Our tour with the legendary and perfect tour guid Tan was 100% perfect! Our first stop to the Emerald Pool would have been enough for a memorable and great experience. One of the many highlights was Tan spotting a sleeping black viper. Tan gave us many interesting insight into the nature and animal world. After a delicious meal and the buffet, we headed to the hot pools. Tan showed us a less-crowded place and after a f***in hot bath, we took a nap in the van (by the way: our driver Enjoy was the BEST driver EVER) to refuel our batteries for the main event. We climbed 1260 to the top of the Tiger Cave Temple which was absolutely incredible. The way to the top (with advice and encouragement given by Tan) and the viewpoint were breathtaking (no pun intended) and a trip we will never forget. We are a family of three and our 6-year-old daughter loved the tour as well. Tan was super kid-friendly and took extra care of our beloved one. All in all, we highly recommend doing this tour.

Beautiful experience, impeccable organization both to and from the hotel and in travel. Special mention goes to our guide named Natty who managed to make this day beautiful and fun but culturally interesting at the same time. The team was professional and always attentive to the needs of the participants, from drinks on board to mats for the beach. I would say that recommending them is the minimum!

Everything was perfect! All the stops was very interesting and we had enought time to take photos and check everything. The lunch buffet had a lot of different options and the food was really good! The snacks and water was also included! Everything was organised very well, would really recommend this tour!

Once in a lifetime experience, as said by my husband. We loved the canoe trip. It was so serene, relaxing and transported us to a different land. Also the caves. The team managing our trip was super cooperative, systematic and very polite and sweet.

Amazing experience! Our host was Emma and she was amazing!
