Amazing fun tour - Amazing tour, we done the 7 hours hike and mountain bike tour. the tour guide( called A) was so good and he ‘s very experience. He was very patience and given us plenty of time to enjoy the hike. He pointed out the history of the track and join in the fun. We enjoyed very much.

A rewarding day out in nature - My partner and I had a great day out up in the mountainous jungle with our lovely guide Tui. We were picked up from our hotel in the morning, signed in at the company office where we chose our route for the day and then were driven out to where we began our hike. Due to the rainfall the night before we did an alternative route but it was still enriching. Tui spoke to us about the native trees and plants and he kindly offered to take photos along the way. There are some steep and muddy parts of this trek, which require some stamina and a decent level of fitness. After a few hours we made it to the village (due to the time of the year the summit was closed) and then to a nearby restaurant for a local lunch. We enjoyed seeing the temples, soaking in nature and learning more about Thai culture. This was a great out of the city excursion and Tui was a fabulous guide!

Take the Adventure Route! - My daughters & I had an awesome day with our guide A! It was only the 3 of us, so we were lucky to have him all to ourselves! Unfortunately the hike to the highest summit is closed right now, but we still hiked 2.5 miles and A said the elevation gain is about 800 meters. Very steep in sections! We brought along temple appropriate clothing (covered legs & shoulders) and put those on over hiking clothes along the way so we could visit the 2 temples. (And put them right back in our backpacks after!) A also took us to a village where we enjoyed local coffee and guided us on another hiking trail to a waterfall. Highly recommend!

Hike up bike down is a good combination - The two guides were supporting and guiding us through the dschungel . Always waiting for those little behind. We had enough breaks. The ascent was about 1000hm which needs good condition. Authentic Thai Lunch was provided on the summit. The down hill ride was definitely a highlight. Overall a tour for sportive people in overall good condition. i would recommend

A great experience!! I recommend - I was by chance alone with a guide, Hei (sorry for the mistake in the spelling of his name). He was very funny, careful all the way and he showed me around telling anecdotes and answering all my questions. He was very kind and I had an amazing experience, laughing and enjoying the wonderful nature! The hike itself was really what I expected, sporty and beautiful, the soup we had at the village in the Jungle was really good and their (own) coffee was delicious yet very strong. We finished with the temple visit which was nice but a bit short. The organisation in the morning to get there was a bit messy at the store but all good, it was not dramatic.

A worthwhile Trek - This was a really rewarding hike. I was picked up from my hotel around 9:30 am and after all the pick ups and formalities we started the hike around 10:30 am and I was dropped off at 6:30pm. Our guide Tui was warm and funny which definitely helped when the hike got challenging. There are some difficult elements of this hike including really steep points where you are effectively climbing up the mountain ! The views and nature are phenomenal and we didn’t even have clear skies. Recommended for anyone looking to break up their trip with a good balance of exercise and nature though you would need to be of reasonable fitness level!

Excillerating Hike & Bike - Interesting and demanding activity. Despite being physically very active, the uphill hike took me more than 3 hours navigating frequent 45 degree inclines on a narrow footpath. Lots of "breather" breaks needed. Very nice nature sceneries! Dirt biking down hill on a rutted and rain slippery dirt path certainly was exciting and requires good biking experience. Excillerating for sure!
