great from start to finish! Amy called to confirm when they'll come to pick us up and came right on time to our doorstep. waterfalls: great! 4 lvls of difficulty, which was marked but not while you're on the falls. we ended up doing the 4th (difficult) one. Be careful! it stops being sticky halfway through so you end up climbing vertically on a slippery slope. you can abort by moving left, there's a small hidden path with makeshift stairs (don't step on the planks though, they're all moss too) elephants: we went to New Home Sanctuary, which used to be an elephant riding spot (named something different). Amy clearly explained how the park was changed after the new owner took over (son of previous owner) as the new one prioritized elephant care. elephants know commands and follows them well. NO HOOKS were used. carers let elephants lead - we had one extra elephant come to join the bathing coz she saw her carer there, and another one who wanted to stay longer and they were both allowed.

The tour was amazing (not to mention unreal for its price that also includes a lunch and multiple bottles of water)! Our guide was AJ, and in case you get him as your guide as well, just know that you’ll have an incredible time! He is very informative, funny and such a kind, nice soul and we truly couldn’t have asked for a better guide. The transportation and the driver were great, the locations were beautiful and the stories behind them were, of course, really interesting (and once again, AJ was such a joy to have as a guide!) Would definitely recommend going on it if you’re interested in Thai culture!

We had an amazing experience and would definitely recommend as an authentic Thai cooking class option in Phuket. A good little market tour and explanation of the food, a great group experience cooking, Woody is really informative and the staff are really supportive. And the meals we made were amazing!

Our tour was amazing! Our guide was Bill and he was brilliant 👏 He shared interesting information with us and made us laugh as well. The food was so good and well picked out for the tour. Would definitely recommend 👌

I don't have anything to respond as I believe it was a great time.
