First off, I'd like to say thank f'in God for Dramamine and that I officially change my last opinion of the worst ride of my life. Our 3 hour ferry ride to Koh Tao was quite possibly the worst experience of my 22 years of life. ... Read more >

We got to the island of Koh Phi Phi from Koh Lanta by a nice 1.5 hour ferry ride. We walked off the pier and instantly knew this place would be much more lively than our last! There were tons of little shops and people wandering around everywhere so ... Read more >
