Fantastic experience for the little ones! My 3 kids (ages 3, 4 and 6) had so much fun trekking on pony-back with Sarah, Mon and Monica. It was the first time my youngest kids have been on a pony and yet we felt perfectly comfortable and safe on such well-behaved, calm ponies. My daughter was especially thrilled by her pony, Ali, and pink saddle. We met the guides, Sarah and Monica at the Silver Naga hotel and they drove us via Tuk Tuk to the farm where we were greeted by chickens and a puppy. We were never in doubt that the kids were in safe hands - they loved passing ducks and cows and waving to people they past. Despite what turned into torrential rain, all three kids commented that it was the BEST thing they did on holiday and are eagerly looking forward to the next time. Highly recommended.

I went up the trek while it was raining and I was pleasantly surprised that nobody was here. The drive up was bumpy but bearable. The hike up was very muddy but we could still go up carefully without slipping and it wasn't that far. There was a mini waterfall before we got up. but the actual waterfall was gorgeous and since it just rained it was flowing very hard. It wasn't super difficult to get to and not very touristy unlike the blue lagoons so I definitely recommend.
