fenghouse Sherry Feng Post Count: 11 Msg: #1 41 weeks ago, March 4th 2009 | Hi, I only have a week in Thailand, I really want to explore the islands down south. Is it too ambitious to want to cover both Koh Samui and Koh Phi Phi? How does one travel from one island to the other? How far apart are they? | Thanks Any information or experience of both islands will be appreciated.

We flew in Krabi and went to Ao Nang and then took a boat to Phi Phi. Krabi is about 15 minutes from Ao Nang by songthaew. The boat ride to Phi Phi was under 2 hrs if I remember correctly. | From Krabi we booked a bus/ferry ticket for Samui. We left around 8:00 in the morning and headed to Surat Thani (actually just up the road from there to the pier). We were on the ferry and at Samui's pier by 18:00. You then have to get a ride to your guest house. A whole day of travel. fenghouse Sherry Feng Post Count: 11 Msg: #3 40 weeks ago, March 5th 2009 | Thanks for all the info, it's very helpful. | RichandCarol Richard and Carol Post Count: 9 Msg: #4 39 weeks ago, March 14th 2009 | If your only there for the week you may want to consider the time of year and where the rainy season is, they are not the same on the the sides of thailand so the weather can differ. | allthai Randy Gaudet Post Count: 12 Msg: #5 37 weeks ago, March 25th 2009 | Hi Sherry, | Here is a link to <snip> <snip> Enjoy, Randy and Ning [Edited: 09:55 - Mell ] fenghouse Sherry Feng Post Count: 11 Msg: #6 37 weeks ago, March 25th 2009 | cool, thanks!!! | Number of Users: 4 | Number of Posts: 6 | ||||||||||||||
