It ended up raining as we through the rainforest, but that seemed to only add to the trip. Thank goodness it was at the end because everyone was soaked, but everyone was happy. The glow worms were definitely the highlight of the trip. Along with the stop for lunch on your own at the cute little town before the glow worms. Highly enjoyed my time.

It was a memorable trip. Our guide Brian was very friendly and knowledgeable. He knew the places, the trees, why they are important and so on. The group was also nice. I would conclude by saying the trip is a value for the money we paid.

Everything was well organised and ran smoothly. Brian is very knowledgeable about all we saw in the Rainforest and made it a very interesting tour. Highly recommend this tour for sure.

All the travel sights in this tour only require short driving distance and the atmosphere of the rainforests are beautiful and cozy to walk

The guide was informative and kept everything on time.
