A customer tour

This tour package allows you to customize your tour. You are able to pick what you want and not waste time on the things you’re not interested in. Our driver was very detailed-oriented and knowledgeable of all sites visited.

Fantastic experience with Ketoot

We had a fantastic time being driven by Ketoot, who was an incredibly knowledgeable and friendly guide for the day. He was able to craft a wonderful day out of the possible locations/itineraries our group of 4 had listed out, and offered fascinating insights into the history and cultural context for each site we visited, while also being a charismatic and engaging speaker and companion for the day. The only slight challenge for the day was that our accommodation location was not recognised by the website at the time of booking (despite being in the eligible pickup area), so we had to pick the closest villa available in the search list for our pickup location, which was a 10 minute walk away from us. This was not an issue but led to some slight confusion for the pickup, as Ketoot waited for us inside the villa gates while we stood outside, and we did not see him initially. We would highly recommend this tour (and especially Ketoot!!!) for anyone wanting an efficient and enjoyable way to explore various attractions and sites in a short period of time.

Great trip, great guide

What a wonderful experience we had. We were allowed to go away with Komang for a day. He has done everything and more to make the day unforgettable. He thought along and gave ideas to make the day even more fun and efficient. The tour was great, the good guide more than finished it. 10/10 would recommend it to anyone! We will even go out again on Thursday! 😍
