3.00I guess I misunderstood this trip. I thought it would be mostly on the river, canoeing etc. Turns out it's 62825272882569 stops to buy stuff, 5 minutes in a canoe, 15 mins on a boat. It is cheap though which is why I'm not giving it 2 stars.
Recommend it!

3.00We just came back from this trip today. It was just OK. Besides the pagoda, and the 5 min boat ride nothing was interesting. Our guide was also unfortunately not very engaged. It felt like he was just there to make sure that we were all on the bus. I don't recommend it
