Finally, I am free to write down my 8D7N Krabi-Bangkok Trip in details. =D The whole trip cost me RM3000, which includes flight (3 flights), 7 nights accommodation, tour, food and shopping (to be honest, I bought a lot of clothes).
Let's start with Day 1. I took an afternoon flight from KLIA2 to Krabi. This is the first time I got on an AirAsia flight with LINE design. LINE~~ However, the flight was like roller coaster ride. My friend and I felt so nauseous and worried throughout the flight. Thank god we landed safely at Krabi.
Cute design!
Of course we won't miss the chance to take a wefie in the cute cabin.
Upon arrival at airport, we booked a cab to our hotel, which cost us THB600 per cab. We chose cab over public bus as they cost the same to us after dividing. For bus, it will cost THB150 per person. So, it is more comfortable for us to get the cab instead. Our cab driver - Somchai is a very friendly gentleman. He welcomed us to Krabi and suggested us some things to do in Krabi. So nice of him! We also booked our day trip to Phi Phi Island (THB1000) and Emerald Pool (THB900) at the airport too. Settled everything at once before we start to enjoy. =)
About 45 minutes ride, we arrived at our hotel -- Ibis Style Ao Nang. I booked it via Agoda with the price of RM234/pax for 3 nights stay. Quite worthy. The room size is rather small but environment is very comfortable.
Here's the room with twin bed. The room size is just nice to fit 2 person and there is some space for packing. Toilet is clean and nice too.
Pool view + Mountain view from the balcony. Amazing view.
After washing up, we went out to hunt for some food.
Street view outside of our hotel.
Saw a food stall selling coconut ice cream by the roadside. YEAH! It's coconut ice cream!
Bought it for THB30, cheapest and most delicious coconut ice cream I've bought throughout the trip.
Let's take a food portrait!
And typical tourist photo with food. XD
Then, we went to an Indian/Thai fusion restaurant for light meal. We ordered 2 dishes to be shared among 4 of us -- Green Curry with Chicken and also Pineapple Fried Rice.
Green-est ever green curry I've ever tried. But the taste is okay. Just too oily and too green >.<
The Pineapple Fried Rice.
Happy Face while waiting for our food to be served. The restaurant took 30 minutes to serve the food. Not gonna recommend this place.
After that, we went to family mart to look for Lays with smiley face. It is the trend so we want to have a photo with it too!
It fits my face quite well. Hehe....
After hunting for food, we went back to Ibis Style Hotel to join the Night Market Tour at 6pm. We paid THB200 per pax for this night market tour for return trip of the van. I think the price is quite okay as the journey was quite long, around 20-30 minutes drive.
Here we are at Krabi Weekend Night Market! As the name mentioned, this night market is only open over the weekend, mainly saying Friday, Saturday and Sunday night. So don't miss out your chance to visit if you are here for the weekend. There are a lot of food and souvenirs to look here!
We arrived around 6.30pm and it is still bright. But there are a lot of people walking around already.
Wefie before exploring the night market! Let's go!
First stall that I found interesting is this pancake stall! The small pancake has different fillings and if you have trouble deciding, you can choose 7 pieces with mixed flavour for THB20. And.... I bought mixed flavour to have a try of all. Personally, I like the kaya one as it tastes like kaya ball. XD
Then we tried out this barbeque stall. They have spicy pork sausage and sour pork sausage. Looks pretty special to us and hence we bought one each. And also pork satay and pork sausage.(THB20 each) However, this stall does not sell good sausages. They are too oily and nobody wanna finish them. We have to force each other to finish it up. XD
My oily face with oily sausage. What a combination!
And then we bought a banana nutella pancake (THB50) to try. People said thailand has good banana pancake. So, how can we not try?!
But honestly, this stall is just so-so. Tastes like roti canai with banana. Nothing special.
This is my friends' favourite - cheesy potato chips. They said this is the best food so far. LOL
Then, there is this stall selling mini ice cream with cones. So Cute!!! And we get to choose the flavour! 5 cones for THB20. So cheap! It is so mini and feel less guilty after consuming. XD
We arrived at an area where there is a performance stage and tables for dining. Food stalls are surrounding this area. It took us a lot of effort to get an empty table and also to search for enough chairs. Something that amazed me is that people here will clean their tables prior leaving. Nice. *thumbs up*
After getting the table, 2 of us went to hunt for food.
Bought this grilled red snapper for THB150. It is huge! But taste so-so.
Top of this photo is a bowl of thai style curry noodle with drumstick. It is kinda special and nice. The noodle was crispy and it was soften by the hot curry. Special texture of the noodles. Me likey!
Fried Omelette with Oyster. Guess how much is this???

It is only THB80 and the oysters are huge! O-M-G. Where to get such good quality in Malaysia with such price?
Last but not least.......... Jeng Jeng..... Long waited Pad Thai (THB50)
For this, I waited for about 35 minutes and you need to get a number card upon ordering. Yes. They have such a system, which shows that this stall has really good business. No doubt. They serve the best Pad Thai I've ever tried throughout the trip. And it is just for THB50!!! *faint* *I miss you, Pad Thai*
We did some shopping after filling up our tummy with good food. Too bad we have too little time for night market -- only 3 hours before the van pick us up to head back to hotel. But friends get to buy their flip flop for island tour and also postcards to be sent home.
Got back to hotel around 9pm and we went to 7-11 to get traveler's SIM card. We got 2 SIM cards for THB199 each (500MB data and unlimited data at slower speed there after, free call among groups). The other 2 of us wanted to get but the THB199 SIM pack is out of stock. So we just got 2 to be shared for the first 2 days.
That's how my Day 1 in Krabi ended. Stay tuned for Day 2! More beautiful photos to be uploaded. =D
Professionally written blogs are rare to find, however I appreciate all the points mentioned here. I also want to include some other writing skills which everyone must aware of.
