These few areas are constantly packed with travelers from all over the world. So how do Krabi tours save your money and still get the best from your holiday in Thailand?
Eat the Local Way
A fancy restaurant doesn't absolutely guarantee the quality of food. Following the rule of thumb, if there's a audience in a specific food home, then the meals there ought to be good. After all, the locals know best.
The locals can spot a foreigner easily particularly if you aren't of Asian descent. Additionally, it is common for them to try their fortune and jack their sales cost when they visit a potential tourist-customer. So do not be deceived and set your mediation skills to check. Never settle for the initial price they provide you - constantly attempt to lose or pretend to walk away if they deny because it's quite probable they will call for you with a price that is way lower than the first one. But of course, you also must be reasonable at the price you quote.
Go During Off-Season
If you visit Thailand between Jan and May or July to Nov, odds are you can get a complimentary upgrade to larger rooms without needing to top up. Sometimes, hotel rooms are also cheaper than stated.
Walk or Rent a Bike
Forget taxis! If the place is near, then simply walk there rather than flagging a cab. The roads of Krabi and Phuket are always full of shops so it is not a truly lonely and dull walk. Otherwise, rent a bicycle. Renting a bike is quite common in Thailand and economical also. If they do not, then just walk out and you'll definitely see at least one motorbike rental store on the market. | | |
