Snorkeling Time

 

My pictures don’t do the Beauty of the Islands much justice. But would definitely recommend this tour if you are hopping around in Krabi.

Word of Advice: Always Bargain for tour package.

Don’t listen to the 1st person who approaches when you land at the airport.
Don’t listen to the 2nd person who tries to sell his “Best package” in the taxi on your way to hotel
Don’t listen to the 3rd person who tries to sell you the package at the hotel reception
Don’t listen to the 4th person who tries to sell you package outside your hotel
Go out to Ao Nang center and find the best deals. Trust me, Its Worth it. Price will differ > 100%
If someone tells you their lunch is nicer than the other package, its BULL. You all have the same buffet lunch
