Tour Reviews

Our guide and driver for the first 3 days were excellent. We also really enjoyed Khao Sok and our guide there was great. It would have been nice to visit the lake in Khao Sok which was on the trip notes. The food was delicious but as there was only the 2 of us we could have done with less food.

My trip was great. It was extremely hot but I enjoyed the tour very much and mostly everything went very smoothly. I really appreciated the guide making sure the restaurants used gluten free sauce for the meals. I hope you can pass onto the tour company that I was happy with the food and the effort by the hotels and restaurants that we went to. I know the group I was travelling with were unhappy with some aspects of the food but I just wanted to note that I thought it was all great.
