This section provides some information that every traveller needs to plan their Phi Phi travel itinerary. If you have any special travel questions contact us and we will help make sure that your trip to Koh Phi Phi island is as stress-free as possible.

Ferry boats

The ferryboats are quite large and sturdy, however they are not exactly built for comfort. Fortunately the Koh Phi Phi travel times are not usually more than 1.5 hours.

Special Note:
*Arriving on flights to Phuket Int airport or Krabi airport please allow at least 1hour transit time by minibus or taxi from the airport to the ferry piers.

Speed Boats

If your flight arrives too late in Phuket or Krabi you may need to spend the night at a hotel on the mainland and catch the ferry the next morning. Or if you are just looking for a faster ride that shortens your Koh Phi Phi travel time, you could rent one of our twin engine 200up speedboats. Custom made speedboat transfers leave at your choice of time, 7 days a week.

Private Speedboat charter for daily snorkeling trips

** Price is for up to 10 persons and includes fruit and water, mask and snorkel only. The speedboat stops at different location for snorkeling and sightseeing.

Minibus service

After traveling in some cases up to 15 hours by plane the last thing you want is to haggle for prices in a crowded airport terminal and still not be sure whether you are going to where you want to go. Our door to door pick up service is professional and will save you time, energy and probably a few brain cells from imploding. Our minibuses are perfect for groups of 5 or more travelling to Koh Phi Phi and take up to 10 persons with luggage.

*Price is for one way only and is the same for the opposite journey.

 Limousine taxi service

If you are a group of 4 or less persons travelling to Koh Phi Phi and prefer to leave the airport immediately without the wait, we recommend our private limousine service. Our driver will be waiting to collect you when you arrive. Save time and hassles.
 

*Price is for one way only and is the same for the opposite journey.

Bus services

Traveling to Koh Phi Phi from BangKok by bus

Government-run bus services traveling to the south of Thailand and Malaysia use the Southern Terminal at the junction of Pinklao and Nakhon Chaisri roads in Thonburi, just outside Bangkok. Getting to the terminal can be a long journey either by local bus, taxi, or one of the infamous tuk-tuk rides. Buses travel to both Phuket and Krabi and can be long arduous journeys depending on how many stops.

Tickets are available from the bus terminal.

Helpful Tips

• Check your time of arrival and allow at least 1 hour to get from the airport to the pier.
• Purchase your ferry tickets in advance, otherwise you may find yourself paying double for them.
• Although problems are rare avoid storing valuables in bags under your seats when traveling by government bus from or to other major cities in Thailand.
• Apply for a tourist visa in advance from the Thai embassy in your country as this is easier to extend if you wish to stay longer.
• Make sure you have at least one year remaining before your passport expires.
• Avoid sitting on the upper (exposed) deck of the ferry as it is common to suffer severe sunburn, even on cloudy days.
• Bus and boat Koh Phi Phi Travel timetables are usually accurate so picking up transfers from bus to boat is relatively easy.
• Travel services such as boat, bus and plane are usually full during peak season or special holidays; book in advance.
• Book accommodationahead of time or you may find yourself settling for a room at a much higher cost
