A very enjoyable tour

4.00The tour was largely as expected and very enjoyable on the whole. The pick up and drop off were on time and the transport was comfortable, with a good local guide. An additional stop at a bamboo products store was included. Only 2 of the 4 islands were visited, the other two were not even pointed out during the boat ride. The lunch was good, if a little rushed. Overall, a really enjoyable and worthwhile trip, but those with limited mobility will struggle with getting on and off the boats.
