Visit Krabi
Visit Krabi
Alea Simone
Krabi is a great place to visit, especially if you don't have time to stay in Koh Phi Phi and still want to visit the islands. It generally has a party vibe, and has a lot of interesting stuff to explore.

Things to do
Krabi Town Night Market
@TheTravelTaurus
This night market was located super close to the Pak-Up Hostel, by the river. It's open every night. They have really good cheap food that they make right there in front of you. I always order pad thai because every vendor claims they make the best one. They make it so quick, I don't understand what takes people so long in America to make your food after visiting these markets. You can get pad thai for like 40 bhat. I also recommend trying the banana thai pancakes.

Wat Tham Suea (Tiger Cave Temple)
@TheTravelTaurus
I haven't done this, but this is a very popular hike that people do when they visit Krabi. The first time I visited, the hostel I was staying at was doing a free sunset hike here every afternoon. I don't hike, but if you like to hike, you should check it out.

If you skip visiting Koh Phi Phi, you can still visit the Phi Phi Islands on a day trip from Krabi in a speedboat.
Phi Phi Islands
@TheTravelTaurus
These are the islands off of Koh Phi Phi. It's one of the main things to do here. Click the link to see my TikTok of monkeys jumping on my boat. You can take a speedboat with a bunch of other people, or you can book a little longtail boat, which means it'll probably just be you and your driver. They'll take you wherever you want to go snorkeling.
You can find a boat driver just by walking down the street. Just go up to any water taxi guy, and book it.
The last time I was in Thailand, I took a speedboat tour to the islands from Krabi, but I liked it better on the longtail boat. It was about $40 and was less crowded. The tour took about 4 hours. If you have more people with you when you book it, it will cost less.
They gave us water on the boat. We weren't out long enough to need food.
A note: If you're doing this trip from Krabi instead of from Koh Phi Phi, you'll most likely only have the option of doing the speed boat, and it will be a full-day trip since it's a further distance. The trip will usually include lunch.
