Very good tour, lots of activities to keep busy. Many beautiful sights and experiences. Good tour of eastern Thailand and the beach communities.
It was a quick trip with limited time in each location, but was a nice taste of southern Thailand.
Magical! This trip has been one of my most favourite memories!
This was our first group tour. Loved the small size and excursions. Puna made our trip special. She really took care of us and was so knowledgeable. Thank you Puna!
