I am planning to fly to Ranong to do my visa run, partly because after renewing the visa I have to go to Nakorn Si Tammarat.

However, I have some difficulties, mainly I do not have any map of the inside of Ranong, even after searching many bookstores in bangkok. I am going there basically blind, just based on my experiences and whatever info I can get.

Is it easy to find a hotel to stay overnight there after getting off from the airport? And after this hotel which preferably be near the airport, is it possible to get to the Amanda Club or port where I can make the visa run.

Once you get to the airport catch a cab or a Tuk Tuk and get to the Andaman Pier, there with a ferry you'll get to the Burmese Island where the Hotel is located http://www.andamanclub.com/index2.html .

Have a good trip.

OK,

1 I have never ever seen a tuk tuk in Ranong, lived here 5 years. Plenty of cheap places to stay in Ranong itself. 100 Baht and up.

2 Taxis if you are lucky. Not many of them either.

I would suggest a google search. The Kay Kai internet cafe who sells Air Asia flights also advertises an airport drop off/pick up at 200 Baht. He may be able to suggest a place depending on your price. Mr Att 862814766 mobile As for the run you have 2 choices. One is a run from the pier on Saphanpla road near immigration. Or the Club Andaman pier. I only have experience with the latter, and you would need dropping off and picking up.

Ranong airport is about 25 km outside of town, if your lucky your find a songtail who will take you to the pier. Or if you want they have a few places that do visa runs. A songtail is going to cost a good baht to get to town if one is there. I recommend you come by bus a lot cheaper and you arrive in the morning plenty of motorcycle taxis and songtails at the bus station to take you to the pier or to a shop for a visa run.
