Frequently Asked Questions — Koh Lanta to Krabi

How do I get from Koh Lanta to Krabi?+

From Koh Lanta to Krabi, the options split by destination:

To Krabi Airport (KBV): SmartEnPlus offers a private door-to-door transfer with Dou Lay Krabi Transportation. Pickup is from any Koh Lanta hotel and the driver takes you directly to the airport in about 2 hours, including the short car ferry crossing at Hua Hin Pier. Vehicles include Sedan (up to 2 passengers), SUV (up to 4), and VAN (up to 8).

To Krabi Town or Klong Jilad Pier: the most common option is a shared minivan (such as Jijie Tour or Phantip 1970) with the car ferry included, which takes 2 to 4 hours and costs ฿350–450 per person. Between November and April, high-speed ferries also run from Saladan Pier on Koh Lanta to Klong Jilad Pier in Krabi Town in about 1 hour, with operators such as Tigerline, from ฿400–650 per person. These are booked through 12Go Asia or direct with the operators rather than on SmartEnPlus.

How much does a transfer from Koh Lanta to Krabi cost?+

Prices for Koh Lanta to Krabi depend on whether you go to the airport or into Krabi Town:

  • Dou Lay Krabi Transportation (SmartEnPlus) to Krabi Airport: Sedan ฿2,000 per vehicle (max 2 passengers), SUV ฿2,100 per vehicle (max 4), VAN ฿2,600 per vehicle (max 8). These are per-vehicle prices, not per person, so they are the most economical option for couples and groups.
  • Shared minivan + car ferry (booked via 12Go or direct): ฿350–450 per person, including the Hua Hin Pier car ferry crossing. Runs year-round.
  • High-speed ferry Saladan Pier to Klong Jilad Pier (November–April): ฿400–650 per person with operators such as Tigerline.
  • Private taxi Koh Lanta to anywhere in Krabi: around ฿2,000–3,000 per vehicle, available through local operators and 12Go Asia.

Note that Krabi Airport (KBV) and Krabi Town are about 13.5 km apart, so confirm which Krabi destination your booking serves before paying.

Where does the ferry from Koh Lanta arrive in Krabi?+

It depends on which product you book:

  • Dou Lay private transfer to Krabi Airport (SmartEnPlus): drops you directly at Krabi Airport (KBV), which is about 13.5 km northeast of Krabi Town. From the airport you can fly onward to Bangkok, Phuket, or other domestic destinations, or take a taxi into Krabi Town.
  • Shared minivan + car ferry (Jijie Tour, Phantip 1970, etc.): drops you at your Krabi Town hotel or at the Krabi Bus Terminal. The route crosses one car ferry at Hua Hin Pier on the mainland, then drives the rest of the way on paved road.
  • High-speed ferry Saladan to Klong Jilad Pier (Tigerline, November to April): arrives at Klong Jilad Pier in central Krabi Town, on the Krabi River. From there you can walk to nearby hotels, take a local taxi, or connect onward to Ao Nang or Railay by speedboat.

If your final stop is Krabi Town or Klong Jilad Pier, the minivan-plus-ferry or high-speed ferry are typically the most direct options. If your final stop is the airport, the Dou Lay private transfer is the simplest one-stop solution.
