Greetings To All Blog Readers,

Happy To Find Mythailandtours At Facebook Also.

The Phi Phi Islands are located in Thailand, between the large island of Phuket and the western Andaman Sea coast of the mainland. The islands are administratively part of Krabi province. Ko Phi Phi Don ("ko" meaning "island" in the Thai language) is the largest island of the group, and is the only island with permanent inhabitants, although the beaches of the second largest island, Ko Phi Phi Lee (or "Ko Phi Phi Leh"), are visited by many people as well. The rest of the islands in the group, including Bida Nok, Bida Noi, and Bamboo Island (Ko Mai Phai), are not much more than large limestone rocks jutting out of the sea.

Phi Phi Islands are supposed to be one of the most beautifully dramatic locations in the world. The scenery at the surface gives a fantasizing experience to the visitors without any doubt. This is the soft corals, black corals, long stringy sea whips, large orange colored fans and there are many other species available in the waters of these islands. It really gives a heavenly experience when you go underneath the sea in these islands.

There is no need to worry if you do not know the scuba diving as you will do it under the guidance of an expert trainer. Besides, there are also some brilliant scuba diving courses in Phuket, which can provide you elementary or expert level trainings.

Thailand is lovingly called "Land of Smiles". It is amazingly beautiful dotted with scintillating tourism attractions, exotic beauty of the beaches, rich culture and traditions, superb fascinating attractions, throbbing nightlife and much more. It is home to some of the enticing tourism attractions and so it the reason why thousands and hundreds of tourists from across the nook and corner of the world come to Thailand to enjoy vacations in a delightful and memorable way.

Since Thailand is featured with its marvelous beaches, the country has quite a notable number of beaches that can accommodate a huge number of tourists who travel to Thailand. There is the famous Railay Beach, this popular peninsula that is not accessible except by boats due to the limestone rocks that surround from every direction. This is among the most recommended beaches that travelers who spend their holidays in Thailand enjoy.

Krabi province is one of the most spectacularly beautiful places to visit in Thailand. The main town is quite ordinary and really nothing too exciting happens here, it's like a normal Thai town, not really catering for the tourists. When you move to the beaches you find an array of resorts, restaurants, bars and beaches. One of the most popular beaches in Krabi is Ao Nang. This is a vibrant resort but also where boats usually pick up and drop off on route to the many islands. There are a number of islands to visit including Phi Phi, Chicken Island and James Bond Island.

Phuket is by far one of the most over developed and commercialized areas of Thailand so if your idea of a vacation is to party hard all night and sleep all day then Patong Beach in Phuket is the place to go. There are numerous beer bars, clubs and go-go bars along one big stretch of road, but this is expanding all the time. Prices in Patong area quite expensive, even more than Bangkok but it is the 1 place in the south that everyone goes to party.

The Honda bike has a comfortable sitting position while the KTM bike has a taller stance which may be uncomfortable during long rides. But the Duke is 20 kg lighter than CBR 250R.

While the factors like being a proper naked bike with stunning performance and excellent styling works in favour of the Duke 200, certain other factors like high engine vibrations and low mileage works against it. Additionally, the seat of the Duke 200 is comfortable only for the rider. The pillion will find the ride highly uncomfortable, more so on long rides.
