Visitor Reviews
Krabi Night Market is one of those places in Krabi that is absolutely worth visiting at least once. It is open only from Friday to Sunday. There, you can stroll around, buy souvenirs, enjoy live music, and taste an incredible variety of delicious food. The Krabi Night Market has a fantastic food zone, where numerous stalls are lined up side by side, offering a wide selection of Thai cuisine. You can try many different dishes in small portions, making it easy to sample a lot of flavors. While listening to music, you can walk along the food stalls, enjoy beer, juices, and cocktails, and also taste a wide range of very delicious desserts. In short, this is one of the must-visit places for every tourist visiting Krabi.
I really enjoyed visiting Aonang Night Market! There were lots of food stalls with delicious local dishes and snacks. The atmosphere was lively with music and friendly vendors. Great place to experience local culture and try Thai street food. Highly recommended for an evening walk!
The best market we visited while in Thailand. Not as touristy as other cities, you actually see locals eat everywhere and the prices are cheaper too. Had some good food with nice portions :)

Haggle at Markets, Not Malls
Prices at market stalls are negotiable — start at 50–60% of the asking price and meet in the middle. Fixed-price shops and malls don't haggle. Smile and keep it friendly; aggressive bargaining is considered rude.
Arrive Early or Late
Vendors believe the first sale of the day is lucky — you'll often get a better deal if you arrive right when the market opens. Late in the evening, sellers may also discount to avoid packing unsold goods.
Be Cautious with Tailors
Bangkok has excellent tailors, but also many tourist traps. Avoid anyone offering suspiciously cheap suits or who approaches you on the street. Ask your hotel for recommendations, read reviews, and always get two fittings.
