Ferry Ao Nang/Krabi Town → Phi Phi → Phuket scenic but long (5–7 hrs, 800–1,200 baht, seasonal). Direct minivan Krabi → Phuket 3–4 hrs, 300–450 baht — faster, less pretty. Green season ferries cancel more. Luggage on van easier. Book travel shops Ao Nang road. Not both same day as tour. Ferry fun if not seasick; van if tight schedule.

Phi Phi ferry stopover night — break journey, less vomit risk.

Van air-con cold — bring layer.
