Tour Overview & Description
Iconic Coastal Day Trip, Railay West, Phra Nang Princess Shrine, Limestone Karsts & Longtail Transit
Railay is a world unto itself: a secluded tropical peninsula cut off from the Krabi mainland by impassable, soaring limestone mountains, accessible solely by sea. It feels more like a magical offshore island than a mainland coast.
Hop on a scenic longtail boat shuttle from Ao Nang across emerald waves. Stroll along Railay West's sweeping crescent of white sand, wander through shaded limestone pathways linking to Railay East, and discover the mysterious stalactite-draped Princess Cave (Tham Phra Nang), revered by local sea gypsies and fishermen for good fortune.
