We did a Bangkok temple tour and visit to bridge over the river Kwai. Pete was our tour guide and he is exceptional at what he does. He is very well known within the trade and if you’re with Pete you are a VIP. Kom was our driver and shuttled is to and from airport and our adventures! He is a great driver I would not want to drive there!

We used I Asia Thailand (we used them last year) and we rented a van with guide Woody and driver. We requested Woody after good comments and feedback. We did a 8 hour day trip and they were punctual, dressed well, excellent English and very informative. We started from Patong and made our way north before stopping for lunch and then east road back to the south to the many view points. The van was clean with great aircon and wifi!!!. We also had our own hand sanitiser and also wipes throughout the day. I would suggest and recommend I Asia Thailand to any family and friends. We would happily use their services again!

This limestone waterfall is the only one of its kind in Thailand. Once you’re there, we’ll go for a cool, refreshing swim, as well as getting to know why the waterfall lives up to its name. The surface really is sticky!! Come with me and let’s climb the waterfall’s limestone surface and make a splash in the pool! Not only that, we’ll have a local picnic for lunch right by the waterfall surrounded by lush greenery. This is your chance to absorb the tranquil nature that Chiang Mai is known for. I’m sure that you’ll soon know why this is the unique place in Chiang Mai to relax!

This experience was amazing. Sunshine was the best host I could asked for. She really went out of her way to make the tour enjoyable and special. She was amazingly good at photography, she has a special skill of finding the best photo opportunities and locations, making the tour feel interactive and different. Would recommend for groups or single travellers (I did the experience solo) as it truly is breathtaking. Beautiful location, there’s a market you go to and a very cool waterfall. Great value for money. 100/10

This is the high water mark for authentic experiences I have encountered in Asia over the years. This is NOT a cooking class, this is FAR FAR more. The cooking component is maybe 30% of the experience. This is an immersive experience with a real rural family, inside their lovely home compound and gardens, learning about their history and way of life. You have tea, chew betelnut in their pavilions, wander the gardens nibbling on plants and herbs, and yes finally you all cook together outdoors on a clay pot / charcoal system like in the old school. Then you eat together. If you want a commercial, soulless, cookie-cutter cooking class, there are plenty. But this experience is far more comprehensive, soulful, and unforgettable.

You will hear lot of histories about elephants behavior in their first "natural experience". This sanctuary is the first place where the people teach them how to behave like elephants, is a little bit sad to know what happened to them and how the workers need to teach how to be elephants again, by their own. Some of them were worn under cautevry so is like teaching to a baby that they need to live.
