Honest insights from past guests on our Cultural, religious and historic sites Thailand tours
Martha A. | Traveled in April
The whole trip was memorable. From day one to the last. The tuk tuk ride, riverboat ride, temples, Buddha statues, were all interesting. Our rour guide was awesome. She gave us historical facts about the sites we visited. I really enjoyed the food and the people especially.

The tour was generally good. Some of the accomodations weren't the best, for example they were far away from everything so there was only one place for meals (at the hotel), and some were just not very clean. However, others were really great--so I guess part of travelling in that part of the world. I think it would have been better to have one local guide for the whole trip, rather than a guide from somewhere else with various local guides--but again it was fine. Two main things I would like to see changed would be to have more variety of sights--mostly just totally touristy and second, a number of us talked about having hotels that quoted prices for meals etc. in USD (and explore had their tip prices in USD. This is bad for the countries that are struggling with their economies--so we should be paying in their currencies.

Travelling to Laos and Cambodia in the dry season has its advantages ( less heat, mosquitoes) but equally dry and dusty roads, desolate countryside. Travelling becomes more observational than leisurely. The local guides were very good, dedicated in giving us the best of what the itinerary had to offer, maybe this is what is referred to as the highlights, and the in depth. The proposed itinerary should be reviewed as it leaves out some great sites, that would be favorable add ons when in the dry season where nature, and waterfalls are not so spectacular.
