VISITING PHI PHI ISLANDS (DO NOT MAKE THIS MISTAKE)
As we make our way through Thailand, we decided to stop at one of the most visited islands in the country. The Phi Phi islands are part of Krabi province, and they are heaven on earth. If you love tropical weather, pristine beaches, and water activities then Phi Phi is the perfect place to wind down and relax. In this video, we show you guys a tour of this beautiful island and show you what there is to do. We tour the beaches, talk about the various tours, show you where to eat, and go kayaking.

Love your channel guys. Best part is how you both embrace each culture you visit with respect by being kind, always trying the local food, and you sum things up with great information. Keep it up! I’m about to leave Australia for Asia, going for at least a year. I can’t wait! 👍🇦🇺

Awesome and yes... don't mess with the ocean. Getting too far out is really hazardous. But don't panic. Keep making your way back in. Those urchins are treacherous.

There are 3 routes you can take to the View Point. 1) Is the Jungle Route. It looked like that may have been the route you were following at the start. I haven't taken this route for about 5 years but involves some trekking through the jungle along dirt paths. 2) Is the Road Route. This is mostly via the newly built road connecting the villages to the pier built during covid. This route is by far the longest and will take 3+ hours via the villages. This seems to be the route you ended up taking. Still watching the video but waiting until you find and realise the Step Route !! 3) Is the Steps Route. There are straight steps going straight up to Viewpoint 1 with a few stops to rest along the way. This is by far the quickest and direct route but it is a hard climb! Coming back down is much easier! (About 20-30 minutes coming down). There are 4 Viewpoints to visit altogether just a short hike from each other. You should be aware of the wildlife on the island from monkeys, large lizards, mosquitos and scorpians. Which ever route you take you should set out prepared with water and a first aid kit.
awesome view from the top !

You guys are fun and adventurous. Glad to see you both enjoying yourselves on the beautiful paradise like island. But you are inexperienced. When I saw you both going out on the kayaks without any life vests on, my heart began pumping hard. What if the waters get real rough with strong waves and flip the kayaks over when you are far out and out of sight?? The waters look beautiful but can be dangerous. Luckily for you the accident and damage was limited. Real out to sea kayaking or canoeing need training that include survival training. The operator should provide the life vests and rightly the canoeing should be restricted to within the bay unless you are experienced. Thank god you are safe. There are two paths up to the viewpoint. The one you both took is very long and tiring. The other is steeper but way shorter and the preferred for most. Lastly monitor lizards however big and shy creatures which will run away from humans, not attack them. There has never been any incident where humans are harmed by them.
