Hi Steemians!

Today i will tell you about one more amazing place in Thailand - Phi Phi islands: Phi Phi Don and Phi Phi Leh.

You can get there by ferry: the distance from Phuket to the island is only 48 km, and from Krabi - 42 km.

We bought tickets in advance at the pier of Phuket. In the same day it's impossible to go on the island because of the large number of tourists so we had to wait 1 day.

The cheapest ticket cost 600 BTH.

We also used this site - 12go.asia to check prices for speedboats, aircrafts and so on.

Phi Phi Don is the main island, there are many shops, hotels and tourists souvenirs.

On a smaller island, Phi Phi Lay, there is not such a thing. This is a place for fans of wildlife and diving.

Soooo we decided to visit both of them 😉.

Staying in Thailand is not expensive, even on islands. We often were booking accommodation on agoda.com because there are a lot of discounts for good hotels. Here we booked our bungalow for 500 BTH per night.

As soon as we arrived, we started looking for our bungalow. We found it very quickly, because the Thais are always happy to help tourists.

At the reception, we met a friendly girl. She offered us free bananas and water (here it's available the whole day and night so you will not die of hunger in any case 😁😂😂).

Also you can find all usefull info here.

It's time to settle in our bungalow. Here's how it looks:

The bungalow is made of bamboo and the leaves of coconut palms are placed on the roof.

It's very hot inside the bungalow so be sure that there's definitely a ventilator.

We had this one 😁😂😂:

Instead of a bed you will get a huge mattress on the floor but i must say it's very comfortable.

From the ceiling to the floor, a grid is stretched so mosquitoes don't have the opportunity to bother you.

At first glance everything was super, until we got into the bathroom.

This is a toilet and a shower cabin. As you
see on the photo, it's completely absent😂😂.

We wanted to live in exotic conditions and we got it so we don't regret about anything.

It was a new experience and I would say honestly, here I had the strongest dream because it was very comfortable to sleep in a mattress.

On the territory of bungalows we met cats.

They are here everywhere: they sleep where they want and do what they want. Thais love animals and cats use it 😁😂😂.

Our bungalows are located on a small hill, and from there opens a magnificent sea view.

Sort:  

you're very brave to go there
if you're still there I won't tell you why
if you're planning to explore another place I would suggest Koh Tao
or Koh Samui but Koh Tao would offer you a better option and much peace and quiet
Stay safe and have fun!

I'm home now:)) So you can tell me hahaaa. I guess you are talking about big cockroaches that run there😂😂😂.
You was right, after this place we came to Samui island. It was my favorite place in Thai. I didn't have time to go to Koh Tao and Koh Chang but i wanted :( It will be for next time to do!

okay then
it's not the roach
Phi Phi had the biggest tsunami that killed thousands of people some time ago I can't remember the time
a movie about it was made ... something with "tsunami" on the title
Phi Phi was more beautiful before it got struck
but at least you're home safe so it's alright!

Ohhhh yeahhh.. i saw many signs with the words "In the case of tsunami run to the highest point on the island"😬😬😬.
You know so many things about Thailand, you visited this place too?
