Phi-Phi Island - Day 3 and 4

Day 3

Arrived at our resort about 1.30pm. We took 2 hrs boat ride from Phuket pier to Phi-phi pier (RM40 each). We had lunch at our resort overlooking the sea. Today is pretty much relax and easy day as we book a 3 hour long tail boat tour for 3 hours, from 7am-10am tomorrow morning. We booked the tour at about 5-6pm when we were walking around Long Beach and a tour guy asked us what we planned for tomorrow. That exclusive snorkelling tour costs us RM120 per boat.

We stayed at Long Beach, RM8 each per ride from the pier. It's not as busy as the Tonsai Village, which was walking distance from the pier.


Sunset at Long Beach
Day 4

Woke up early to go on our snorkelling trip. We were suppose to wake up at 6am but Sim Li put it as 6am Malaysian time, unknowingly we only found out when we got ready by 7am, but it's only 6am Thai time. So, we got to watch sunrise and went over to Mom and Dad's room and help them get ready faster.

Sunrise at 6.30am

View from our room.

Destination 1: Snorkelling at Maya Bay, where they filmed the show entitled The Beach with Leonardo Di Caprio

Destination 3: De Lagun. Dad and our guide :)

Us at De Lagun. Our boat trip ended here and we were dropped off at Tonsai Village.

Spectacular @ Phi phi View Point near Tonsai Village. After this, it was free and easy (have to lah) because we ran out of money. haha. Ate boiled eggs this morning and fried eggs the other (we bought bread from 7-eleven to go with our fried eggs tomorrow). We were scheduled to depart tomorrow at 9am, another 2 hour ferry ride to Krabi.

We had lunch here.

After lunch, we took a boat to Railey Beach. It's RM8 each.

Nice resorts found at Railey Beach.

After we shopped at Ao Nang, we took a half an hour bus back to Krabi town. It was RM4 each.

We all love staying at the Greenery Hotel because it' s central from the pier, night and morning market. At night, we ate and shopped at the night market. Mom and dad got 2 Thai ladies to give them massage in our room.

Today's the last day. We ate breakfast at the morning market. Then, Sim Li and I continued last minute shopping.

Walking around Krabi town.

That's all for now!! Our trip in a nutshell :) So, what you waiting for? We can now start planning for our next family trip!!
