, which was used as the setting for the film The Beach.

Those staying in Phuket can get to Krabi as part of an organised speedboat tour. You will explore the coastline and the wonderful caves and coves around Krabi, and enjoy a spot of lunch. Then explore Krabi itself, a more relaxing destination that Phuket, and head on to see the breathtaking small island of Bho Da.

If you would like to explore Phuket, then you can extend your visit to the Phi Phi Islands with a short ferry crossing to Phuket. Lunch is included at a traditional Thai restaurant, and you can explore the city alone or with a guide before hopping back on to the ferry to Phi Phi a few hours later.
