This was one of the best Tours I have been on in my life! The amount of activities that we got to do for the time and price was incredible. I felt like the tour was a week long as we did so much. the guides; Chow and Mr Hieu were absolute professionals. nothing was too much trouble and they really both went out of their way to make so much effort and energy to ensure we had the best time. everything was effortless for us as guests. we did not get pushed to buy things or pay extra monies for tips to activity providers. the tours were super relaxed and not pressured. the farm is heaven in the jungle and the accomodation is absolutely beautiful and so comfortable and clean. I loved playing volleyball with the family and eating the delicious home cooking. overall I think this tour is absolutely amazing and highly recommend it. thank you to chow and Mr Hieu for all their efforts , I will be returning again for sure!
