Getting from Krabi Airport to Koh Lanta is a two-hour-plus journey, and doing it independently usually means a shared minivan that leaves only when full and stops repeatedly along the way. This private transfer takes you door to door — Krabi Airport (KBV) straight to your Koh Lanta hotel, or back again for departure — in your own vehicle.
The route runs south through Khlong Thom and across the bridges that now link Koh Lanta Noi and Koh Lanta Yai to the mainland, so there is no car-ferry wait. Expect around two to two and a half hours depending on where your resort sits on the island.
Insider Tip: Lanta’s beaches stretch a long way down the west coast — Long Beach (Phra Ae) in the north is closer than Kantiang Bay or the national park at the southern tip, which add 20 to 30 minutes. Give your exact hotel when booking so the driver and the fare are right.
Frequently asked questions
How long is the transfer from Krabi Airport to Koh Lanta?
Around two to two and a half hours, depending where on the island your hotel is. The road runs south through Khlong Thom and over the bridges to Koh Lanta — no car ferry is involved any more.
Is there still a ferry to Koh Lanta?
Not for this transfer. Bridges now connect Koh Lanta Noi and Koh Lanta Yai to the mainland, so the drive is continuous. The old vehicle ferries have been replaced.
Does it work for departures too?
Yes — the service runs in both directions, Krabi Airport to your hotel on arrival and your hotel back to the airport for departure.
Why not take a shared minivan?
Shared minivans are cheaper but leave only when full and make multiple drop-offs, stretching the trip. A private transfer is direct, on your schedule, at a fixed price for the vehicle.
