Full Description
Krabi Airport to Tubkaek Beach transfer: the easiest way to get there
The best way to get from Krabi Airport to Tubkaek Beach depends on what you are carrying and who you are travelling with, but for almost everyone arriving with luggage, family or after a long flight, a pre-booked private transfer is the answer. Haqqi Tours' Krabi Airport to Tubkaek Beach airport transfer is met at arrivals, priced in advance and driven by someone who does this route every week.
This page covers everything travellers ask about the Krabi Airport to Tubkaek Beach route: how far it is and how long it takes, whether an airport taxi, public transport or a private transfer is the better choice, what Tubkaek Beach is like, what to see there and where to stay, where you meet your driver at Krabi Airport, which vehicles we use and how the booking works.
Arriving at Krabi Airport (KBV)
Krabi International Airport (KBV) is about 15 km from Krabi town and 30-40 minutes from Ao Nang; Koh Lanta is about two hours with the car ferry.
A little knowledge of Krabi Airport makes the arrival calmer. Note which terminal or hall your flight uses, keep your phone charged for the WhatsApp thread, and expect the driver to be exactly where the confirmation said - by the arrivals exit with a name board, or at the airport's designated meeting point. From there it is a short walk to the car and the Krabi Airport to Tubkaek Beach drive begins.
Searches for "KBV to Tubkaek Beach" or "KBV airport transfer" land here for a reason: KBV is the airport code for Krabi Airport, and this is the private-car service that connects it with Tubkaek Beach.
Krabi Airport to Tubkaek Beach at a glance
Service: private transfer, your own vehicle from Krabi Airport to Tubkaek Beach, door to door. Vehicles: Sedan (1–3 passengers), Minivan (1–7 passengers) and Sprinter (8–13 passengers) - Mercedes, Volkswagen, Ford Transit and Peugeot Traveller models, air-conditioned, with room for luggage. Price: fixed for the whole vehicle and agreed on WhatsApp before you travel, tolls and waiting included, nothing to pay the driver on the day. Meeting: at Krabi Airport, at the point named in your confirmation, with flight tracking so a delay moves the pickup. Booking: the form on this page or a WhatsApp message; confirmation in writing within minutes, in Arabic or English.
Taxi or private transfer from Krabi Airport to Tubkaek Beach?
The airport taxi fare from Krabi Airport to Tubkaek Beach is unpredictable: meters, night tariffs, tolls and traffic all move it, and you only learn the total at the door. A pre-booked Krabi Airport to Tubkaek Beach transfer is the opposite - one fixed cost for the vehicle, however long the drive takes, with the price agreed before your trip.
For one traveller with a small bag, a taxi or public transport can be a fair choice. For two or more people, a family with children, or anyone with real luggage, a private transfer is normally the cheapest way to get from Krabi Airport to Tubkaek Beach per person - and by far the easiest. Public transport to Tubkaek Beach involves changes, tickets and stairs; a private car goes to the hotel door.
There is also the question of trust. Our drivers know the hotels of Tubkaek Beach, work on a fixed price, and never take a detour or add a "special fare" at the end. Your booking is confirmed by a real person on a WhatsApp desk that works in Arabic and English, and that same desk is reachable throughout your trip.
Public transport from Krabi Airport to Tubkaek Beach: is there a bus, train or metro?
Public transport from Krabi Airport runs mainly into Krabi itself: krabi has no rail or metro; airport buses, shared minivans and taxi counters serve Ao Nang and Krabi Town and suit one traveller with a light bag, but a private car is simpler for families, for Klong Muang and Tubkaek, for the piers, and for the long roads to Khao Sok, Khao Lak and Phuket. Reaching Tubkaek Beach from there means a further connection with your luggage, which is where a door-to-door car saves the most time and effort.
Many of our guests have tried the public route into Tubkaek Beach once and booked the car ever after. The difference is not only speed but effort: no ticket machines in a foreign language, no stairs with suitcases, no working out the last mile to the hotel. A private Krabi Airport to Tubkaek Beach transfer starts at the arrivals door and ends at the reception desk, and the fixed price covers the whole vehicle.
About Tubkaek Beach
Tubkaek Beach is on Krabi's north-western coast, about 40 km from Krabi Airport and beyond Klong Muang. Tubkaek is a quiet, curving bay of light sand backed by trees and framed by limestone hills on the north-western coast of Krabi. It is a resort beach in the true sense: a small number of large, well-spaced hotels and villas sit on the shore, and there is little else, so the mood is private and restful. The water is calm for swimming, sunsets are wide and open, and the low-tide flats invite long walks. Ao Nang and its restaurants are roughly 20 minutes away by car, while the mangrove bay of Ao Thalane lies further north along the same coast.
Things to do in Tubkaek Beach
The reasons most visitors come to Tubkaek Beach: Spacious luxury resorts and villas, A private, unhurried bay, Limestone hills behind the beach, Calm water and open sunsets and Mangrove kayaking nearby at Ao Thalane. Arriving by private transfer means you start on them rested, with the luggage already at the hotel.
Krabi itself is within reach for a day: Four Islands boat trip, Hong Islands and Mangrove kayaking at Ao Thalane - the same WhatsApp desk arranges the car there and back.
Where to stay in Tubkaek Beach
Hotels and places to stay in Tubkaek Beach: Beachfront resorts, Hillside pool villas and Boutique hotels near the beach road. Tell us yours when you book and the driver plans the last few streets before you land.
Most guests dine at their resort, so confirm your hotel's exact address and a contact number before arrival; the last stretch of road is narrow.
