Exceeded expectations

Bobo was a great tour guide for our day trip. He had lots of energy and kept the day moving to schedule. The day exceeded expectations. The 2 hour nature walk was not strenuous but lots of steps and uneven surface.

Great view

Great natural view for the P trail. There’s local guide is very friendly. Showed us the snake and helped to take a lot of photos. There’s a strawberry farm. At the end of the trail, there’s a coffee brewing place and the beans are very northern Thailand. The native locals are making some clothes as well as souvenirs on the spot. Good to support the business

A Passionate Guide and a Memorable Adventure

I had a delightful experience on the tour, thoroughly enjoying the session with Mint, who was an outstanding guide. His passion and enthusiasm for his work were truly inspiring, and he did a fantastic job explaining the background of the trail. While the minibus wasn't the comfiest for longer rides, it was manageable, especially when it wasn't packed. A minor hiccup was the brief market tour and the pick-up situation—I struggled to find someone to confirm the waiting point, and we missed being picked up at our preferred spot. The lunch was simple but filling, featuring chicken without pork or beef—perfectly okay, though not mind-blowing. Overall, it was a memorable adventure!

Great people poor guide!

Met some wonderful people on this tour but it was badly let down by the guide whose English (this was sold as including an English speaking guide) was very poor. Everyone in our group was disappointed with her quality of English and she appeared very rude to guests at times but we all put this down to her lack of English !! Had it not been for our fellow guests the tour would have been a complete disaster!

Easy forest experience

A wonderful trail in the forest. Opportunity to understand more about Karen tribe everyday living. It's not very hard to walk. Many waterfalls. In the end you can enjoy local coffee.

Good for slow, elderly people

If we had known we would spend 5 hours in the van, we would never have joined this trip. This trip is ok for elderly people. If you look for dynamics and adventure, don’t do it. The hike was a slow stroll, a few meters behind another group. The guide was a sweet man, no complaints about him. But I feel misguided by the description of this tour.
