5.00Two days of discovery with an excellent guide. Aryu knows his country well and shares it with passion. He is also an excellent cook who masters bamboo cooking and handles the machete very well! We are delighted to have been able to share these moments with him as well as with the Akha family who welcomed us. Genuine and lovely people. Thank you again, Aryu!! If you are looking for authenticity, go there with your eyes closed!!!

5.00Ayu was so knowledgeable and amazing guide, would highly recommend this excursion. Definately recommend remember to take sunscreen and mosquito spray, it wasn't bad but were some mosquitos. Overnight had the netting around our sleeping mat. We were used to walking, but this trek is hilly, so make sure get in shape before going. We had a fabulous time.
