Gate 8
Our flight was supposed to depart at 12.35pm, but it was delayed for nearly an hour.
After 1.5 hour of flight, we finally arrived at Krabi!
We took a cab from Krabi International Airport to Aree Tara Resort and it took around 30 - 40 minutes. Upon arrival, we were greeted warmly by the staffs and was offered a glass of Pineapple juice each. Checking in was a breeze and the staffs even brief us on the facilities and activities that are available within the resort and the different tour packages.
Our pool access room located on the ground floor is wonderful and it is equipped with special extra day bed at the private balcony. The room are clean, modern, minimalist and beautifully furnished.
I love the unique and creative presentation of the towels in the hotel room. One thing they need to improve on is the hotel breakfast. There are not much selection and the food are too salty.
Aree Tara Resort is located at the beautiful Ao Nang, Nopparattara beach, which is only 10 - 15 minutes walk to Ao Nang Center and shopping areas. If you choose to go by Tuk Tuk, it cost 20 Baht per person.
We booked our 3 days tour packages through Miracle Tour at Ao Nang Center. We paid S$230.80 for two pax. It includes hotel transfers, drinking water and fruits, buffet lunch, entrance fees, accident insurance, free use of snorkelling equipment and etc. They will pick us up from the hotel at 8.30am in the morning, and sent us back at 5pm in the evening.
The activities includes Island Hopping, White Water Rafting, Waterfall, Elephant Trekking, Elephant and Monkey show, Tiger Cave Temple, Hot Spring and Emerald Pool.
We will never go hungry in Krabi! Food is everywhere, from mobile motorcycle and pushcart vendors to streetside stalls and markets, as well as great selection of small eateries, outdoor cafes and fancy restaurant.
Coming up next..
Krabi Trip Day 2!
