An incredible and appalling experience of getting to know the Thai culture, the temples are very beautiful and the whole nature and green area around gives a very beautiful air. The giant statues we saw are brutal, the panoramic views over beaches and eventually the waterfalls that were great too. Highlight also the excellent conditions of the carriage that was leading us point by point during this guided tour, with water always possible to be provided to us I recommend!

Guide Yai and driver Rin were nice but otherwise the highlight tour was a bit disappointing. The places visited were, apart from the temples, not really worth seeing
Bedankt voor uw eerlijke feedback. Fijn om te horen dat Yai en chauffeur Rin een positieve indruk hebben gemaakt. Het spijt ons dat de tour als geheel niet volledig aan uw verwachtingen voldeed. We waarderen uw opmerkingen en zullen deze met ons team delen om onze tours verder te verbeteren. Bedankt dat u uw ervaring met ons heeft gedeeld.

Our tour guide,Tor, was very informative with lots of great stories about all the places we visited, The driver,Nay, was great at navigating around the sites.
