Top Bangkok Private and Luxury - page 59

We had a wonderful tour with Poppy! She was great with taking us through the train market and floating market. She made sure our daughter was taken care of and let us know not to overpay at certain locations. She pre arranged special treats throughout the trip, such as coconut ice cream, feeding fish, mango sticky rice and more. She was accommodating in starting the tour earlier for us last minute and truly appreciate her care.

Pickup was on time. Nice, friendly and kind guide Ms. Surin or Mam and driver Mr. Jirawat. I am a solo traveler and another person in the group is also a solo traveler. We got to do and see all things listed including 2 main waterfalls and a trekking. Almost at the end of the trekking I requested a little detour to see a nearby smaller waterfall and the guide let the group there since we had time. While climbing steep stairs at two major waterfalls and trekking, Ms. Surin pays attention to travelers’ safety. On the way there she bought us small mosquitoes repellent spray and wipe as there could be a lot of mosquitoes. She warned us of blood sucking leech in wet area and under leaves. She watched out and listened for snake. She allows us to take our time and warn us which area could be slippery and dangerous. At the same time she kept her eyes and ears out for wild animals. We saw 4 hornbills (2 different kinds), dears, monkeys, black squirrels. The driver and the guide drove us around to try to find elephants but we didn’t have luck. On the way back to Bangkok I requested to stop at a fruit stand along the road and we got to try and buy fresh and delicious Durian, Pamello, Mangosteens, Salak at a very good price much cheaper than those sold in Bangkok. I had a wonderful day. I often travel alone and having good companies while traveling made the trip memorable. I recommend this one day trip if you don’t have much time but want to enjoy the rich wilderness of Thailand without much exhaustion.

What a great tour — truly a highlight of the trip. Luck was a stupendous guide: incredibly knowledgeable about the history and culture, while also being friendly, personable, and engaging throughout. I consider myself fairly well traveled, and I genuinely learned a great deal on this tour. The driver was excellent as well, and the vehicle’s AC was an absolute godsend this time of year. Cannot recommend highly enough.
