    Koh Lanta is a very family oriented island, very suitable for family holiday. In my opinion Krabi best kept secret are Ko Po/Ko Jum. Satun region has even more small island that is isn’t touristic at all.

      Thanks for sharing your insight! We completely agree-Koh Lanta is fantastic for families, with such a welcoming vibe. Ko Po and Ko Jum sound incredible, definitely hidden gems worth exploring! We’ll have to add the Satun region to our list too!.Thanks for the tips! ❤️

    Metal chopsticks are definitely not the one!! Wooden ones all the way! I'm so glad you got a set and lovely that it's personalised 🥰 Hope Luke's ankle is ok! Beautiful sunsets, views, beaches and walks (if not a little too many steps haha) You've made me want to visit 100% adding it to my list! Ashleigh your 3 drinks made me laugh... perfect... I'm always a 3 drink person haha! Keep them up both xxx

    What I liked most about this Video compared to other people's Videos I watched, was THIS Video You showed yourself Drinking Beer and Eating Sausage and Bacon on a Muslim Island. 😁 I saw a Sign "Very Cold Beer" 😁 Yeah, nobody else did the Pet Shop, I might check it out. I like that you guys showed more than one place to eat and talked about the Prices. 😁

      Thanks so much for watching and commenting! 🎉 We are so glad you liked the video!! The Koh Lanta animal rescue was such a highlight for us! Something we wish we knew about sooner, and definitely a reason for us to go back! We’d absolutely recommend the cooking class they offer it looked and smelt amazing! Thanks again for supporting us ❤️

    Cool video ! Did you find that repellant spray is enough to keep the mosquitos away ? Any issues with snakes when hiking through dense vegetation, or jellyfish when swimming ?

    • @Ashleighandluke
      @Ashleighandluke  2 месяца назад +1

      Thanks for watching ☺️ The repellent spray you can get in most shops we found very effective, it’s also in the 7Eleven’s and quite cheap (although depending how hot it is you may need to reapply every now and then). We had zero issues with snakes, but we did see a lot of jellyfish in South Thailand, we’d definitely recommend getting accommodation with a pool so you can worry free swim when you need to cool off! 😊 hope that helps!

    Is koh lanta not too quiet?
    We going in 2 weeks after ao nang and phi phi to take a rest from crowded beaches and boat tours. Is that a good chill area or the island is almost too quiet/boring?

    • @Ashleighandluke
      @Ashleighandluke  2 месяца назад +1

      Thank you so much for watching and the kind words! 😊 We didn’t find Ko Lanta too quiet at all - it was a perfect spot to chill and unwind after busier spots like Ao Nang and Phi Phi 🏝️. We’d definitely recommend checking out the cooking class 👩‍🍳, exploring the Old Town 🏘️, and visiting the national park 🌳. We found 3 days was just right, but we do wish we’d known about the cooking class at the Lanta Animal Sanctuary 🐾 sooner so we could have booked it. Hope you have an amazing time! ✨

    do you need international license to rent a bike?

    • @Ashleighandluke
      @Ashleighandluke  2 месяца назад +1

      Hey! Thanks for the question, you do need an international license to drive legally in Thailand. We’d definitely recommend checking out the government website as it has some great advice that we found useful. I definitely think people rent without it, and it’s not often checked when renting, but it’s not a chance we wanted to take if stopped by the police. 👮
