Danny was an awesome guide!! Him and the drivers have a great sense of humour, very knowledgeable about all the temples and even gave us some Durian Sticky Rice to try out during the buffet! The entire tour was pretty good. Due to rain and traffic, we were slightly late to everything and some of the itinerary had to be changed because of it. But Danny made sure we saw everything and even took some amazing shots of everyone!! Highly recommend!

We had the most amazing day with our tour guide Sunny. He is very enthusiastic, talented, and took good care of us. I have never had a tour guide like him before. The service he provides from the heart truly sets him apart from others. 🫶 From excellent service, great trivia, handmade bamboo crafts, special sky lantern activity over sunset in the middle of rice fields, to his careful driving - this day tour is one of the most incredible experiences I've had so far as a frequent traveller. Anybody would be lucky to have Sunny as guide. The tour itinerary itself is packed with unique and grand temples (something the Thai are really good at) and cultural/historical significance. It was also an awe inspiring experice to meet the "Kayang" (long neck tribe) women and to realize that those rings are actually heavy! What a sacrfice to wear those daily from a very young age. Lunch was a great selection of organically grown healthy and yummy food 👍

If you have limited time for independent travel, booking a day trip is a great option to visit the White Temple, Blue Temple, and Instagram-worthy cafes all in one go! Highly recommended! It's a very fulfilling day trip. Our guide, Wan, was very friendly and provided detailed explanations. She speaks English and Chinese, so communication was no problem!
