Day 1

Checked into hotel - The Marina Phuket.Its a beautiful hotel with a roof top pool and bar.The view is amazing from here. Then got ready for the Tiger Kingdom. Hired a scooter and left for the first destination.It takes so much courage to be clicked with tigers..when there are around 7-8 tigers roaming around you, although trainers were there. It was an amazing experience. Next we went for Go karting, which is just next to the tiger kingdom.Then spent some quiet moments at the Patong beach and in the end went to the famous Bangla Street. It is a completely different world in the night.

Aakash with tigers all around.....

Day 6

It's the last day in Thailand and also the day to explore beautiful Krabi, which is comparatively less crowded, more tranquil and picuresque. We booked a 4 island day tour, including railay beach,chicken island, poda island , tab island and thale waek and this tour was also including snorkelling , lunch and refreshments. A speed boat took us to Railay beach from Aonang beach. Railay beach has high limestone cliffs, which makes it a very popular rock climbing spot. Then was time to do snorkelling near chicken island. After that, they took us to Poda island, where the tour operator had arranged lunch for us,  we played in the clear blue waters and relaxed for a while.Lastly we covered Thale waek, also known as separated sea, which is one of the most fascinating and relatively unseen highlights of Thailand. The white sand and limestone beach separates the sea during lowest tide of the day, marvellously connecting  the two tiny islands, Koh Tap and Koh Mor. We spent some quiet time there ,absorbing into the beauty of the place. Then was the time to go back to Krabi, from where we took a bus for Phuket, checked into our hotel- Samkong Place.Next day early morning, we had to board the flight back to Delhi.
