The awesome trip to Krabi (Thailand)

We made this trip to Krabi (Thailand) in September 2015.

The other option was Phuket as it is more popular among tourists , but on Googling learned that Krabi can be a better choice if you are running away from crowds as it isn't as commercialised as Phuket.So naturally we selected Krabi !

We booked hotel 'ibis styles krabi Ao Nang' for accommodation which is only a 10 minutes walk from AoNang beach. Even though the hotel provides complimentary tuktuk rides to AoNang beach at regular intervals , the 10 minutes walk to beach is worth as you pass by along multi-cuisine restaurants and shops/boutiques selling arts and handicrafts.

Sharing some snaps of this awesome trip to Krabi.
