Wat Tham Sua - Tiger Cave Temple

One of the most popular excursions in Krabi town and very easy and cheap to visit. Either you catch a songthaew by yourself or you buy a ticket. If you buy a ticket, they will pick you up from the hotel and send you back. You will have 2 hours to climb the stairs. Tickets are 200 thb 2 way. If you catch a songthaew by yourself, it will cost you 140 thb 2 way. To climb to the top, it will take you between 20-45 minutes depending on your stamina. To reach the temple at the top you need to climb 1237 stairs. My last walk took me 23 minutes, but I was quite tired and soaking wet with sweat. Bring a bottle of water, you will need it. Once at the top, you will have an excellent view over Krabi. Beware of the monkeys, they like to steel stuff. Even if they are very cute you should not try to pet them because if you get bitten you need to go to hospital and get a series of rabies shots. Walking down is of course much easier and should not take you more than 30 minutes. Some of the stair are quite high and steep and you will feel it in your knees.
