5.00Ploy was excellent. She took great care of our group. Loved that she communicated what would happen throughout the day and she always had those things to help at the right moment- tissue, water, wipes. She made the trip an enjoyable one

5.00Katie was an exceptional guide from the time she picked us up to when she and the driver dropped us off. We are a family of 6. She explained so much on the way from Bangkok and took photos of us the entire time. Aside from Katie being amazing the tour itself and everything we experienced was so much fun! We loved the floating markets, the salt fields, the train ride and markets along the way. We bought a lot of gifts to take home and even ate at a fantastic restaurant that Katie recommended. It was beautiful and delicious. If you want to enjoy your experience make sure to ask for Katie! Thank you!
