Customer reviews & ratings
I had a great time in Thailand and Vietnam and was able to get to know the culture, the food and the locals. Even though it was sometimes a bit exhausting to travel further almost every day, you had the opportunity to see a lot of the country. The activities offered were very varied. I really had a great time on my trip and enjoyed meeting and traveling with new people and having a local tour guide
Lisa Sep, 2024 VerifiedThere is no better way to really experience a country, than with a local guide that does not hold back, but puts the spotlight on the distinct features of a culture, while at the same time bridging the gap to ?western? tourists, so they don?t get a culture shock. Its the only one I know, and it was great.
