Passeios por Ran-Tong Save & Rescue Elephant Centre

Thank you, Mr. Poppy, for this day! A raft ride, a visit to the elephant farm, preparing their food, and making friends with them through their stomachs ^^. A short walk with one of them who followed us. He took his little mud bath. An incredible experience, Mr. Poppy explained everything very well to us. And we finished with a really fun waterfall. I recommend it! Thank you again.

Dantewada is like a fairytale setting: it's truly beautiful, and they even have rabbits and goats. Our tour guide, AT, helped us capture the best pictures and gave us a bonus – a generous amount of delicious oranges. We were supposed to be dropped off at the meeting point, but he was very kind and dropped us off at our hotel instead, as it was only a 20-minute walk away.

This Old Town day tour was truly excellent value, all thanks to our guide, Michael Jackson (who calls himself the Takeshi Kaneshiro of Thailand)! He was full of energy all day, and his professionalism was simply perfect. He is Thai, but speaks both Chinese and English extremely fluently. Especially when explaining dynastic history in Chinese, his logic was very clear, and there were absolutely no communication barriers. What impressed us most was that he even brought his own exquisite historical materials and before-and-after comparison photos, allowing us to compare the ancient sites with their past appearance. History instantly came alive, no longer just looking at stone buildings. During the tour, he also patiently taught us to speak Thai. Under the scorching Bangkok sun, he always thoughtfully helped us find shady spots for photos and explanations, making our trip relaxed and comfortable. We truly hope every group can encounter such an excellent guide like Michael Jackson. He added so much to this trip! If you have the chance to join this tour, be sure to specifically request this "Takeshi Kaneshiro of Thailand"!

The best way to enjoy Phuket is definitely island hopping and water activities, but the boat rides can be quite long, so make sure you get enough sleep the night before, otherwise, the boat trip the next day will be unbearable. It's recommended to book your tour online in advance; they will contact you via email to arrange hotel pick-up times. We had a comfortable 9-seater shared ride. Upon arrival at the pier, there were coffee, drinks, some small biscuits, and toast, so those who didn't have time for breakfast could eat there. Bottled water was available for free on the boat, and lunch was a buffet on Phi Phi Island. On the return trip, fruit was provided. If you don't plan on making additional purchases, you don't need to bring too much money. At the end, the guide asked each person for a tip (you can choose not to give one), which felt a bit awkward, but I was very grateful to the captain and crew, so I did tip them.

Luxurious boat. Helpful staff to make people to snorkeling who are not so confident. Good food. Only drawback is since the boat is big it cannot go near the shore so you don't get to get down at any of the beach side.

It was a good trip to experience Thai culture and see their lifestyle. I just hope we travelled earlier because traffic was bad. Nevertheless, it was really fun! Aum and Bank were such incredible guides. Buffalo Cafe is a great side trip as well. ♥️

เรามีช่วงเวลาที่ยอดเยี่ยมในการล่องเรือครั้งนี้กับไกด์ของเรา มิกกี้ และลูกเรือ พวกเขาจัดระเบียบได้ดีมากและใส่ใจเวลาและประสบการณ์ของทุกคน! ฉันขอแนะนำการเดินทางหนึ่งวันนี้เป็นอย่างยิ่ง ขอบคุณค่ะ 🙏🏻

A long day (picked up at 7:30 and back at 8pm) but well worth it. We had not booked to go into long neck village but all the money goes back into the village so we decided to go & it was great. White temple is stunning & loved the black house.
