Krabi Premium Outlet Village

Krabi Premium Outlet Village
Do you know there is a Premium Outlet Village or Brand Factory Outlet in Krabi? We missed it and didn’t manage to go there for our first two trips to Krabi so we definitely will visit this place on our third time.

The Premium Outlet Village is located on the main road. Often if you travelled from the airport to Aonang, the outlet can be visibly seen on the right hand side.
The outlet has a few sections and fully air conditioned. It was like a very hot day …

119 Thai Baht Charcoal BBQ Buffet in Krabi, Thailand

119 Thai Baht Charcoal BBQ Buffet in Krabi, Thailand
How much would you pay for a Charcoal BBQ Buffet in Krabi, Thailand? I paid 119 Thai Baht (RM 12 / US$ 4) for it. How did we do it?
We understand Thailand is popular with 99 Thai Baht (RM 10 / US$ 3) BBQ Buffet. The same applies to Krabi Thailand. However, due to recent increase of food prices, it is no longer 99 Thai Baht but 119 Thai Baht.
To get to know more about this places, we asked the locals and …

The Four Island Tour Excursion of Krabi

The Four Island Tour Excursion of Krabi
Krabi has been one of the popular tourists spot in Southern Thailand in recent years. A favourite holiday destination by the Scandinavians, Krabi is considered as the next best thing after Phuket Island.  In Aonang, streets are filled with motels, hotels, bars, restaurants, massage centers and tourists. Aonang is a better option than Krabi town as the jetties are located there and there are more hotels and restaurants to choose from. One of the best part of staying in Aonang is the beautiful sunset …

Busses loaded with tourist flocked to the restaurant to try out both traditional Chinese delicacies. As believed, bird nest soup is very nutritious and Thailand has the most affordable prices in …

Raya Thai Cuisine Phuket Town: Sino-Thai Food

Raya Thai Cuisine Phuket Town: Sino-Thai Food
My last trip to Phuket, I went to the Raya Thai Cuisine for lunch in Phuket Town courtesy of Tourism Authority of Thailand. I was there on a medical tourism trip with Indonesian blogger Wahyu.

The restaurant itself is a beauty. It sets in the old Sino-colonial building which many mistaken it as a historical residence rather than a restaurant. Walking into the restaurant is like walking into an old house with a couple of tables set beautifully.

The vintage design includes the floor tiles, the …

Beach Terrace Hotel Krabi Review

Beach Terrace Hotel Krabi Review
Like many first time travelers, I was wondering where to stay in Krabi. It is better to stay in Krabi town or the Aonang area? The distance between both places takes around half an hour ride and both has its own advantages and disadvantages.
We prefer to stay in Aonang area due to its close proximity with the sea. Okay, we admit. We loved the beach and the sunset in Aonang. Although the streets of Aonang might be always busy and probably noisy to some but we …
