Located in Thailand's southwestern province of Krabi, this is the original Thai rock climbing mecca.
Home to two of the most beautiful beaches on the planet, Railay / Tonsai is
world-famous among rock-climbers and is quite simply astoundingly beautiful.
The cliffs that cut the Railay / Tonsai pensinsula off from the rest of Thailand
free it from all motor traffic and protect the unique landscape.
The limestone cliffs of Thailand's magnificent Phra Nang peninsula
are the backdrop for Railay / Tonsai climbing.
The rock climbing at Railay / Tonsai offers routes of world class
quality for both beginners and experienced climbers.
Climbers of all abilities
will have an unbelievable time scaling these stalactite-dripping karst cathedrals.
The Railay / Tonsai climbing, from single to multi-pitch
climbs, is mostly right off the beach. Climbers can also climb on islands
scattered throughout Thailand's Phra Nang bay - routes which are not yet included in any guide
book.
After a day of Railay / Tonsai climbing, you can stroll to your
resort pool or the beach for a dip, then perhaps get a relaxation or
sports massage.
We at AA.com (that's Andaman Adventures, not Alcoholics Anonymous!), offer expert guidance to
select the most appropriate Railay / Tonsai climbing routes for your ability.
Tonsai suffers from significant environmental problems - click here for more.
We recommend climbers stay in Railay or in Ao Nang, a short boat-ride away, which offers way better variety and value for money for food, accomodation and day trips. Click here for Ao Nang resorts.

Note that this is a join-on day-trip, where you may well be in a group that includes people of a very different level to you. This means that you have to share a guide with other people, who often require different grade climbs to you. For this reason, this one day course is not recommended.
Private Guiding
If you can afford it, this is your best bet, as you get the undivided attention of your guide and don't have to share him with other people. We will make sure that you get a guide with at least 5 years experience of guiding on Railay, who we have personally climbed with and whose safety and experience we can vouche for. Multi-pich climbing is excluded from the price below, if you want this then contact us.
The following price is subject to availability. An elite guide costs THB 5,000 per day for one person.
