I made a reservation to relax because I had nothing else to do. The pickup was good, and I had a 120-minute Thai massage. My legs were so tired that they were sore. Also, the atmosphere of the shop itself was very nice. At the end, they gave me tea.

It was really fun and great. This is the best in Krabi except for leisure sports. They explained about elephants, gave feeding experience, took pictures together at the riverside, marched to the tap water, and gave us coconut drinks and watermelon. I think it would have been worth 100,000 won.

Everything went smoothly. The journey from open-aired van pickup to boat to islands and snorkeling was fun and enjoyable. The lunch on beach we sat on picnic tables, and food was adequate and delicious - rice, 1 meat, fried egg & fruits (pineapple & watermelon slices). We enjoyed and highly recommended to anyone who is holidaying in Krabi.
