Our guide (Tim / Thanh) was amazing. So knowledgeable, friendly and funny. He took the time to get to know guests, and made the experience memorable. Great day out. All of the food across the day was delicious, including the coconut water on the boat across to the islands. Came away feeling very full up. Bamboo boat rides were my favourite part. Also loved learning about how people made a living, including with the coconut candles. Would recommend!
