Although we were the only couple on the tour it was great to have a personal tour with the Guide. Our Tour Guide and Driver were great and they looked after us really well. Had an amazing lunch at a restaurant at Andaman Viewpoint. Visited a number of Temples which were incredible. Also saw a traditional market which was interesting. We had a great day.

It sounds like you had an amazing, private tour. Leaving the big groups behind always makes for a much more personal experience. I am happy to hear that our team were able to help make your day memorable.
I hope we will be seeing you again very soon!

We had a great day with Garfield who was highly knowledgeable and informative about the temples, the market and the farm. He looked after our needs very well and was very kind and accommodating. Highly recommend this tour and company.

Garfield, unser Guide, war wirklich super nett und hat uns viele Interessante Dinge über die Tempel, Mönche und Buddha erzählt. Der Stop im letzten Tempel war für uns aber zu lange. 1,5h bei über 30 Grad stehen und zuhören war doch etwas zuviel des Guten.
Leider war der Markt geschlossen und somit konnten wir den nicht besuchen. Aber gerade auch deswegen haben wir die Tour gebucht.
Dementsprechend waren wir etwas enttäuscht.

Thank you for writing this review. We really appreciate your feedback on the tour, and I'm sorry to hear that the last temple stop was longer than expected, and the market was closed, leading to some disappointment. Your input is valuable for us to improve our services. We'll take this into consideration to make necessary adjustments to the trip for a better experience in the future.
I also apologize for the lack of information about the market closure. We understand the importance of such updates and try to ensure guests are well-informed about any changes that may affect their tour experience. Unfortunately, on this occasion, we were also un-informed about the market closure in advance. We will work on improving our communication channels to ensure this does not happen again.
Your feedback is instrumental in helping us enhance our services. If you have any specific suggestions or preferences for future tours or communication improvements, please feel free to let us know. We want to ensure that your next experience with Discovery Travel is a seamless and enjoyable one.
