First and Business Class passengers can also take advantage of our complimentary Chauffeur-drive service. You'll be picked up in a luxury vehicle and enjoy a smooth, comfortable ride to Heathrow - from locations within 70 miles, or farther for an additional charge.

Krabi, located on Thailand’s stunning southwest coast, is renowned for its dramatic limestone cliffs, crystal-clear waters and laid-back atmosphere.

Trip inspiration

What to do in Krabi

  • Hike the Ngon Nak Nature Trail
    To the west of Krabi province, the Ngon Nak Nature Trail – otherwise known as Dragon’s Crest Mountain - is a rewarding hike through thick forest. Start at Tub Kaek Beach and venture into the spectacular Hat Noppharat Thara National Park, gradually ascending above the canopy to reach breathtaking rocky viewpoints. Look out over the bay to spot Hong Island before turning inland, where vast limestone cliffs punctuate the greenery.
  • Venture to Bamboo Island
    Bamboo Island, also known as Koh Pai, is a diminutive, almost heart‑shaped island that’s part of the Phi Phi archipelago. Its remote location in the Andaman Sea, combined with lush vegetation and glorious beaches, make it a dreamy escape from the mainland. Bring your snorkel on the 40‑minute boat ride from Krabi and observe the abundance of marine life that thrives in its surrounding waters.
  • Watch a fire show
    Spectacular fire dancing shows take place across much of Thailand, and Krabi offers some of the country’s best. When the sun is setting, head to Ao Nang Beach and look out for mesmerising spinning wheels of fire illuminating the inky sky. Watch daring performers stir up the crowd in exhilarating performances choreographed to music.
