Today I bring you with me on a beautiful tour in Thailand! We are going to explore Krabi, Ao Nang and the amazing Phi Phi islands, including Phi Phi Don, Maya Bay, Pi Leh Bay (Pi Leh Lagoon) and so much more...
Should you visit Phi Phi Islands? Are they too busy? too many tourists? how they look right now?
I will give you those answers in today's vlog.
Sit back, relax and enjoy this video. ;)
Best,
Gabi

When I went there in Dec 2021, Maya Bay was still closed and there were about 5 boats in Pileh Lagoon. It was so nice so clean so private but I felt for the locals. Coming out of Covid, you could see how thankful they felt seeing tourists coming back.

Looks so nice there as always. shame about the restrictions at Maya bay but they had to do something. Funny to see MacDonald's and burger king on phi phi - that used to be such a budget backpacker island and now the big corporations made it in there.

I went wo Phuket for the whole of October in 2011 and I also went on a day trip to Phi Phi island while I was there and it was spectacular and as beautiful as it looks in this video. When I visited in 2011 they still allowed the tourist boats to pull into Maya Bay but I think the new system is much better - it was overrun with tourists and I contributed to that so I completely understand why you now have to reach the island around the back of Maya Bay. This place really is paradise so I understand why so many tourists want to visit, I was a tourist too and I would recommend it to everyone but there's a balance to strike between the much needed tourism which Thailand relies on so heavily and the delicate ecosystem and biodiversity of the islands - I think with the new system they have got that balance right. Thanks for posting this video, it bought back a lot of happy memories for me.

koh Phi Phi has developed a lot over the years. Ive only been once back in 1991 and even then it was pretty busy I remember catching a small ship over from Phukhet and it was totally full of tourists. I'm pretty sure there was no accommodation on the island in those days and only local Thai shops and restaurants - very cool though. Not sure if you looked at the back beach? But it is completely different to the main beach. I snorkeled at both beaches and the back beach was full of big sea slugs at least 10 inches long! Scary! I look forward to checking out your next video trip Chok Dee khup

I visited back in 2015. It wasn't too crowded but I stayed at a hotel on the opposite side from the village and it could only be reached by boat provided by the hotel. You could hike over the mountain to the village which I did, but the trail through the jungle was poorly marked and that made it quite an adventure. The hotel boat also provided transport back and forth to the village for free. The hotel featured bamboo huts built on stilts over the beach. You could hear the tide coming in beneath the bamboo floors. It was US$45 per night for peace, quiet, privacy and delicious food prepared by the family who owned and operated the hotel. The hotel also took us to Maya Bay in their own Thai longboat.

I've got family coming to visit me in Thailand next week. I made the decision for us not to go to Phi phi because of the mass tourism. I went a year ago and I felt like I was on a conveyor belt in a factory. The speedboat to and from Phi Phi was horrible as well as it was choppy the whole way and I got sea sick (the effects of which could still be felt whilst walking around Maya bay). I think spending a night there is the way to go rather than a day trip. We will go to Racha Yai and Racha Noi instead.

One thing that is constant in Thai tourist areas is change. I haven't been to Phi Phi since '92 the main town was just a few market stalls and Maya bay was completely empty. It's still possible to find small coves with bungalows but it used to cost us About $10 per day including meals.
