Getting To Siboya Bungalows
:: So I'm at the Krabi airport... now what?
1) If you have pre-arranged transport from the airport... someone will meet you to take you to Siboya Bungalows.
-
Please be sure to make prior arrangements when booking if you want to be met at the airport and taken to Siboya Bungalows (cost 1000 baht for 1 or 2 persons )
-
You will go by private car from the airport to Laem Hin, then a walk on private long-tail ferry will take you (10 min) across to Laem Soma on Ko Siboya. Here a truck will meet you to take you to the Bungalows.
2) If you arrive in Krabi and want to go to Siboya Bungalows on your own, you should go to the Siboya Office in Krabi town.

The Siboya Office in Krabi Town has moved... (see photos above)
The new address is 31 Chaofa Road across from the Krabi-Loma Hotel. -
Tell the staff which songtaew (local bus) you want to take to Siboya Bungalows. They leave twice daily to Laem Hin at 11:00am and 4:00pm (Sundays only 4:00pm). The one way cost is 100 baht/pp. The trip to Laem Hin will take about an hour.
From Laem Hin there ia always a public walk on long-tail ferry to take you across to Laem Soma on Ko Siboya. (no schedule... they go when they have passengers) The cost should be about 20-40 baht/pp.
-
If you told the people at the office in Krabi... a truck should meet you on the other side to take you to the 10Km Siboya Bungalows (50 baht/pp).
-
If you arrive here on your own (without going into Krabi) then you'll have to find someone with a cell phone to call the Bungalows or hitch-hike on a motor cycle... everyone one the island is very friendly just ask... and don't forget to tip!
