Loved the boat ride and the smaller boat round the smaller rivers. Very interesting seeing toffee and rice paper made in the more manual way. Can't say I enjoyed the lunch but that was a personal choice as I'm not keen on fish. Great spread of food for those who do enjoy fish.
Guide was great, very informative and helpful.
