Itinerary

DAY 1: Arrival 

Touch down at Krabi International Airport and transfer to your accommodation in scenic Ao Nang. After settling in, explore local shops for essentials before joining a welcome meeting. We’ll go over safety protocols, gear setup, climbing preferences, and Thai cultural etiquette. End the day with a delicious welcome dinner featuring authentic Thai dishes and a trip overview, followed by an optional sunset stroll along Ao Nang Beach.

DAY 3: Climbing Day 2

After breakfast, head out by boat to a new crag showcasing vibrant orange and red limestone walls with tufa, pockets, and natural shade. After a solid morning on the wall, choose between climbing more routes or a refreshing ocean swim. Evening is yours—opt for a relaxing Thai massage or explore local dining spots at your own pace.

DAY 5: Climbing Day 3

Re-energized from your rest day, return to the rock for technical routes and optional multi-pitch climbs. Expect compact limestone, delicate footwork, and rewarding challenges. After lunch, the group splits by skill level—advanced climbers tackle ambitious lines, while others enjoy fun, accessible routes. Regroup for dinner at a cozy restaurant and reflect on personal progress and group highlights.

DAY 7: Flex Day

Choose a group adventure:

  • Option 1: Return to the crag for one last push on your routes—send your project or just enjoy your final climbs.

  • Option 2: Opt for a relaxed rest day with a trip to the Emerald Pool, hot springs, and the panoramic Tiger Cave Temple (prepare for 1,237 steps!).


Wrap up the day with a festive farewell dinner and a toast to new friendships and epic climbs.

DAY 2: Climbing Day 1

Fuel up with breakfast before taking a short boat ride to your first climbing destination. Ease into the trip with three-dimensional limestone with jugs and tufas, perfect for warming up. Enjoy a picnic lunch with ocean views, then move on to more diverse routes in the afternoon. Return to Ao Nang for dinner at the lively night market—swap stories and favorite routes with fellow climbers.

DAY 4: Rest Day

Take a break from the rock and dive into Thailand’s cultural side. Morning options include kayaking through mangroves or a hands-on Thai cooking class. In the afternoon, choose between snorkeling, island-hopping, or relaxing on a beach. Gather for a scenic sunset dinner, then (if nature allows) experience the glow of bioluminescent plankton. Cap the night with optional fire shows or live music on the beach.

DAY 6: Climbing Day 4

Dive into Tonsai’s iconic terrain with steep, overhanging routes full of stalactite features. Today focuses on pushing your limits. Enjoy an extended lunch and rest break before returning to finish what you started. Celebrate the day’s sends at a climber-favorite restaurant with hearty food and good vibes.

DAY 8: Departure Day

Enjoy a relaxed breakfast and soak in the last moments of tropical paradise. Spend free time shopping for souvenirs or taking a final beach walk before your transfer to Krabi Airport. Say your goodbyes, exchange contacts, and dream about your next climbing escape.
