Really enjoyed this tour. Luckily it had stopped raining by the time we reached the monkeys. Please remember if you intend to feed the monkeys wear dark clothes because you will get dirt all over you. The meal was plentiful and we met some nice people. We did get to see the fireflies which was awesome. The guide on this tour was also great.

Both myself and husband enjoyed this tour. Nardia looked after all the group needs tirelessly. It was fun to react with the monkeys. The dinner was relaxing, sitting by the water enjoying a Chinese meal with other group members and then on to see the fireflies which I had never seen before. A highlight of my holiday.

nature is the best healer! The decision to go on the tour was absolutely correct. the whole tour was held in a comfortable mode, thanks to a very nice girl guide - Nadia. she very correctly conducted a conversation with all the guests of the tour, and unfunnyly plunged into the history of the region.

Really enjoyed it. The last part watching the fireflies was exceptional. Very well organised and friendly guide.

The whole trip was fabulous! Mathew was a super tour guide who went above and beyond!
