Thoroughly recommended

5.00This trip is a full day with so much packed in. From a walk through the museum site at Hellfire Pass to a fast longboat trip along the River Kwai it's absorbing and interesting. For such a variety of experiences you need a good guide, and our guide called O was exceptional. Her knowledge was second to none and combined with her excellent English we got a lot from the day. This was an excellent trip which we would thoroughly recommend.
Fabulous and emotional

5.00Had an exciting day climbing to the top of the Erewan Falls trying to keep up with our excellent guide Nanny.Be warned its hard work and you should have suitable footwear,but it's worth the effort.There was plenty of Thai food for lunch.Hellfire Pass was a sobering look at a grim past.Then a short ride on the train to Wampo before the mini van back to town.A full days experience highly recommended. Just don't let it rain :)
