All day on a Bus Penang MY > Krabi Thailand

Thursday 19/5/11 Georgetown >Thailand border > Hat Yai > change to Govt bus > Krabi. 8hrs. Approx.


We have an early start 5.00am pickup all good, a tour of the city before dawn collecting passengers. Thai Border at 7.00am and it is busy. Takes an hour to cross. Make Hat Yai and connect with the Govt bus for Krabi on our way by 9.00am.


Buses can be fun! But the bus we had had a dumb jockey who loved Thai music LOUD. Unfortunately for us we were sitting in front of a huge sub woofer in this bus all the way 5 hours. Arriving at our hotel immediatley dug out the panadol.

Pam admiring the view from our room

Our stay in Krabi is at the City Seaview Hotel on the bank of the Krabi River. Superb view over the river with long boats and fishing boats plying the river. The hotel is a classic colonial style with a beaut verandah and solid timer furniture.
