Krabi — Ao Nang, Railay & the 4 Islands
≈ 165 km east of Phuket · 2.5–3 hours by road
Krabi province faces Phuket across Phang Nga Bay, about 2.5–3 hours away by road. Ao Nang is its tour hub, Railay its climbing-and-beach peninsula reachable only by longtail, and the 4 Islands (Poda, Chicken Island, Tup and Phra Nang Cave Beach) its signature day trip.
Cyber Tour operates Krabi day tours for guests staying in Ao Nang, Klong Muang and Railay, and connects Phuket-based clients with private transfers and Phi Phi crossings from the Krabi side.
How to get to Krabi
- Private car or minivan from Phuket in about 2.5–3 hours via Phang Nga; fly into Krabi International (KBV), 30–40 minutes from Ao Nang.
- In season, ferries and speedboats connect Phuket (Rassada) with Krabi via Phi Phi; Railay is reached by longtail from Ao Nang.
November to April for calm seas and the full 4-Islands and Hong Island program; May–October is quieter with weather-dependent longtail departures.
Similar to Phuket: dry Nov–Apr, wettest Sep–Oct; the Krabi coast is partly sheltered by Phang Nga Bay.

Local knowledge that matters
The 4 Islands trip is sold by longtail (half or full day) or speedboat; longtails are weather-dependent in the green season.
Hong Island on the Krabi side has the calmest lagoon swimming in the region — a good family alternative to Phi Phi.
Phuket → Krabi private transfers take about 2.5–3 hours; combine with a Krabi day tour for guests relocating between the two.
Railay is reached by longtail from Ao Nang (10–15 minutes); luggage transfers for Railay hotels need to be arranged in advance.
