How much is the boat to Phi Phi Islands? This is the key question and the answer varies depending on your route to the island (Phuket, Krabi or Koh Lanta). Then choice is about simplicity and convenience. A prepaid transfer from the hotel or airport to the pier and subsequent ferry ticket is so much less inconvenient than organizing taxis or queuing at the ferry port.

The key point of how much is the boat to Phi Phi Island is about getting things done in Thailand over clicking a few buttons on a Phi Phi ferry website. A few moments organizing your travel arrangements is so less time consuming than sitting down at the travel desk at your hotel and then lining up and negotiating your ticket price at the pier.

'Negotiating' a ticket price might seem a curious comment but some people pay twice what others can be charged. Some agents on the beach front of Patong Beach might charge a lot more than those agents just 40 meters further inland. This price might be lowered if you are in a group of 4 or more. Similarly there are costs differences for different Nations, pricing varying depending on what the local economy believes each nation will pay.
