Renting cars, bus, taxi, motorbike or boat
Rent a Car
Krabi has a good road network, especially around the national parks and local attractions, so hiring a car and driving yourself is easy. Car Hire is available at most hotel desks or travel agents.
Taxis & Local Busses
Open-air buses, (Songtaews) converted trucks and motorcycle taxis provide a cheap and efficient public transport service throughout the province. Fares vary according to the destination - whether you're running around town, or traveling from Krabi Town to one of the beach resorts. Services are efficient and regular with buses stopping wherever you want to get on or off.
Better still, rent a Songtaew (taxi truck) to drive you round for the day.
Longtail Boats & Ferries
From Krabi Town
Krabi Town, as well as being the provincial capital, is also the main harbor for local boat services.
Ferries operate to the Phi Phi Islands, Jum Island and Lanta Island, catch the boats from Chao Fah Pier (Krabi Town).
Note:
Some services stop during the monsoon season (May-October) and are substituted by a combined bus and long-tail boat system which operates from small harbors along the coast.
If you don't want to use this system, a private transfer is the only choice for certain islands like Lanta Island. The 2 car ferries, which connect the island to the mainland operate from 07:00 to 19:00. Transfer time from Krabi about 2 hours.
Longtail Boats
From Ao Nang/Railay
The coast is also well served by local "longtail" taxi boats. Fast, reliable and inexpensive, these boats depart from Ao Nang Beach (just go to the seafront) to Railay, Phra Nang and Krabi town.
Fares average around 50 - 80 Baht depending on your destination and the time of day (more expensive after sunset) The boats operate regularly between Ao Nang and Railey (they leave when there are enough passengers) and operate year round (subject to weather conditions.)
NOTE: Prices of local long tail boats are fixed so don't bother bargaining unless you are hiring the whole boat. Good Luck!!!