Meeting your driver at Krabi Airport
Where you meet your driver depends on Krabi Airport: a set meeting point inside arrivals, a designated exit, or a name board held just after customs. Rather than guess, we send the exact instructions with your WhatsApp confirmation - the meeting place, the driver's name and number, and what to do if you cannot see them. If you choose flight tracking, your driver is at arrivals the minute you land.
Up to 60 minutes of waiting is included (90 minutes at some airports), and if you are delayed at baggage or passport control a quick WhatsApp message keeps your driver informed. On the way back, the driver collects you from the hotel at an agreed time with enough margin for your flight from Krabi Airport.
Our vehicles for the Tubkaek Beach transfer
For this route we offer Sedan (1–3 passengers), Minivan (1–7 passengers) and Sprinter (8–13 passengers). The vans are Mercedes, Volkswagen, Ford Transit and Peugeot Traveller models, all recent, air-conditioned and cleaned between journeys, with proper luggage space rather than a crowded boot. Choose the vehicle by how many of you are travelling and how much luggage you bring; the desk will tell you if a larger vehicle would be more comfortable.
All vehicles are insured and driven by professional, licensed drivers who know the Krabi Airport to Tubkaek Beach road. Child seats are provided on request, and there is no extra charge for reasonable luggage.
The vehicle is chosen before the confirmation, not at the kerb, so there is no surprise at the door of Krabi Airport: what we agreed on WhatsApp is what is waiting, and if your luggage looks like it needs a bigger vehicle we say so before you pay.
Who books the Tubkaek Beach transfer
The Krabi Airport to Tubkaek Beach transfer suits anyone who values a plan: honeymooners heading for a hotel with more luggage than they admit, parents travelling with small children, friends sharing a Sprinter, colleagues on a work trip who need an invoice, and grandparents who would rather be met than find their own way. Because the price is per vehicle, the more of you there are the better it compares with taxis and tickets.
Many guests add a second leg later in the trip: a day out from Tubkaek Beach, an onward transfer or the return to Krabi Airport. It is all handled in the chat you already have open.
How to book your Tubkaek Beach transfer
Booking is simple: fill in the form on this page or message us on WhatsApp with your flight number, the date, the number of passengers and your hotel in Tubkaek Beach. A member of our team replies within minutes to confirm the price and the meeting point. Payment is arranged on WhatsApp as well, in whichever way suits you, and your confirmation is written down so nothing is left to memory.
Changes and cancellations are handled through the same WhatsApp conversation. Because the terms depend on conditions such as how close to the pickup time the request is made, our team will explain exactly what applies to your booking when you ask - always before any payment, never as a surprise afterwards.
Good to know before you land at Krabi Airport
Give us the exact name of your hotel, since Ao Nang, Nopparat Thara and Klong Muang lie in different directions, and for Railay, Phi Phi or Koh Lanta send your boat time so we plan the pickup around it.
Keep your phone charged and roaming or Wi-Fi on for the WhatsApp thread; the driver's number is in your confirmation and a message on landing at Krabi Airport is the quickest way to say you are through.
If you are two households or a group, say how many bags as well as how many people; luggage decides the vehicle more often than passengers do.
Tubkaek Beach to Krabi Airport: the return transfer
Heading back to Krabi Airport at the end of the stay is just as easy - tell us the flight time and the hotel, and a driver is at the door with time to spare. Many travellers also use the desk for a day trip or an onward transfer from Tubkaek Beach; everything is arranged in the same WhatsApp chat.
On departure day the desk suggests a pickup time from Tubkaek Beach based on your flight and the traffic expected at that hour, and confirms it in writing; if you would like to leave earlier for last-minute shopping or a meal near Krabi Airport, that is arranged in the same message.
Why travellers choose Haqqi Tours for Tubkaek Beach transfers
What guests tell us they value about the Krabi Airport to Tubkaek Beach transfer is the absence of surprises. The price they were quoted is the price they pay. The driver is where the confirmation said. The car is clean and the right size. And the WhatsApp desk that made the booking is still there, in Arabic and English, for the whole trip - for the return, a day out, or a question about Tubkaek Beach at any hour.
Pickup options and waiting time
When you book on WhatsApp, you choose one of two pickup options for your arrival:
- Flight tracking: your driver is at arrivals the minute your flight lands and waits for up to 60 minutes. If your flight lands at 2:00 pm, the driver is there at 2:00 pm.
- Fixed time (no tracking): your driver arrives at a time you choose and waits for up to 60 minutes from that time. Send us your flight number and we check its real landing times over the past 10 days to recommend the best pickup time.
At most airports the included waiting time is 60 minutes; at some it is 90 minutes. We confirm the exact waiting time for your airport when you book with us on WhatsApp. After that, the driver cannot wait longer: the fixed price is based on one hour of airport parking and the driver's time, and with more than 30 transfers a day, every booking is scheduled back to back.
With flight tracking, normal delays are covered. If your flight is delayed by more than 5 hours, we cannot guarantee a new pickup at the last minute, because the new arrival time is uncertain and other transfers are already scheduled. Message us as soon as the delay is announced: we always do our best to rearrange, but it depends on the number of bookings that day. With a fixed-time pickup, the time slot is reserved for you and cannot be changed on the day, even if your flight is delayed or something unexpected happens.
Two hours before your flight lands, we send you your driver's name and phone number on WhatsApp. If you are still in the air, the message will be waiting for you as soon as you switch on your phone. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
