This was one of my... - This was one of my favourite tours so far, while I have been in Thailand. Our tour guide, Ms Chin was absolutely wonderful. She was so friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. The Tsunami memorial was really informative and the staff once again, really helpful. The Sunday Market was brilliant. So much to see and eat and it was do cheap! The visit to the beautiful Buddist Temple made for a really serene experience and I cannot recommend this tour enough.

Learning a little - Great trip! Definitely recommend. Lots of variety and you learn a little about the area and the people and their resilience. The Tsunami Museum was very interesting and the exhibits allowed an insight into what happened as well as the how. You are able to walk in, around the temple as well as seeing the monks go about their daily lives. The old town is great to see the link between the old and the new as well as trying as much or little street food as you would like. We loved our trip.

Lovely and interesting tour with a great tour guide! - Really nice tour to the Tsunami Museum ( not “nice” but insightful), to the beautiful Wat Khong Kha Pimuk (temple), and to Takua Pa Sunday Market. Because of the rain the market wasn’t as packed with stalls as it normally would be so our wonderful guide Robert took us to a local tea house and brought as an array of treats from the market to try! Robert spoke English really well, the best we’ve heard from a Thai tour guide/hospitality person on our trip; and he was friendly and insightful throughout the whole trip and made it engaging! Before the tour we were worried that the heavy rain will be a downer on the tour but he made sure we were having a good time and gave us lots of good historical insights into the places we went. I’d highly recommend this tour!

Fantastic Temple and Old Town Tour - Robert collected us from our resort for our half day tour visiting two local temples and the Takuapa old town. He is a fantastic guide and very friendly. We enjoyed learning all about Buddhism and the temples were just amazing. We then visited Takuapa old town and had lovely juice and snack at a local cafe called "Kopi Kuapa." A highly recommend tour.

Temples, coffee and a waterfall - Robert was a wonderful guide. Very friendly and knowledgeable. We were fortunate to watch part of an ordination ceremony for a Buddhist monk. Drank coffee at a locally-owned coffee shop. Ended our tour by walking to a waterfall. An absolutely remarkable morning out.

Temple and Old Town tour - I only gave it 4 stars as I thought when I booked it , it included a visit to a local waterfall. The temples and old town were good but our guide , Robert and Jo, our driver were excellent. I was disappointed that the waterfall was not included, however Robert our guide took us to see it so we would not be disappointed. Robert was excellent- his local knowledge was great and he gave us lots of information about Thailand itself which we really enjoyed. If this review was about Robert alone , I would have given it 5 stars.
