The tour was really nice. First we went to the waterfall Haew Narok, which was a short hike down and up the stairs. After this hike there was the possibility to grab some local thai lunch, which tasted great! Hereafter we continued the tour around the Haew Su Wat Waterfall, this was a somewhat longer hike of 3.5 km with some small heightdifferences. During this hike there was plenty of time to take pictures and look around this beautiful jungle. Our tourguide Angie, was really wonderull, she told lots of information about Thailand on our way towards the national park. During the trip she provided also many facts about the places and nature of the area. She was also very entertaining and funny, and even made many group pictures on the best spots. She truly made it a fun and enjoyable tour. Surely a experience never to forget!!

This tour was awesome! We were with a very small group (2 couples in total) and had such a great time. Our guide Pokpong was friendly, funny and could answer all my questions about the Thai lifestyle and faith. We had a lot of time on every stop and Pokpong made a lot of pictures of us, we have such good memories of this trip. The surroundings were beautiful and this is so much more fun then the regular bike tour. Highly recommended when you’re in Bangkok! Thank you Pokpong!

Our guide Angie at this tour was great. We get many information about Thailand, the people and their culture. We had a lot of fun and enjoyed the company. The Pick up and the whole tour was well prepared. Angie did her best to take wonderful pictures of us. We saw a lot of animals and vegetation. We would recommend this tour 100% when you will see a lot of the National Park and have a very good time.

The guide Narinya (hope I'm writing it correctly) was very nice and passionate about the Thai nature. She helped me with everything I needed. The park is quite far from Bangkok but it's totally worth the long drive. Bring food and good walking shoes with you!

The trip was amazing and Angie is a superstar. We enjoyed every minute. Highly recommend - Matt
